”Groupon … still exists?”

Two successful brand test campaigns made it clear: It was time for a full top-to-bottom rebrand.

The world was opening up post-lockdown with people hungry for experiences, but Groupon’s brand had stagnated.

Key takeaways following the success of Yep, There’s a Groupon for That and So #@$%ing Ready.

  1. Outdated visual identity
  2. Brand had lost its signature quirkiness
  3. Seen as discount provider rather than experience discovery platform
  4. Negative perception from years of unfocused, spray-and-pray email marketing
