I think the commonwealth bank non marketing gurus might be onto something(you know the American ad guys who suggest retirement to shebangabang (New Zealand)) In their latest ad they are talking to a bunch of school kids about saving . Yep quite outrageous and the commbank execs don't think it's such a great idea ,but perhaps they have are not too far from the truth (I had agood laugh at the sketch of the girlfriend shaking the bloke upside down with coins and notes falling out of his pockets ,I think they would be more accurate tho if it was a picture of the blokes kids shaking him upside down to get the money out)
.I have taught quite a few guys over the years who ask how much the kit is and all that kind of stuff (they don't seem too troubled by the price tag)and then finish with "i'll just run it by my partner " . wrong move guys . Strange but they are often never seen with a kite again.
(I'd love to be a fly on the wall when they run it by the partner probably gos something like this "the sheds full of your bloody toys that you never use and now you want to spend how much on more bloody toys ?" They probably have a point .Oh well it keeps the beaches relatively uncrowded with kiters I suppose.) Perhaps the guys should get the wife whisperer from the vb gold ad over when they discuss it.
Now I know that there are female kiters out there who might find this offensive. I just thought I would share my experience and do not mean to offend.If I have offended please accept my apologies
