Silverymoon92 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Does anyone else (judging by the teasers) think this is looking a bit like a rugby top... BUT i like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungalow Bill Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Surely the worst marketing campaign ever. If they want us to buy it they should show us what it looks like. The teasers were good for a week or so but this is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverymoon92 Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 The only thing we know is that it has a collar and a white stripe down the sides. people are paying ?40 for a top they have never seen its madness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I P Knightley Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 The only thing we know is that it has a collar and a white stripe down the sides. people are paying ?40 for a top they have never seen its madness While I agree that I can't follow the logic of this type of selling, I think it's fair for them to assume that there will be a large proportion of the support who will buy next season's kit regardless of the detail of the design. Weird way to go about it, but maybe there's some follow-up plan for marketing the blind faith of the Hearts support... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its great marketing! FWIW some people will buy it regardless, so this campaign is a bit of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Lithuania Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I have seen it on a website, can't remember which, otherwise I'd post it. I have to say, it looks really smart. Maroon top and white shorts for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigaro Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 There would be a lot more talking if we could see it. It wouldnt be prolonged interest though. The website wouldnt get as many hits either. Its good marketing. People are talking about it. The hints they are dropping are interesting as it shows a collar and some white, making people discuss what it could be.

Carl Weathers Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I'm not really keen on this as a marketing concept.

Whilst I'm sure you know more about it than me;), I think the steady drip of discussion helps to build up the launch. If they are confident in their product, which I'm sure they will be, this seems to be a very good way to build up the marketing campaign. It builds anticipation, and people look forward to the new hints, increasing traffic to the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allystrachan Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Yep, okay then, I'm lying who mentioned lying? all i meant was that you had seen the strip and didnt think to post it here or even remember where it was... hence the failure to your post.

spennyboy Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I'm led to believe it will be shown in full before the deadline for the discount. I think it looks great from what you can see.

I might have liked it more if they previewed it a week or two in advance but this seems to be dragging on for yonks. I'm sure the kit will be good though.

chesser13 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Folks - anybody know when the strip's actually unveilled? Seems to me there's been a few 'teasers' on the site but nothing for the past wee while... FWIW, i've heard (complete rumour here! ) that the away top's black! Being a traditionalist, I would prefer a white top with maroon short etc, but reckon black would make a pretty smart 3rd (Euro) top... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
