McDuck 0 #1 May 6, 2006 If you were an energy drink enthusiast, what incentives from a new company would encourage you strongly to change from the energy drink of your choice to the new one?

McDuck 0 #5 May 6, 2006 QuoteIf it actually tasted good. What if it tasted good? If you could ask for something reasonable, and expect to receive it as a gift from the company, what would you ask for? I said tickets to the Holiday Boogie at Eloy.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

karenmeal 0 #6 May 6, 2006 No.. wouldn't want gifts, there would have to be strings attached. I would just want a drink that tasted good. How about they take the money that they would spend on "gifts" and just reduce the cost of the drink instead?

McDuck 0 #9 May 6, 2006 Okay, we can make this more complicated than it has to be (a trend here), or we can take it at face value. What if this company worked out a deal with a canopy manufacturer to put their logo on a product, or if they paid for a weekend of skydiving at Perris or Eloy or any DZ near you, or if they offered 30 minutes of tunnel time? Would you not be more inclined to try their product?Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

karenmeal 0 #10 May 6, 2006 Less inclined. I stay away from companies that present offers like that. But maybe I'm just weird. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McDuck 0 #14 May 6, 2006 We're talking hypothetical boobies here. Plus, what would you expect, exactly, of said boobies? I mean, if you just want good wanking copy, that's one thing, but if you're looking for constant Racktravision, that may be unattainable.

NtheSeaOrSky 0 #21 May 6, 2006 Well for me to switch for life it would have to taste good, but as of late I have found myself a contest junkie - I blame it on the new lottery Seriously, taste and price being comparable, I find myself getting the 'instant winner look under the label/cap' or 'collect cap/wrappers and send in for free stuff' kind of things. Then again, I have been brainwashed so YMMV. .Life is not fair and there are no guarantees... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McDuck 0 #22 May 6, 2006 Ah HAH! Now we see some incentive. The whole "under the cap" thing really seems to catch people up, huh? that's really not a bad idea. And if the prize was something skydiving related and worthwhile, even better, eh? P.S. I need to ask you about getting a fix for my addiction...it's been FAR too long since I went riding.
