Chicago, Illinois (PRWEB) May 19, 2014 -- Looken is an online deal engine. The restaurant owner controls what deals are offered, connecting consumers with deals happening now. Looken.com offers restaurant owners an option to try the service before buying it. When the restaurant owner sees an increase in customer count, revenue and repeat customers, there is an option to subscribe to the premium service. The plans have a number of offers up to 75 per month, not included in the basic version.

We saw a demand for restaurants being able to control not only the volume of customers through the door, but traffic during their slow times. It's economically beneficial to both the merchant and the customer.

This new venture was created due to the demand of easily accessible real-time and relevant savings. Looken users become "spontaneous consumers." The Looken application can be easily opened on a desktop or mobile device. Deals happening now can be found in a moments notice. Their technology will create a social – cultural movement and create a trend called "spontaneous consumption." Purchasing consumer goods spontaneously leads to larger orders. Now, those who like to buy on a whim have the power to be in the know, and get great deals as soon as they occur. Gone are the days when the consumer has to wait for coupons in the mail. Restaurant owners can entice customers to make a purchase during their slowest time - by posting a Looken deal.

They know what makes people spontaneously want to drop by the restaurant to satisfy their need for food and drinks. It seems the main ingredient in Looken's secret sauce is getting the attention of impulsive shoppers. Restaurant owners can direct attention towards food and drinks. It gives the restaurant staff a chance to up-sell impulsive buyers. The Looken application will get customers in the door by allowing restaurant staff to up-sell appetizers, drinks and desserts. To kick off their official launch, they are scheduled to attend the National Restaurant Association trade show. CEO, Bill King, and other executive members will be in attendance to exhibit Looken to trade show attendees.

"We are excited to present our product at the National Restaurant Association trade show. As the Looken solution will allow bars and restaurants across the country to increase their traffic when they need it most. They can send real-time and instant offers to nearby consumers. We saw a demand for restaurants being able to control not only the volume of customers through the door, but traffic during their slow times. It's economically beneficial to both the merchant and the customer." - According to Bill King, Chief Executive Officer of Looken.com

Looken is the future of social deal engines; it is a real- time tool. It allows the merchant to control when they want business in the door and allows them to focus on what is important to them. Customers do not necessarily have to purchase vouchers; instead they only click on a deal happening now. They can redeem the code at the point of purchase. It's real-time, and they don't necessarily have to pre-plan, which is why impulse comes into play when using the Looken application.

Restaurant owners can control their deals while posting to Looken. While they might offer suggestions, Looken will not restrict the deals the user offers. The user is in control of their offers. It's all - on demand.

Restaurant owners will find this application is exactly what they need to drive customers to their business and save money while doing it. In addition, it is very easy and convenient to use. If the customer wants Sushi and a hand crafted cocktail they can find it on Looken. The Geo-locator will determine the nearest Sushi restaurant. The application will provide a list of restaurants with user reviews for Sushi and specialty cocktails. Once the user selects the restaurant they will receive a code to redeem at the restaurant.

With all that we know about some of the most advertised social deal engines, we believe Looken will be a major player in the online social shopping industry. We look forward to the new future of "spontaneous shopping."
