Patent

CA 2674718

Amongst the many interactions people have are those which are unplanned such as door-to-door salespersons, charity canvassers, etc. In such situations the individual receiving the unplanned visit is disadvantaged in gaining information to make an informed decision in respect of the services offered to them. According to the invention a social networking application exploiting ad-hoc communications establishes a request for a visit with an individual allowing them to accept / decline as well as opportunity through the social networking application to retrieve information regarding the standing of the business, the individual, products as well as customer feedback. This additional information forming part of their decision making process. Businesses not part of the social networking application therefore derive reduced success in cold calling. Alternative embodiments allow for improved efficiencies in delivery / collection as well as pull based "wish" requesting from the individual rather than push advertising.
