Has anyone got this email from SS? :eek: I am not sure where this is going from a SS standpoint but I don't like it. :eek: :eek:

This is not the way I want to see SS going. This is totally stupid.

Oh I think it is 'clever'.

I wish that cleverness was directed a different direction.

It is 'cute'. That is what is 'wrong' with it.

JMHO


Give em credit for trying!

I have not received that email but if this is all that it is about, I don't see anything wrong with it. Someone who has been thinking about doing a retrofit will likely jump on it. I mean, after all, 20% off.

It states repairs/tuneup, not retrofit nor upgrade.

Still 20% which I assume does not apply to parts cost.

New ad director?
I don't see a problem. 98% of advertising success is just getting someone's attention... Often campy does that. Apparently this one did. :)

Didn't mention my "original,"
Just the later copies.

Sometimes, I think ShopSmith
doesn't like Cast Iron!

Seriously, the ad did it's job.
