Funky Group launches broadcast comms channel
Online hair and beauty retailer The Funky Group is implementing a web-based broadcast communication system from elertz so customers can receive instant alerts when new products become available.
Registered users will receive an alert within 30 seconds of the information they are interested in becoming available on the website.
These alerts can be general, such as a notification that a new magazine is available on the website, or very specific using customer-defined parameters, such as sporting events on Sundays, or theatre tickets at a specified venue.
Once an event matching the prescribed criteria is posted on the website the user will be notified through their browser window.
