I was thinking about posting an add on Groupon but wanted to hear everyones opinion on it first
dont
Why do you say not to?
Ya don’t you get payed nothing for it you will not get any repeat customers because there only looking for deals.
Also they like to make it so you are not spacfic in your deal so people will get upset with you.
Against my knowing it was a no good deal? Yes I’m ashamed to say I did. I cancelled two days into it. I have never met a more rude, bossy and frankly heartless bunch of people that called me on my phone in my life.
It was horrible.
Go with your gut. It’s right.
There are only a handful of guys that have made out on it, but those guys are kinda outta my league when it comes to the brains part. Don’t know you or anything, all I’m saying is it takes a rare sort of person to make out on this with profit and NOT a huge burden.
Don’t let them fool you.
They are trained to do just that…
One poor guy in my area did one and just got raped by groupon with the deal. He had like 200 buy in’s and like I said about the people who call?
Man, he was getting horrible reviews online for being late, for not giving free stuff etc…so much so that even I responded and gave the guy 5 stars cuz thats messed up what these people were saying.
short end…I recommend that you don’t do it.
Wow 200 buy ins ? That’s crazy , I’ve seen some guys do 30 windows for $130 , then groupon keeps half . So $65 dollars for 6-7 hours of work , no way
Avoid it like the plague. Like Thor said, you get the cheapest people around.
I do enjoy Groupon for myself though. A few dinners here and there, a bed and breakfast once.
Like everyone else says, stay away. I have seen a couple guys almost lose a profitable business by signing up with these guys. All work, no profit, no repeat business.
Thanks a lot everyone I think I will stay away from Groupon.
