Madtony, here goes my amateur product survey.HAHA
First of all I bought Ginseng Rush (nine bottles)at the SafeWay store in Elk Grove, Ca.. Shelf space consisted of two rows of Rush product (only ginseng rush). I est. the shelf space would hold approx. 20-24 bottles.
The cost was 1.29 + tax & CRV for a total of $ 1.43 per bottle.
The test was conducted at a State Retirement Conference which included large Investment Companies (approx. 350).
Since I only had 9 bottles (wanted to take two cases but the wholesaler messed up the order)I had to ration out (6 oz) the rush for each sampler (10). The remaining 4 bottles was consumed by myself and four others (2 males and 2 females) drinking Volka Rushs.HAHA
The over all consensus was Rush had a very good taste. Most stated it had a Root Beer smell and taste.
All said it tasted much better than Red Bull.
The following are the comments (good and bad) made by the samplers:
Lighter texture than Red Bull.
Too much sugar (39g)
Do they make a Diet version
Bottle looks too much like a beer
They need to change the label, doesn't have any eye appeal
Need to put it in a plastic bottle for carrying convenience
Needs to be put in a can
One sampler stated when he use to drinks Red Bull he gets heart burn real bad (thus the reason he quit). Note; the next day I asked him if he got heart burn from drinking Rush and he stated "NO".
Several stated that Red Bull left a bad after taste. Upon checking the next day with them, no one reported any after taste with Rush.
The Volka Rushs (named by one of the samplers) was reported to be very good by all (including myself even though I'm a beer drinker only) and it got better the more we drink.HAHA
**All of the samplers were Investment Companies, CEO, Vice Presidents, Marketing Directors, Chief Investment Officers and Portfolio Managers.
One of the samplers is an Analyst on a Radio Stock Show Program in Chicago ( WBBM am ). He said he's sure the station wouldn't let him talk about a subpenny stock, but he was going to check anyway. **Wouldn't that be something if he could **.
He was the CEO of the group and is a regular energy drink user and he really liked Ginseng Rush. He even liked it better than the one he is currently drinking (sorry I can't remember the name) and was going to try find a store that is selling Rush.
He also said he was going to research the company and get back to me with his thoughts/analyst.
The reason Red Bull was used for comparison was due to all of the samplers had drink Red Bull at one time or another.
SORRY for the long post and my dumb survey. GLTA
