GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Sept. 4 MI-MilitaryAvenue.com
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Sept. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- With the cost of everything from food to fuel rising across the country, most everyone is feeling a pinch and the military community is no exception. One company, MilitaryAvenue.com, is doing something about it.
Over the last two and a half years, http://www.MilitaryAvenue.com has built a network of over 3500 local military-friendly businesses who offer special rewards and discounts to the military community. In the past, these discounts or Military Rewards have been accessible directly from MilitaryAvenue.com's website. However, with the unveiling of the new MILITARY ALERTS program this month, military members and their families can now receive the best local discounts and rewards directly in their inboxes every month.
Signing up for the service is easy. Military community members can visit MilitaryAvenue.com and register on the right hand column. All that is needed to get started are an email address and the installation to that you want to receive "Alerts" for. From there, MilitaryAvenue collects all the Military Rewards at your chosen base and delivers them to your inbox each month. This gives participants a quick and easy way to find local discounts.
"I signed up for [MILITARY] ALERTS because it saves me time and money," says Kate, a military spouse from the Patrick AFB area, "I was surprised at how many discounts were available in my area."
The MILITARY ALERTS program accesses the largest database of local military discounts on the Internet. The program serves 240+ military installations and their surrounding areas. Any business can apply to list their Military Reward on MilitaryAvenue. To begin the application, visit MilitaryAvenue.com's List With Us page. All Military Rewards are reviewed for accuracy and quality before being placed on the site. Each month, MilitaryAvenue selects the best Military Reward of the month to recognize the most generous businesses. The program is designed to provide discounts on a local level, but national brands are encouraged to participate as well.
"This is really a win for both our military users and commerce. By showing support for the military community, businesses are perceived very positively, while the military community benefits tremendously from their generosity," comments Dan Kissinger CEO and founder of MilitaryAvenue.com, "We're just happy to play a small role in improving the lives of military members and their families."
