A social media website is gaining more & more popularity in the US. Groupon is a social website that shares with members a one “amazing” deal a day from a local store, restaurant or company. If enough people “buy” the deal it is activated and the entire group receives a coupon, or “Groupon,” that can redeemed for that deal. If not enough people sign up then the deal is cancelled and you pay nothing. site operates on the principal of “collective buying power.” Basically companies can offer great deals on the site when they are guaranteed it will only be valid if a certain number of people take advantage. The company decides that number, which they can of course peg to the point where the offer becomes profitable for them. Do you think such a website can work here in Qatar? If you are a business owner, would you use it to market your business in Qatar?
