  • Hello. I’m Joanne, and I work for Groupon Malaysia.

    posted January 27, 2011 10:33 pm

    Couple of years ago I blogged about my amazing journey with Youth Asia; how it’s been like since Day 1, and moving into the Youth Engagement Summit 2009 era. I wrote, too, about the legendary YOUTH’10 which brought 88,366 people under one roof – a mega event we organized, which eventually proceeded to win the Best Promotional Activity of the Year at the Malaysia PR Awards 2010. Truly, a humbling experience like no other.

    When the Youth Festival chapter closed (at least for me), I moved on to another new venture. After 1.5 months of hardcore coding, preparation, experimenting with stuff… we launched GroupsMore – Youth Asia’s group buying platform. In just 4 months+, we grew from zero to 50,000 members.  The adrenaline rush seeing the numbers hike on a daily basis is incomparable to no other.

    Yesterday, the GroupsMore journey took on a sudden change. Groupon Inc, the much coveted fastest growing company in the world… announced its entrance into the Malaysian market via the acquisition of GroupsMore. We were barely even 5 months old.

    This would mean many things, and one amongst those would be this: we are now part of the amazing Groupon family.

    I will be heading to Chicago, Illinois on 12th Feb 2011 for a one week learning session at the Groupon Inc headquarters.

    When my gut feeling told me 2011 is going to be bursting at the seams with excitement, it told no lies.

    Here’s to more little adventures amidst mega achievements for the months to come. :)

      This domain appears to recieve a large ammount of visitors. How do you promote it? It offers a nice unique twist on things. I guess having something authentic or substantial to give info on is the most important factor.
