Is Slevomat.cz an effective marketing instrument?
Slavík, Lukáš ; Hronza, Martin (advisor) ; Čermáková, Klára (referee)
Some firms, specifically 19,42 %, are reaching a loss after the promotion on the group buying site Slevomat.cz. A possible explanation is unsuitability of Slevomat.cz as a marketing instrument for all types of traders. A crucial factor for business profit is, in many cases, another purchase made by customers for the undiscounted price. The results suggest that on the return of customers to another purchase have a positive effect size of the company, offered type of goods/services, employee satisfaction and the number of newly acquired customers through promotion. An important determinant of customers return has proven to be the profit made by cooperation with Slevomat.cz and the relative discount rate. Contrary the number of sold vouchers has no impact on return of customers. Thus for the advertising company is helpful to set the optimal combination of discount rate and the maximum number of offered coupons.

This thesis examines the effect of various factors on the sale of vouchers of group buying deals. The data for the analysis were collected from the website Slevomat for four weeks. The observation was performed daily at 8 a.m., 4 p.m., 12 a.m. Based on the existing literature and theoretical considerations, six hypotheses were formulated, three of which turned out to be consistent with the data. It was confirmed, that the decrease in time remaining till the end of the offer induces bigger amount of vouchers sold per time period. Positive reviews and the fact that the offer is displayed on the main page of Slevomat also positively influence the number of sold vouchers. The influence of the amount of earlier sold vouchers on the present purchases ("bandwagon effect") and of the size of the relative or absolute discount was not found. The "Monday effect", according to which sales should be lower at the beginning of the week, was also disproved.
