System and method for increasing demand for perishable goods at a point-of-sale location utilizing location-based communication

This invention describes a system that helps businesses, like restaurants, sell perishable items before they go to waste. It continuously tracks how much is being sold and produced, and based on this, figures out if they need more customers to avoid spoilage. If more demand is needed, the system calculates a specific geographic area around the business and sends messages to potential customers within that area, encouraging them to buy.

Why it matters: Filed before ubiquitous smartphone adoption and precise, real-time location-based targeting became commonplace. Today's advanced cloud analytics and hyper-local messaging platforms make the system's core functions significantly more practical and efficient to implement.
