What can businesses learn from price comparison sites?

I have been asked this question countless times by small businesses who are reluctant to develop apps for their customers.

Some of the advantages I have listed below.


Search, browse and compare products. Search by product name, UPC, manufacturer's part number, or just about anything you can think of. You can also browse through our product categories and see what’s most popular.

Sort by Price, rating or popularity. Filter search results to refine your product discovery. Enter your zip code to see price which includes tax and shipping.
Scan barcodes to find products from thousands of retailers.
