The web is abuzz with the ludicrousness of yet ANOTHER IPO. This time around it’s the group buying powerhouse Groupon. With their billion dollar valuation and winning (and often copied to infinity) strategy they want even more money in public stocks. Here at Social Smocial, we think the best thing for Groupon to do, to get the most out of IPO-ification, would be to sell their own shares as a Groupon Deal.
Some say, they will fail in their IPO, but we say: We want another deal! It’d be the best for both. Win-win. Also, what’s up with 2011? The year of the IPO? We think so. It’d be a matter of time before 3 month old startups IPO-ify their own chance at a quick buck. Will Social Smocial IPO? If we do, it’ll be a 75%-off deal on Groupon in the near future.
