'Groupon Coupons: Smart Phones Offer Consumers And Businesses New Coupon Options'

Posted Aug 30, 2023

'VICTORIA -- Cutting coupons may be a thing of the past. Internet marketing companies such as Groupon Inc. now send discounts to your cell phone when you sign up for the service, and it\'s saving people a lot of money says company spokesperson Julie Mossler. \"In North America alone we\'ve saved consumers over 700 million dollars in just two years.\" The \"Groupon\" comes right to your phone, and can be purchased in advanced and used later when the consumer is ready. Launched in 2008 the company has grown quickly and with it\'s success, local businesses are jumping on board says Ramesh Espinoza of Puerto Vallarta Amigo\'s Mexican. \"Right now we are living in a time where news paper and radio are not enough. This is an amazing tool for small businesses that lets someone else do their marketing for them especially because it\'s going to be targeted to the market you want.\" Another big push behind the Groupon idea is to get folks out into their own town and exploring new flavors, sights and sounds. From sizzling spices on the grill to the dance floor, Taboo Dance and Fitness owner Danielle Murray says she\'s taken her business to new heights with the campaign. \"I hadn\'t heard of it at first so I did some research and they were fantastic, they gave me a lot of info and they\'ve got a pretty strong tract record everywhere they are so I decided to go with it and it was more successful than I expected. As Smart phones become more and more popular, online marketing will look to continue bringing consumers more choice, and local businesses more customers.'
