Bizspeaking.com Upgrades and Twin Pitch

I just pushed a major upgrade to the Bizspeaking.com website. The updates include a mobile friendly adaptive interface (using the Foundation framework) and new social features such as the like button. When you "like" a deal, the deal appears on your profile page, and your avatar appears on the deal. Another important feature is that apart from "bought" and "sold" actions, now we also support "WTS" (Want To Sell) and "WTB" (Want To Buy) deals. I'm sure sellers will love those. Also, it's now possible to filter deals based on "availability", i.e., some trades are one-off deals, such as most of the items on sale by individuals on Craigslist; while others, such as those on Groupon, are available if you follow the deal quick enough. The availability of a deal is originally set by its poster, but other users can also "vote" to object.

So much for the features. As for marketing, I prepared two pitches, which one do you like? --

* Bizspeaking.com is a social network for buyers. Get connected with other buyers around the world, instantly discover and share great deals anywhere, anytime.

or how about --

* Peek on what your neighbour has bought at Bizspeaking.com! Or just bought another Hermes Birkin Bag? Show off at Bizspeaking.com! Bizspeaking.com welcomes everyone, even douchebags. For the rest of us, be amazed at how many people got their stuff paying 50% less than their advertised price, and become one of them.
