Business Overview
Community coupon books are hot, and startinga business that designs and produces coupon books is a sensational newbusiness endeavor to set in motion. The concept is verystraightforward. Simply secure 50 to 100 businesses throughout thecommunity that would like to be featured in the coupon book free ofcharge.
Of course, the catch is they must be prepared to provideconsumers with a discount on their products or service, either in theform of a percentage or fixed discount on a particular product orservice. Revenues for the business are gained by selling the couponbooks to consumers within the community, and the larger the advertisedsavings the better. Suppose the discounts offered in the coupon bookadd up to a total of $5,000. You would want to advertise that fact bypromoting a coupon book that costs $10, but will save the purchaser$5,000 on products and services they purchase on a regular basis withintheir own community.
