TEMPE, AZ--(Marketwired - Mar 6, 2015) - American Green, Inc. (OTC PINK: ERBB) announced today that www.zazzznetwork.com has moved from "placeholder" to "live site" with the addition of the first locations to have the age-verifying ZaZZZ product fulfillment machines fully online. As the dispensaries complete the uploading of their product photos and get the machines loaded with products, the links will transition from static to interactive with additional information about each machine, including available products and usage data.
"Obviously the necessary step to receiving actual revenue from the machines is getting them operating legally, loaded, and data-linked. While several of the machines were initially online several weeks ago, we decided to integrate new data we learned from the previously active sites and wait to go live elsewhere until this week with the assurance that all the 'T's are crossed," says Carl Kaiser, VP of the Verified Vending division. "Working with the locations has given us a lot of insight to what is necessary to get online as well as inspire us to integrate several new ideas designed to improve user experience."
"As our ZaZZZ machine network expands to more locations, we plan to never stop incorporating new features and improvements. Catering to the early adopters, we left the product selection mostly to their discretion. As we progress, we'll eventually direct the product selection so ZaZZZ Machines arrive with the images loaded and the inventory available and accounted for. Thus, the sixteen square feet in some random corner of the seller's facility that currently is occupied by an unused chair and a poster on the wall instantly transforms into revenue-generating floor space for the business. Also, there is no longer a need for the products to interfere in any way with the dispensary's current inventory and POS system," Kaiser concludes.
"Combining the various technologies available and creating something new like ZaZZZ is extremely rewarding. It demands a level of creativity and engineering that is challenging and fun. We recently acquired zazzz.com and expect we'll begin the migration of zazzznetwork.com very soon. As we do, we'll bring the ability to see what's in the machine to the site and incorporate the ability to purchase and reserve a user's selected item(s.) As these initiatives become reality, we'll be working to combine the BlazeNowTM Android and Apple applications (www.blazenow.com) with the functionality on the website to create a full-service app. Who knows what else we'll learn along the way? One thing is for sure -- we are very fast learners. We have to be!" says VP of Software Integration, Kent Steiner.
