Description

{Method for Connecting Optimized Sellers or Brokers with a Buyer and Billing in Realtime through Interactive SMS}

The present invention relates to a method of connecting a buyer and a seller (or intermediary), and in particular, after extracting a plurality of sellers (or intermediaries) most suitable for the buyer's trading conditions, the seller in real time using a two-way text message of the wireless Internet. (Or the intermediary) to check the buyer's trading conditions and contact information after charging the information fee and to connect the buyer and the seller to induce a negotiation.

Various attempts have been made to connect buyers and sellers (or intermediaries) using wired and wireless Internet. Since the early days of the fixed-line Internet, e-commerce shopping malls have adopted a direct trading method between buyers and sellers, or have adopted an indirect trading method that rents sales space in the form of a SOHO mall or auction. However, the process of checking products, selecting products, and paying payments on the wired Internet has limits on the trust of sellers and products, and as a result, only delaminated products such as PCs, home appliances, books, and records are traded. have. That is, the existing methods such as shopping malls and auction sites have limitations in dealing with most products that need to negotiate optimal transaction conditions such as automobiles, real estate, legal services, financial services, and medical services.

As such, there are various information providing sites as a link point for products that need to be negotiated between the buyer and seller for the best deal, but the buyer has to spend time and money to find a suitable seller. The operator also relies on advertising revenue because it is difficult to generate profit by providing information itself.

As a result, trading of goods that must satisfy the optimal trading conditions, such as automobiles, real estate, legal affairs, taxation, finance, medical care, travel, and various living services, can only be made by inducing negotiations through the proper connection between buyers and sellers. Transaction wish information is a significant high value added information for a matching seller.

On the other hand, in the application of the present method, problems can be overcome by using an interactive SMS, callback URL, and callback number technology that extends a short message service (SMS), which is a real-time information exchange method using mobile communication. Let's do it.

The bi-directional text message specified in the SMS standard IS-637A enables real-time exchange of information between the sending and receiving parties, thereby maximizing the value of the transaction hope information by immediately delivering the buyer's information to the seller. In addition, it is also suitable to convey various information of buyers by overcoming the amount of delivery information, which is a limitation of one-way text message, through Callback URL.

In particular, since a mobile carrier billing system can be applied to a wireless URL accessed through a two-way text message, the information fee for the seller to obtain the buyer's transaction request information becomes possible.

The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to give buyers the opportunity to negotiate various terms of sale, and to obtain the real-time buyer information to the seller (or intermediary), so that the buyer and seller (or intermediary) can be effective. To connect and charge in real time using a two-way text message.

Buyer real-time connection and billing method for the optimal seller (or intermediary) using the two-way text message according to the present invention for solving the technical problem is (a) the buyer registers the transaction conditions and contact information through the wired and wireless Internet to the system Doing; (b) extracting a seller (or intermediary) that meets the buyer's desired trading conditions and selecting a plurality of optimal sellers (or intermediaries) therefrom; (c) calculating the information usage fee by reflecting the A Coefficient of Sales Value in the buyer's trading conditions; (d) sending a two-way text message containing basic information of a transaction desired to a plurality of selected optimal sellers (or intermediaries); (e) the seller (or intermediary) pays the calculated information fee in order to view the buyer's terms and conditions of contact and contact information: (f) the message received by the seller (or intermediary), i. Identifying the transaction terms and contact information: (g) a plurality of sellers (or intermediaries) in direct communication with the buyer to negotiate the terms of the transaction.

In addition, when (b) selecting a plurality of optimal sellers (or intermediaries), the degree of satisfaction of the conditions of the sellers (or intermediaries) is scored according to the buyer's trading conditions, and then used in the step (d) as a measure of SMS sending order and interval. It includes a method.

In addition, when calculating the information usage fee in step (c), the operating value coefficient of each product (A Coefficient) is considered in consideration of the operating expenses that the seller (or intermediary) normally spends to obtain the information, and the sales profit that may be generated through the information. of Sales Value).

In addition, the information storage process that allows the seller (or intermediary) in step (e) to view the information paid by the seller without additional payment of information through the wired Internet site, if he / she wants to reconfirm it separately from step (f). It is characterized by the inclusion.

In addition, in the step (g), the seller (or intermediary) talks directly with the buyer to negotiate the terms of the trade, by applying a callback number technology so that the seller (or intermediary) can easily call the buyer in real time. .

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is an overall configuration diagram illustrating a buyer connection and billing method for an optimal seller (or an intermediary) using a two-way text message according to the present invention. The buyer 10, the Internet site 20, the database 30, and the mobile The system 40, the seller mobile communication terminal 50, the mobile carrier information usage fee charging system 60, the seller 70 is composed of.

When there is a product that the buyer 10 wants to purchase, the buyer 10 accesses the wired / wireless internet site 20 that is pre-built for the present invention and inputs a transaction request condition and a telephone number to be contacted.

The internet site 20 transmits the inputted buyer information to the database 30 to extract all sellers (or intermediaries) that match the buyer information, and then select a plurality of optimal sellers (or intermediaries) among them.

At this time, the information fee of the buyer information is calculated by the information fee DB included in the database (30).

The database 30 transmits data regarding the buyer information, the selected optimal seller information, and the calculated information usage fee to the mobile system 40.

The mobile system 40 sends a two-way text message to the seller's mobile terminal 50 based on the data received from the database 30 and asks whether the buyer needs the information.

Seller 70 wants to see the buyer information is to press the callback URL connection button included in the received two-way text message, and the payment of the information fee calculated according to the guidance of the carrier information fee billing system 60, The carrier information usage fee charging system 60 confirms the payment fact to the mobile system 40.

The mobile system 40 transmits the purchaser information in the form of a wireless Internet page to the mobile communication terminal 50 of the seller whose information usage fee is completed.

After confirming the buyer information, the sellers 70 can call the buyer directly using the callback number and negotiate the terms of the deal.

On the other hand, the mobile system 40 checks the payment result from the mobile carrier information usage fee charging system 60 and stores the processing result in the database 30, and the database 30 sends the information payment fee to the seller 70 who has completed the payment. Only through the Internet site 20 will be able to reconfirm the buyer information at any time later.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a process in which an automobile buyer is connected to a seller as an embodiment of the present invention.

First, the automobile buyer enters the trading conditions and contact information into the Internet site 20 (S210). At this time, if the purchaser's contact information is registered in advance on the Internet site 20, a separate input process may not be performed.

Second, extracting the X car sellers satisfying the buyer transaction conditions of the total car sellers from the database 30, and selects the Y sellers with the highest degree of condition satisfaction as the optimal seller (S220). At the same time, the transaction request condition entered by the buyer is a step of calculating the information fee of P Won according to the information fee DB of the database 30 (S230). Information fee DB and the calculation process is as shown in FIG.

Third, a two-way text message is sent to Y optimal sellers through a mobile system 40 to a mobile phone or a PDA phone capable of mobile communication and wireless Internet (S240). At this time, the degree of satisfaction of the condition of the seller (or intermediary) selected according to the buyer's transaction request condition is scored and used as a measure of the order and interval of the two-way text message.

Fourth, the optimal seller Y who received the two-way text message determines whether the corresponding information is the sales information necessary for the user, and if necessary, presses the callback URL button or decides whether to terminate it if not necessary (S250). Here's an example of a two-way text message that you receive, where you can't identify who the buyer is, without displaying the exact name or contact phone number and at least enough to determine if the seller has the necessary sales information: Only information from is exposed.

E.g. [purchase buyer information]

Jongno-gu, Seoul / 3,000cc /

Jun 10 14: 30 / 01x-123-xxxx

Do you want to connect?

Fifth, the seller increases the callback button and connects to the information service billing system 60, which the mobile carrier acts, checks the billing guide, and then pays the information fee of P circle calculated in advance (S260).

Sixth, the seller has confirmed the payment is a step to confirm the buyer's trading conditions and contact information as a whole through their mobile communication terminal (50) (S270).

Seventh, the seller negotiates the transaction terms by calling the callback number directly to the buyer's contact phone number (S280). The above is the structure of this invention.

On the other hand, the buyer negotiated with the N sellers through the present invention can easily select a seller who can best satisfy his or her desired trade conditions (S290).

3 is a flowchart illustrating a process of calculating an information usage fee by reflecting an A Coefficient of Sales Value in a buyer transaction request condition.

First, the buyer enters the trading conditions and contact information on the Internet site 20 (S210).

Second, a step of extracting a keyword necessary to apply to the information fee DB of the database 30 of the transaction desired conditions entered by the buyer (S211).

Third, a step of searching for an information fee DB by keywords (S212).

Fourth, it is a step of extracting the operating value coefficient from the information fee DB searched by the keyword (S213). At this time, the operating value coefficient is calculated in proportion to the operating value and the transaction closing rate and stored in the information usage DB in advance. Operating value refers to the average profit earned by an operator when a deal is closed. The transaction closing rate refers to the probability that a single deal will be closed. The table configuration example of the information service DB is shown in Table 1 below. In Table 1, the keyword characteristics and the number of extracts may be variously designated according to the characteristics of the trading desire information.

Fifth, when the operating value coefficient is determined, the basic information fee is multiplied to calculate the information fee of the corresponding transaction demand condition (S230). As in the example of Table 1, if the operating value factor is 1.50 and the basic information service fee is 1,000 won, the information service fee of the relevant transaction request condition is 1,500 won.

According to the present invention, when a buyer enters a transaction request condition and contact information only once on an Internet site, a plurality of sellers (or intermediaries) most suitable for the condition receive a two-way text message of the wireless Internet and contact the buyer in real time to negotiate a transaction. It becomes possible. Therefore, the buyer can easily contact several sellers and proceed the transaction in an advantageous position.

In addition, since the buyer negotiates the deal directly with the seller, it is possible to overcome the limitation of the reliability of the seller, the product, and the online product payment in the existing e-commerce shopping mall. Therefore, it has the advantage of broadening the sales opportunities for sellers for various products.

In addition, by using a two-way text message to transfer information between the trader and the seller, it is easy to solve the billing of the information. While the existing Internet information providing sites were difficult to charge for providing information, according to the present invention, the charges for individual transaction information can be easily performed because the mobile communication company passes through the information fee charging system.

Lastly, through the present invention, the value of information is rationally evaluated for each individual transaction hope information, the information usage fee is calculated, and the information is paid to the seller who needs the most information. As a result, sellers can reduce existing operating costs by providing new sales windows and provide high-quality commerce services focused on buyers.
