Groupon Does it Right

Before getting started, I want to make it clear that I have no relationship to this site in any way. Stumbled upon it and have been a member for about four months. I must say, they got it right. There is no compensation in any way for this plug. When I see something done well, I like to give credit where credit is due.

A little about the Groupon site.

It provides one or two incredible offers each day. Not overdone. Just one email a day. Not only are the offers and coupons extremely valuable, the writing is edgy, fun and very creative. They have offers in most major DMAs, but not completely covering the entire country just yet. Definitely on the right track. Not sure how they accomplished it, but they have created a model that works. There are some copycat sites, but Groupon is by far superior.

The deals are incredible, and very diversified. Give it a shot, especially if you live in NYC. Won’t believe the deals you get!

Just my thought for the day. Trust me, it will save you some cash on some great things.

And, what happened to all my book recommendations?

  2. You are so right. And that was my point, they have done something right. Don't really know the history of the company, didn't do my research there, just wrote about it because as a consumer, it is so excellent.
