Yes it’s true…. More than one and a half years back I was contacted by Groupon CEO Andrew Mason. Groupon is a company that is now reported to be growing faster than Facebook! You see, Groupon had just started in the city of Chicago and was achieving success. I had written and inquired about the possibility of beginning Groupon in the town of Denver, company. The idea charmed me and I could see the chances.

Groupon, as I have said was experiencing success and was exploring how they could roll out on a national scale. This was the reason for the call and informal interview. I never heard back from Groupon after that. I can only guess that they decided to hire and operate fully from their offices in Chicago instead of working with people throughout the U.S.

Generally, Groupon Reviews have been extraordinarily positive. I have researched one or two Groupon review sites and have found minimal negative experiences. In the two years of operating and expansion they have caught the attention of the media. Just latterly Mason turned down a three billion dollar offer from Google.

As of the date of this writing it is announced that Groupon has roughly 40,000,000 subscribers and continues to grow. Other firms have followed the successful model that Groupon started and have also experienced success. It appears that buyers everywhere love the savings and advantages that they offer.

Lately a new and augmented version has come on the scene. The name of the company is “The Consumer Advantage,” started by entrepreneur John Milanoski. What makes them unique is that they have chosen to go past the one time referral of $10 that Groupon gives. They are instead following an affiliate model where every free customer can be paid five percent from the purchases of private referrals they introduce the program to. It does not stop there ; customers receive additional commission payouts from the referrals that come from their buddies too. This continues to take place down five generations of referrals.

This will add up to significant revenue for the average person who simply tells three friends and each of these chums refer three and so on and so forth.Imagine earning five percent from the purchases of thousands of people. Can it occur? Groupon started with four hundred subscribers and quickly grew to millions with no serious incentive.

Although Groupon Reviews have been positive I believe the following differences offered by The Consumer Advantage give it an A+ rating.

Here are the reasons

1. Thanks to the commissions being paid out to customers they’re that much more inspired to support and respond to local companies that are promoting through The Consumer Advantage.

2. Businesses can now monetize their buyer base by referring them to subscribe to The Consumer Advantage. The potential response of their customers and their referrals to specials from other local firms adds further money. Think about it, Joe’s Sandwich Shop has referred 1,000 buyers to The Consumer Advantage. Each of them have referred others and these additional folk have continued to refer hundreds more. These folk will be replying to a 50% off at Sally’s Flower shop. Joe’s Sandwich shop continues to benefit from these purchases, even if they happen to be in another city or state.

3. Non-profits, clubs and organizations can take part too. This implies candy bar sales are gone for good. Simply subscribe the components for free and give them some encouragement to share it with their pals and family. The organization can make thousands of bucks a month from several generations of referrals simply taking advantage of seriously discounted offers from area merchants.

Groupon reviews Vs The Consumer Advantage

Although Groupon has a established history, TCA offers many advantages. The most important difference of Consumer Advantage is of course the ability to earn by referring other members who want to save 50% or even more from area businesses.
