It begs the question, if it is such a good idea - why havent the ones who replied to this thread on the link provided above - done their own groupon deal? Cant they even see what is going on here?

It has been mentioned already about the wonders (not) of groupon (Simon was the most vocal, and I totally agree with him), that sooner or later CC's wouldnt be able to cope - and this is a prime example of that.

He's obviously a desperate chap under this pressure and needs bailing out.

Groupon = absolute craziness.

What people havent taken into consideration is the eventual decline in prices throughout the industry (because of these deals), forcing lower margins. But by the time this type of groupon thing comes to an end, there will be a view by people that this industry should always be 'cheap'. By then it will be too late.

Why oh why oh why...

Looks to me like letzclean is getting rideof the customers he can't  upsell to and keeping the ones he can. Sounds like a mugs game to me. Also, he doesn't mention how you are going to get paid. A real mugs game.  :'(

Good way of putting it ;)
Or another would be just sub contracting crap or sub contracting groupon work, just what is the world coming to.
Now what's that saying again......If it's too good to be true then

funny you forget that the regular posters aren't the only ones reading. wonder how many competition companies are here reading what companies are up to but not helping others out.
