The free Eagle Ford Mobile Network App is the first mobile smartphone app dedicated exclusively to meeting the ever-changing needs of Eagle Ford Shale operators, workers, and associated businesses.

This first-of-its-kind mobile platform empowers users to access a wealth of information from the palms of their hands to help them get the job done and run their businesses more efficiently…faster and easier. Businesses of any kind will, for the first time, have a truly mobile platform dedicated to the Eagle Ford Shale to accelerate visibility and increase the reach of their products/services to individuals and businesses that are otherwise difficult to reach.

Founder and CEO, Marco Flores, stated that his vision for the app arose from operational challenges experienced by him and his father while trying to run their small business in the area. Weak and inefficient access to relevant information and communication issues cost the business in lost productivity and delays. Flores explained, “I became frustrated because there were certain types of information we needed to access, that the workers needed access to, that companies we did business with needed access to…and it would take up several days just trying to track down the information that was needed to make a decision. So I started making a list of the things that I learned would be helpful to the people who work in this industry, and specifically in this area—and that became the blueprint for the app.”

Features include: location-based smart directories; job listings; equipment sales; CDL monitoring access; small business support; industry news; and social media communications. The smart directories utilize the GPS ability of the smartphones and display business listings—oil field service providers, food catering, lodging, leisure, small business help, and safety organizations—based on which ones are closest to the user. Employers and drivers can monitor their CDL status and violations from anywhere phones go.

Companies can establish and amplify their mobile presences by utilizing the Eagle Ford’s first truly mobile marketing/customer engagement platform. And it’s designed to reach everyone who works in the Eagle Ford Shale. “Nothing like this has ever been available to the people who work so hard to make this community what it is. It’s going to totally disrupt the traditional ways people have historically accessed some of the basic information they need out in the field…in a good way. It’s going to save businesses invaluable time and money,” said Flores.

The Eagle Ford Mobile Network App was specifically designed for users who rely on their mobile devices on a daily basis and who need immediate access to the information that matters to them. Now there’s a better and more efficient solution for anyone who works or does business in and around the South Texas energy industry.
