Fomo

Find specials on food, drinks and events near you with Fomo

A Quick Nibble About Us:

fomo was created out of a need that the Founders, Ryan Marx and Jacqueline du Plessis have, that many of South Africans struggle with, the need to see specials that are valid and not outdated, specials that are near your location and most of all not to overspend when we don’t have to right!

We created this app because we were sick of lying in bed on a Saturday or having a lazy Wednesday where we don’t want to cook dinner, asking the age old question: “Where should we go for dinner?!”

I’m sure as many of you know this causes major frustration because we don’t want to spend an arm and a leg to eat out, especially if we do it regularly.

Worst of all… going out to eat and you see afterwards that the place next door had a 2-for-1 special or cocktail happy hour, oh that really grinds my gears friends.

Well that’s why we came up with fomo, the app that tells you where to find the special you are looking for. Great for restaurants because they don’t have to spend thousands trying to get their specials seen on Facebook and hella great for consumers because we don’t have to rely on restaurant owners to use their Instagram marketing skills (no offense) for us to see their amazeballs specials. Win-Win for everyone!

For Businesses:

The power of the cellphone. Many business owners may still be in denial on how important it is to target customers using mobile marketing. When was the last time you left the house without your cellphone? Exactly! We rely on the access to instant supply of information. Want to know where a business is located, google it, want to know what the price of Avo’s are, we google it. Whatever the question is that we have we use the internet.

As mobile phones are getting smarter and easier to use, we are relying more on them and they are becoming more important in our everyday lives. Knowing this we created fomo as an app-based consumer marketing tool. This is the most cost-effective way to get your specials seen by customers as this tool is absolutely free to use. Restaurant owners create their own profile and create their own specials in less than 10 minutes. It really is that easy.
