Wonderful! The weekend is here again. Many of you will head to Swensen's to enjoy the Groupon deal of a 50% discount. We know many of you learnt of the super deal through our postings because your clicks on the Groupon adverts were high. [img]plugins/editors/jce/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-laughing.gif[/img] If you had secured the 50% vouchers, well done and enjoy Swensen's! We got some advert revenue from yr clicks....Thanks! [img]plugins/editors/jce/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-cool.gif[/img]
Let's look out for the next Big Deal from Groupon.
Swensen's was a top favourite, but so far nothing comes close.
The recent deals for spa, slimming, foot reflexology, French food, etc don't come close.
Groupon could target ....Sakae Sushi.....Sizzler ....Pizza Hut. Any more ideas for Groupon?
Groupon is about to launch its IPO in the US. One more time (after Artivision), we hear of an Internet-related business with good market potential --- and no earnings.
Groupon lost $102.7 million in the first quarter of this year on top of $389.6 million in losses last year. The company has accumulated a deficit of $522 million since its inception in 2008. That is despite generating gross revenues of $645 million in the first quarter and $713 million last year (much of which is passed on to merchants). "We cannot be certain that we will be able to attain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis," the company said in its filing.
