This is not a sales pitch. I'm sincerely asking for feedback on what we could do, or do better, in order to earn your business.
Even if it's not something I can fix, it would still be good to know. For instance, I realize a lot of people have a loyalty to certain vendor as a result of a long standing personal or business relationship. I go out of my way not to spam this forum with commercial posts so I hope this isn't viewed as objectionable. Brian |

You could be more proactive. Bruce Stone trolls the Classifieds and when someone says I Need - He says I've got. By changing the behavior of some, you create a wave of change. They recommend you and so on...
You're trying to change a culture. We have all kind of grown up 914 wise with the Bird. Other than Dave Darling, they aren't really proactive here. They rest on their laurels. Be present. Be more vocal. Mark Whitesell doesn't just sell great product, he promotes it. If someone says I need - he says I've got... GPR needs to develop a 'personality' by being a part of the community. |

GPR needs to develop a 'personality' by being a part of the community. Great answer!! Actually, although I had seen some members here mention GPR in some posts, I had no idea who they meant. Those generic three-letter company names are not very rememberable (is that a real word?). I've bought stuff from 914Rubber because everyone here knows Mark and everyone has great things to say about him. As stated above, he's a "part of the community," not just a vendor. That being said, I just checked out your web site and you seem to carry a lot of parts. I spot-checked prices for a few parts I recently purchased from other vendors. Some were higher and some were lower. Is there a mailing list I can get on? I'd probably buy parts from you. I just added your web site to my browser list. Oh, regarding your comment about the banner ads... never even noticed them!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Guess I've learned to block banner ads from my field of view. |
