New product enables large national brands to build a robust local online presence

San Ramon, Calif. – September 13, 2012 – Reply!, Inc. today announced the launch of MerchantCircle Branded Profiles, a new product that enables large, national brands and organizations to build locally-targeted pages for their members on MerchantCircle.com, the nation’s largest online network of local business owners.
