You will be describing daily deals with thoroughly researched, informative selling points that range from the straight-forward to the whimsical and bizarre. Avoid marketing clichés, aim for descriptions rooted in complete transparency and embellished with well-crafted absurdities. Your description must achieve two things; first, it must clearly explain the deal and present compelling imagery of what the customer experience will be, second, it must be entertaining to read. Respectable amount of experience is desired, but not necessary, we'll work with anyone who can write succinctly, persuasively, and intelligently.
