With the site\u2019s recently refreshed functionality, Guzzle will undoubtedly remain the leader in its field.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>The enhanced <a href=\"http:\/\/www.guzzle.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.guzzle.co.za<\/a> provides a cleaner, more user-friendly layout, as well as offers advertising clients further opportunities to reach and engage with Guzzle users, ultimately getting more eyeballs on their specials and driving further referral traffic to a brands website.<\/p>\n<p>Guzzle\u2019s General Manager, Muntasir Bester adds: \u201cGuzzle was first to market, and we\u2019ve always been ahead of our competitors by building a solid platform for retailers to conveniently extend the reach of their leaflets. Our new fresh look includes a number of updated features and paves the way for future plans.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>In addition to the new ad units and slicker user experience, Guzzle users can now set alerts for when their preferred retailers\u2019 catalogues go live, or when catalogues that contain products that they\u2019re interested in become available. By deep-linking client catalogues into Guzzle\u2019s ecommerce site, the site helps drive consumers straight to \u201cBuy Now\u201d pages.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGuzzle has more exciting developments lined up, for example a dedicated B2B app that will be launching soon,\u201d says du Plessis. \u201cThis will provide SMEs with the opportunity to create and publish high quality catalogues on Guzzle. We look forward to the next phase of our partnership with this platform.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>SPARK Media DNA<br \/>\nEstablished in 2015, SPARK Media, a division of CTP Ltd, are experts in retail and location-based marketing solutions.
