Daily deal sites, by and large, seem like they're here to stay, much to Rocky Agrawal's chagrin, surely. Whether or not you agree with Rocky's flurry of posts last month about Groupon and its claque of clones, the daily deals model is not perfect, and it's certainly a worthy endeavor to make sure that small businesses and merchants are not coerced into structuring one-sided relationships with daily deals sites. Justin Cener, the Founder and CEO of Crowd Seats, agrees that the daily deal model is not ideal for every industry and merchants shouldn't force the model just because daily deals are all the rage these days. That being said, Cener thinks he's found a niche that is suited well to the daily deal and group buying model: Sports tickets.
