My Interviews with "Miss Coupon Diva" and Money Saving Mom

Since December I've been managing product at a deal site startup called AskForADeal. While the deal space is crowded and might rival the mobile photo app space in that regard we think we have something special. The company, which was founded by @Jason, is built on the basic premise of giving customers the ability to create the deal they're interested in. The site allows a visitor to select a company their interested in, a percentage they would like off and how much money they're willing to commit to spending. It's then up to the company to grant the deal or make a counter offer. It's a one-on-one interaction that differs significantly from other deal sites which are built on set deals and groups.

I'm excited about the next couple of months as we have some really cool features that both deal hunters and companies will love. In order to bring more attention about what we're doing and also help educate our visitors who are seeking savings I tracked down some of the foremost authorities on couponing. If you're looking for advice on savings and deals check out our conversations below:
