Raindance Film School
"I must say that out of all the different companies I’ve worked with, the sales reps and the support I get from Groupon is the best. Groupon now figures as a very big part of our marketing campaign, for us it’s simply worked a treat."
"The participants were raving about the class, being the best value they’d ever had, and that goes equally to Raindance and to Groupon. From our point of view we were astounded by the reach – we were getting the kinds of people we had never seen before; mums with kids, pensioners, doctors, lawyers, bankers, bus drivers.
I’ve been doing Raindance for over 20 years and dealt with a lot of different sales managers. I must say that out of all the different companies I’ve worked with, the sales reps and the support I get from Groupon is the best."

About Raindance Film School
Unearthing and rewarding the very best of British movie-making since 1992, Raindance nurtures, supports and promotes independent films with a reel of writing, producing and directing courses. The company launched the British Independent Film Awards in 1998, which quickly became an industry-recognised award ceremony and has helped launch many big productions.
The Challenge
Raindance Film School wanted to raise awareness for the courses they provided, and were in need of a solution that could offer better reach with a good database of customers.
The Result
Within two months of their first deal, Raindance saw almost 2,000 people purchase Groupons and as a result had to add extra course dates to accommodate. Not only were sales of the courses themselves a huge success, attendance to their film festival shot up by an astounding 63% from the previous year.
