“Santa Monica is an area rich with first-class merchants,” said Groupon founder Andrew Mason. “Groupon is excited to partner with The Santa Monica Chamber of Commerce and Buy Local Santa Monica to feature classic favorites and hidden gems representing the best in the city.” Santa Monica Chamber president Laurel Rosen commented, “As President of the Chamber and a committee member of the Buy Local city program, I live the mission of patronizing local businesses. We are very excited to partner with Groupon to showcase the exceptional products and services our businesses of Santa Monica have to offer.”
Using the principles of collective buying, Groupon negotiates unprecedented deals with top businesses. Groupon subscribers receive free daily emails alerting them to the deal. These deals are only activated if a minimum number of people agree to buy, encouraging subscribers to share the promotion with family and friends via social media tools such as Facebook and Twitter. By guaranteeing a large number of new customers, Groupon creates a win-win for local merchants. So far, this innovative approach to e-commerce has generated thousands in revenue for Los Angeles businesses while saving money for nearly 200,000 local subscribers.
