I Love Groupon

Sean FenlonI never use coupons but I love Groupon.
And not just because they’re good for 1 acupuncture:
And not just because they’re a $1.35 billion dollar business:
Last month DST and Battery Ventures valued Groupon at $1.35 Billion. http://techcrunch.com/2010/04/18/its-official-groupon-announces-that-1-35-billion-valuation-round/
And not just because it is a business that was founded in 2008.
This reminds me of a question I asked on LinkedIn Answers back in 2008. I asked “Who Is Crushing It?”
There were no answers provided (understand given the timing – or perhaps the category of the question), but apparently the ANSWER was Groupon.
And not just because their founder is also a musician:
VentureBeat interviewed Groupon founder and CEO Andrew Mason – “.being in a band makes you learn how to disagree with people and hold onto a kind of uncompromising belief. You have to stick to doing what you believe is right.”
And not just because they send me discounts for my favorite local Baltimore businesses:
I have received discounts from Groupon via email to The Blue Hill Tavern, The Mt. Washington Tavern, and The Chesapeake Wine Company. All local and frequent businesses for me.
I love Groupon because they’re bringing email back in vogue.
Did I mention that I REALLY love email marketing. :-)
