Hello ProductHunt! Creator here. My friends & I love Pokemon Go & wanted to figure out a way to reward players & local businesses for taking a friendly stance toward Pokemon players. Thanks for upvoting! I'm off to catch some more Eevees (working on that last Eeveelution, Jolteon!)
Stephanie Luff
@futhey Love this idea so much! Hopefully St. Louis companies will be smart and use it ;)

@stephaniealuff Thanks for the kind words! Hopefully St. Louis area businesses find this helpful!

“Partnering” with 7 Eleven to add thousands of locations. All of US & Canada should be covered. Free Small Slurpie's for everyone!
Tyler Hayes
@futhey but that "partnership" is only good for 7/11 Day (today), right? ;)
James Futhey
Maker
@thetylerhayes Yes. Hopefully this just accelerates adoption and makes the experience better for new users today.
Braden Hamm
Great way to troll a friend's house.
Ezequiel Apesteguia
Hi James. I'm a journalist from Argentina. We are making an article about Lure Squad. Can you give me an email to contact you directly?

@eapesteguia I got your message earlier, just very overwhelmed at the moment. I promise a reply by end of day. Thanks for reaching out!
Abe Storey
@futhey This is awesome! I may have a large chain interested in working with you. Could you please shoot me an email: hello(at)abestorey.com
Varadh Jain
@abe_storey @futhey Hook it up! :)
Kevin Siskar
Wow! This is hustle and timing right here. @James Futhey, how will you activate the lures at these locations if your not there in person?
James Futhey
Maker
@thesiskar Thanks for the kind words! You will need to visit the business in person, for sure, to claim the reward and deploy the lure.

a 7 Eleven in our area is participating 🆒 https://twitter.com/ssieg/status...

@ssieg It's free Slushie day at 7/11 (check today's date) - the creator just added all 7/11 locations to the site to pad out the map.

@iota @ssieg Yes, shamelessly working to make the experience better for 1st time users today. I felt really crummy getting messages from my first couple users like “Opened the app. Not a single marker”. I got incredibly lucky that 7-Eleven was already giving away slushies :D Otherwise, this would be a bust!
Ahmed Al-Baz
Amazing. So basically its KIIP for pokemon go right?
James Futhey
Maker
@ahmed_bazz Yes! <3 KIIP, and it's an awesome company.

I'll put out the word in the Minneapolis/Twin Cities market. Have some friends that do marketing for local tap rooms. Could be a fun addition to the beer.

@dalebthinking Let me know how it turns out! Would love to share your story!
Dale Brose
@futhey OK, I'll keep you posted. I may even float this by the Chamber for its members.
Dale Brose
@futhey Hey James. I'm planning on giving a short lunch presentation to one of the Minneapolis area Chambers next week. Guess the word got out to the Minneapolis Star Tribune based on the call I just got. I'll give you guys a mention if they call asking for more info.
