LiveDeal Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2012 Financial Results

LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwire -08/23/12)- LiveDeal, Inc. (LIVE), a provider of local Internet marketing services and mobile technology solutions for small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), today provided commentary on its strategic growth initiatives and unaudited financial results for its third quarter of fiscal year 2012, ended June 30, 2012.

Fiscal Third Quarter Financial and Recent Business Highlights

"During our third quarter, we continued our strategic transition to web-based mobile marketing tools for SMBs. At the same time, we maintained tight expense controls to reduce our operating loss, generated positive cash flow and significantly narrowed our net loss to near break-even," said Jon Isaac, Chief Executive Officer of LiveDeal. "We expect our focus on mobile solutions to provide our company with predictable, recurring revenue streams, with minimal capital expenditures and the necessary structure to support expansion as we grow our business. We are already rolling out our first new mobile tool, InstantProfile, a high-margin, subscription-based product that enables businesses to easily establish a customized, mobile Internet presence, and better feature their profiles on Internet search engines and mobile directory listings. Our initial marketing efforts will be focused on local restaurants. We have a strong foothold in the local commerce market, and plan to exploit our substantial cross-selling opportunities with our thousands of customers. Initial market reception for InstantProfile has been encouraging and we expect to see an immediate financial impact beginning in our fourth quarter, with more meaningful top- and bottom-line gains in our fiscal 2013."

Fiscal Third Quarter Financial Results

Net revenues were $0.8 million, compared with $1.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to the ongoing suspension of new sales efforts as part of LiveDeal's strategic decision to explore new sales programs and improve its marketing and fulfillment services.

Gross profit increased to $0.7 million, compared with $0.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, primarily due to the decreased cost of fulfillment services, which the company has been transitioning from outside vendors to in-house execution.

Total operating expenses decreased by approximately 38% to $0.7 million, compared with $1.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The decrease in operating expenses was due to a 37% decline in general and administrative expenses, primarily as a result of decreases in compensation costs, professional fees, depreciation and amortization, and other expenses, and a 91% decline in sales and marketing expenses, primarily due to reduced spending for marketing materials, as new sales activities remained on hold in accordance with the company's strategic transition to suspend new product sales beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

Net loss was $0.3 million, or $0.12 per share based on 2.4 million weighted average shares outstanding, compared with a net loss of $1.1 million, or $1.68 per share based on 0.7 million weighted average shares outstanding, in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. Net loss for the 2012 period included a $150,000 expense related to the tentative settlement of a class action proceeding, recorded in other income (expense).

As of June 30, 2012, the company had $1.7 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Additional information on LiveDeal's third quarter fiscal 2012 results can be viewed on the company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed August 14, 2012 by visiting the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov.

Best Internet Marketing Training Program Announced at BringitOnMarketing.com

Sacramento, California (PRWEB) August 21, 2012

Best Internet marketing training program that has been located and researched by the experts at BringitonMarketing.com has now been announced. This program is designed to provide a legitimate work at home opportunity to anyone that wants to stop working for an employer and work online. No specific job requirements were found to be required for this new training program. The program creators require only access to a computer and an Internet connection. Further information about this best Internet marketing training opportunity can be obtained by visiting the BringitonMarketing.com website.

Internet jobs are now providing a way that average people can work from home instead of for an employer. The increase in broadband Internet connections across the U.S. is making it much easier for the average person to connect to the Internet at home or in a public place. This ease of connection has helped produce a surge in the amount of legitimate employment opportunities that are available working at home online.

We find, review and publish information about legitimate work at home job opportunities and training programs, a representative of BringitonMarketing.com said. The days of working for a boss or temporary employer could be coming to an end for people that discover the right opportunity to earn money online, the representative added.

According to several published news reports, there were more entrepreneurs and Internet start-up companies launched in 2010 and 2011 than any other time in recent history. Part of this growth can be attributed to the rise in technological devices that make it simpler to connect with a global audience. Another portion of the increase in entrepreneurs and Internet start-ups has to do with the staggering economy. High unemployment numbers are reported every month in many U.S. states causing some people to give up searching for work or find an alternative opportunity to earn a sustainable salary.

Internet marketing and subsequent training programs are one popular route that interested workers can pursue. Some of the largest companies in the world have now opened up affiliate programs that help payout a commission to marketers that help promote products and service on the Internet. Some professionals that work in Internet marketing also pursue website user traffic generation jobs that are useful ways to bring business into an existing company website. A person that knows more than one area of Internet marketing could be awarded a higher salary.

The new Internet marketing training program that is announced on the BringitonMarketing.com website is available to a person interested in starting a business or working for an established company. Further details about the training and how to sign up for it can be found by visiting this link at the BringitonMarketing.com website.

Think Big Online Releases New Internet Marketing Consultant Services

(PRWEB) August 17, 2012

Think Big Online has just released a brand new Internet Marketing Consultant Service aimed at helping business owners set up and maintain an integrated marketing strategy.

In the last few years that Samuel Junghenn owner of Think Big Online has been working with businesses hes found the number one problem, which they encounter is how to integrate offline and online marketing campaigns. Further to that they also have issues with how to integrate all the online marketing channels as well.

For a business to truly succeed online there needs to be an integrated marketing strategy that combines online and offline marketing efforts. This way the business owner isnt trying to run two separate marketing strategies, which are not complimenting each other.

In my experience with businesses over the last few years the most successful strategies are where the online and offline strategies integrate and promote each other. Its also important for a business to have continuity of brand experience, so both the online and offline customer expect and experience the same thing. Says Samuel Junghenn owner of Think Big Online.

As part of the launch of the new Internet Marketing Consultant Service Think Big Online is offering for a limited time free Internet marketing strategy reviews. Business owners who would like their current strategy reviewed, or a new strategy developed can talk directly with trained and experienced Internet Marketing Consultants.

The reviews are free and will give business owners actionable advice to implement into their business. To register for a free Internet marketing strategy review visit: http://www.ThinkBigOnline.com/internet-marketing-consultant/

Glenview Trader leaves Merc and starts internet marketing company

Several years ago Glenview entrepreneur Bob Hunt left his job as a trader at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and decided to put his Internet marketing talents to good use by launching his own company aimed at helping local businesses optimize their online presence.

Deviating from the traditional 9-5 corporate career, the 34-year-old Hunt now works as his own boss operating The B24 Group, a start-up Internet marketing company that offers a variety of online marketing services to businesses in the North Shore area and beyond.

Two years since starting his company, Hunt has so far proven himself as a successful business owner, adding more than 25 clients and four employees to what started as a one-man endeavor in 2010.

Working around-the-clock from anywhere with an Internet connection, Hunt is focused on helping local businesses grow by widening their customer bases and increasing sales through a variety of tools including automated lead capture and follow-up systems, Google Places optimization, specialized YouTube videos, and text message marketing.

Hunts list of Internet marketing services has expanded during the two years since he started The B24 Group, but the initial idea for the company started with his objective to help businesses increase their search engine optimization, or achieve better rankings on Google search results pages.

Hunt, a Glenview native and graduate of Loyola Academy in Wilmette, first got his feet wet in Internet marketing after he left his job as a trader in 2004 and started following his interests in marketing and web site creation.

Fully confident that the last place he wanted to be was in an office working for someone else, Hunt began deeper exploration of his personal interests and talents by writing e-books on topics like dating, silver and gold investing, and a variety of health topics including pet health.

Needing an effective way to get readers to find his e-books online, he taught himself the best ways to use SEO to get his sites ranked higher on Google search results pages.
