AskMeNow and MoneyChannel Launch Mobile Finance Portal
AskMeNow (OTCBB: AKMN) and The Money Channel Inc. have announced the
launch of “MoneyChannel Mobile,â€Â
a financial information portal powered by AskMeNow. The fully-automated
mobile solution will give The Money Channel’s
vast national Radio and Television audience of financial industry
investors, consumers and insiders easy access to business, stock market
and economic news, stock quotes and up the minute corporate
announcements. Additionally, users have the ability to build their own
unique portfolio of stock quotes, which can be accessed anytime,
anywhere from mobile phones.
MoneyChannel Mobile, powered by AskMeNow, will be made available through
on-air and online promotion to The Money Channel’s
4.5 million daily radio show listeners and website visitors. The branded
financial information solution will also be offered to AskMeNow’s
existing mobile user base and through its network of carrier
distribution partners across the U. S. and Canada.
“Extending the Money Channel to the mobile
world is a natural fit for our Radio and TV programming on American
Scene Radio and ‘WallStreetCast’
and for our millions of listeners and viewers, and we expect this to be
widely used by our audience while on the go,â€Â
said The Money Channel’s Host and CEO Steve
Crowley.
AskMeNow CEO Darryl Cohen stated, “We are
very excited to launch our first new publishing partner solution through
the AskMeNow 3.0 portal. Stock quotes and financial news are a great fit
with our heavy user base of smartphone prosumers who are always looking
for relevant info from their phones.â€Â
The portal is free to use (standard carrier rates do apply) and revenues
will be generated through relevant targeted advertising placed on the
site. The version of the solution launching today will be based on a
mobile website, with future iterations planned to include SMS queries,
closing bell market messages, and customizable stock quote alerts
scheduled to update users on the companies they are watching closest.
MoneyChannel Mobile can be accessed on any mobile web enabled phone by
visiting http://money.askmenow.com
or by texting the keyword MONEY to the US short code 27563
(ASKME).
