So before I head home from work, I just have to get this off my chest after recently listening to those ads. To quote our favorite poster, those were a disaster!
I'm guessing using a celebs name in the ad would cost money. So I'm sure theres reasons we aren't aware of. I'm sure FUSE would have loved to have said Tiger Woods if they felt it made economical sense.
But was that a computer reading it??? I mean, those just sounded bad. I dont want them to spend money on a big marketing company to make ads for them, but come on???? I think anyone on this board could have made a better sounding add.
I love they are doing radio ads, but that was extremely dissapointing. It reminded of those ads when your watching TV late at night, and then like a 20 sec local ad takes over the normal national ad and has some guy talking in a cheesy outfit to catch your attention. But we are better than that. Our name is on Tiger Woods bag. We are associated with Foster, Ortiz, DJ. Those ads were awful.
I sent my first comment ever to IR. I respectfully made my opinion known on the matter. I recommended they use social media to have a competition for a 30s ad. I told her most investors just care about the company and would make submissions out of goodwill. But that they should offer a hat or tshirt just for fun. Use this social media they tout so much. And I asked, if they aren't willing to do a public competition for an ad or anything like that, if they'd accept private submissions.
This was our first standard marketing attempt, and they blew it in my opinion.
