! Do you control the pricing of the deal?
! Does the deal provider take all of your
profits to run the deal?
! For example, are you asked to give up
30%, 40%, 50% of what you collect on
each deal?
! If you offer $40 of food for $20, and
the deal company takes $10 per deal,
are you now losing money on each
deal sold?

Don’t assume you
have to offer a steep
discount.
Don’t assume getting
someone through the
door once is enough.
Don’t use deals as a
way just to sell
unwanted inventory.
Don’t forget to
redeem the
coupons!
Don’t forget to say
“Thank you!”
