Abstract
A method for forming and disbanding dynamic temporary groups includes receiving a plurality of contacts at the facility, wherein each contact is associated with a respective user and a respective set of attributes; identifying a first subset of contacts which share a first common attribute; and dynamically forming a temporary group of contacts by determining a second common attribute shared by a second subset of the contacts, wherein the second subset of contacts is a smaller subset of the first subset of contacts. The method also includes identifying a related goods or service, based on the second common attribute, and presenting an offer for the related goods or services to the second subset of contacts and not to member contacts of the first subset that are not member contacts of the second subset of contacts.
