Abstract: A distributed system that includes a merchant application, a buyer application and a seller or drummer application. The applications reside and run on personal computing devices and operate together to allow a merchant to create an offer, drummers to select, present and share the offer with buyers, and buyers to receive and save the offers in anticipation of a conversion. Upon a conversion, revenue derived from the transaction is provided to the merchant but, some of revenue is shared with one or more drummers involved in pushing the offer.

Abstract: A method and system are described for promoting sales offers through a dynamic, on-demand sales force. Merchants may generate and publish promotional offers (“deals”) that include commissions. A salesperson (“drummer”) may select a deal for promotion to potential buyers. A unique QR code associating the selected deal with the drummer is created. The QR code may be shared by the drummer with an interested buyer for the goods or services associated with the deal. To redeem the deal, the buyer presents the shared QR code to the merchant. The merchant, in turn, applies the deal terms to a purchase transaction and, based on the QR code, a commission is debited from a merchant account and credited to a drummer account. Certain embodiments leverage presentment triggers to alert the drummer to previously selected deals which may be relevant and timely for presentment to a buyer.

Abstract: A distributed system that includes a merchant application, a buyer application, a seller or drummer application and defines the compensation structure for each deal. The applications reside and run on personal computing devices and operate together to allow a merchant to create an offer, drummers to select, present and share the offer with buyers, and buyers to receive and save the offers in anticipation of a conversion. Upon a conversion, revenue derived from the transaction is provided to the merchant but, some of revenue is shared with one or more drummers involved in pushing the offer.

Abstract: A method and system are described for managing sales promotions and transaction settlements. An exemplary method comprises establishing a merchant account and establishing a drummer account, generating a promotional offer content (e.g., a “deal”) in association with the merchant account, associating one or more presentment triggers with the promotional offer content, and publishing the promotional offer content such that it is associated with the drummer account. The exemplary method further comprises receiving indication of a selection of the published promotional offer content, generating a unique ID that associates the selected promotional offer content with the drummer account, and transmitting the unique ID to the drummer device. The exemplary method further comprises recognizing activation a presentment trigger and sending an alert to a drummer device.
