57% of small-business owners say their main problem isn't margins, inflation, or supply chains. It's reaching customers. That's from the latest U.S. Chamber Small Business Outlook. Pair it with new BofA Institute data showing restaurant spend now outpacing groceries, and the picture sharpens: consumers are still spending, they're just spending differently, and on experiences. Local owners can feel the shift but can't always get in front of it. This is the gap Groupon was built for. A salon owner in Chicago, a taqueria in Austin, a yoga studio in Brooklyn: they don't need another ad platform, they need real people walking through the door this week. That's the job. The acquisition problem isn't going away. The businesses that solve it will be the ones that show up where value-seeking customers are already looking. #TeamGroupon #SmallBusiness #LocalBusiness
