i been in marketing for nearly 30 years and helped build three $40+ million
companies and i can tell you without a doubt your idea will cost you a lot
of money and you will loose. you can't spend enough money to compete with
best buy becaue your not best buy nor will you ever be. you have to be YOU
and market YOU and be different in order to get folks to consider NOT going
to the big mass market retailer and come to you. this advise comes from a
man who sold his marketing services worldwide for $1000/day with a 20 day
minimum PLUS expenses and who has NEVER had a marketing campaign failure.
save your money and redirect its' energy into some other campaign idea that
will float and have cause/affect.
