Hearsay With Cathy Lewis

Deal-of-the-day websites are changing the American shopping landscape. Groupon and Living Social are just two examples of these groundbreaking "social commerce" trends. Today on HearSay, we'll tell you how these promotions work, and the effect on businesses in Hampton Roads. Retail Alliance president and CEO Susan Milhoan joins us in studio with insight on how local businesses are embracing the deal-of-the-day concept. We'll also hear from one local business that's used a deal-of-the-day promotion to attract customers, and another locally-based social commerce business. We hope you'll join in the conversation as well.
