A business Insider survey of 16 small business owners in San Francisco who have done business with Groupon found that more than half of of the owners would not want to do another Groupon deal.

Even with just over half of the business owners not wanting to participate in another Groupon daily deal, more than 60 percent of the surveyed businesses called the deal a success. The majority of respondents offered between 70 and 80 percent off, according to charts on the website.

Just under 60 percent of the survey's respondents recevied between a 25 and 50 percent revenue split with the Chicago-based Groupon.

On Digital Trends' website, they quote local business owners, including Mark Pastore, owner of Incanto, who called daily deal websites "the lowest form of marketing, like puns are the lowest form of humor."

A survey on Groupon by Cooper Murphy, a UK marketing company, found that 78 percent of local merchants surveyed think Groupon is "stingy." The poll found that 82 percent were unsatisfied with the levels of repeat business.
