NBA Superstar Tracy McGrady Launches his Own Deal Site

Seven-time NBA All-Star, Tracy McGrady has just launched his own daily deal site, TMacsDeals.com, both on the web and on Facebook. Mcgrady partnered with Engager Media, a firm that specializes with social media management.

Mcgrady’s deal site offers discounts on his own merchandise, sporting goods and discounts from his sponsors like Addidas and Dick’s Sporting Goods. He is counting on his sports fans to support his new business venture so it’s just right that his site is offering sports-related deals.

The basketball superstar also doesn’t allow sponsored ads on his different social media sites and said:

“I have been approached about doing sponsored ads on my social media sites, but I think that can come across as disingenuous. With TMacsDeals, I can provide a service to my fans by helping them save money on brands they actually use.”

It’s not surprising if other sports personalities follow his lead and put up a similar business.
