SYRACUSE — The latest expansion by SweetJack, a daily deals website based in Atlanta, brought the service to 36 new cities across the country, including Syracuse.
The service (www.sweetjack.com) allows companies ranging from restaurants to performance venues to offer deals for 50 percent off and up and promote them through local radio stations via SweetJack, Goldin Solutions media strategist Kelsey Judd said via email. The company takes a cut each time a consumer uses a SweetJack deal, Judd said.
SweetJack is owned by Cumulus Media, Inc. (NASDAQ: CMLS), a radio broadcaster with more than 500 stations around the U.S., according to a news release.
