The New Orleans CVB is excited to announce the launch of a revolutionary new mobile marketing product in conjunction with Miles | Weaver (our publishing partners) and the MeNetwork. This simple—yet powerful—mobile platform allows visitors, meeting attendees and locals to grab great deals city-wide just by sending a simple text message. Best of all, it's an ON-DEMAND service, meaning deals are only delivered when the visitor or delegate requests them, and it's entirely FREE to the end-user*.

There's no opting-in and no spam for the mobile phone owner, which makes it very visitor-friendly and ensures the offers are delivered when they are most timely and relevant. CVB members create their own deals via a very easy-to-use web tool and can edit them 24/7. Any kind of offer can be created, including deals on food, tours, happy hour, attractions, and shopping. Visitors can search city-wide or narrow it down to a specific neighborhood for more targeted results.

But don't just take our word for it: give it a try right now! Text NOLA DEALS to 63638. Know exactly what you want? Text NOLA plus any keyword (like OYSTERS, HAPPY HOUR, or TOURS) to 63638; the offers come to your phone in a matter of seconds. It really is that easy!

Me Network App allows attendees to search locations and take advantage of deals and discounts offered by our members. The app is GPS-enabled, free and is not only limited to New Orleans, so they can be reused when visiting other cities. Here is a link: http://itunes.com/apps/MeNetwork.
