Wick et. al., thanks for the warm welcome.
I'll leave you with this. Bought my two High school kids GZ gear t-shirts, which they have worn to school. (FYI, I don't put my kids money in savings so they can earn the overwheling 1+%, rather I let them invest it, which is actually how I found out about GZFX.) Anywho, they have been on a word of mouth campaign, because they understand the value to their investment, and have been trying to gin up subs by telling kids at school about GZFX and they "say" a couple have told them that they are subs now.
So I bought these things for 12.50 a pop, probably costs GZFX $5/6 at most.
Kids spotted it right away. If GZFX gave away t-shirts to say 6+ month or better subs, for their kids, word of mouth could potentially have an impact, not sure since I'm not an ad guy, but similar things have had a great effect, as long as the real value is there.
Can you say "SNAPPLE". It took a corporation to screw that one up.
The point is to continue to focus on value and the subs will come. Just a thought.
Last post for the day, hit my limit.
