If you don't mind me asking, who do you work for and what makes the deal site sustainable for local businesses?

Sustainable means it doesn't hinder the business like a 50% off coupon and a 25% split on the revenue thereafter.

Most local businesses cant afford that and realize it too late.

The company I work for is thegolocalcard.com (won't plug it again on Hacker News...I promise).

How funny! I love golocal in Austin! You guys rock, really great company and concept. I like to use mine at Quacks.

Haha! Money! I am developing an iPhone app for them and helping start GoLocal in Boston :).

The GoLocal Austin people are awesome and a half :)
