Why Get a Fanny Pack when a SCOTTEVEST is so much better


Monday, March 09, 2009

Need Help on New Tag Line-Please.. Thanks.

Well, the time has come where we need to come up with the perfect, short tagline that grabs people's attention and describes in a nutshell what we do, preferably with some humor so it is memorable. A close friend, Keith Fisher, came up with some really clever thoughts, see below. Our goal is to find ONE really good Tagline Don't Let Your Stuff Slow You Down 2 Don't Give Your Gadgets the Upper Hand 3 Take Back Your Commute 6 needs 1 more or 2 words Put Your Wires in Their Place 8 Put the Music Back in Your Life 6 Show Your PDA Who's Boss 3 Be Smarter than Your Smart Phone 2 Don't Let Your Wires Tie You Down 2 Connect When You Want To 4 has potential with more work/ words Connect on Your Terms 4 has potential Overcome the Clutter 2 Ditch the Office, Take the Toys 4 Great Tunes at a Moment's Notice 2 Man Purse? Rest in Peace 5 Just Say No to Fanny Packs 3 Just Say No to Man Bags 2 Who Says You Can't Take It With You? 4 has potential A Jacket that Would Make Q Proud 8 if you really could tie this one in better to BOND - I like this one Go On, Make a Spy Jealous 6 Freedom from Fanny Packs 2 Don't Let Your Stuff Get You Down 3 do not like the term STUFF Don't Let Your Stuff Slow You Down same as above Today's Digital Lifestyle,... Simplified. Sounds too much like your on your sofa listening to the stereo system Hide a Mobile Command Center in Your Pants ...... Free Your Hands and Your Mind Will Follow 4 has potential Look Like You Left it All at the Office 2 Chaos is for the Other Guy 2 Free Up for the Open Road 2 A Pocket For Everything, and Everything in its Pocket has potential Set a Speed Record through Airport Security has potential Give Your Wife Her Purse Back 2 Say Hello to Your Third Carry-on 5 Embrace Your Inner U-Haul 2 Take Life by the Pockets 5 Freedom from Belt Clips incomplete James Bond, Meet Giorgio Armani To Each According to His Carrying Capacity GOOD one It's Your Life, Take Control 3 Don't Be a Slave to Your Stuff 3 can be rewoirked better Put Your Clothing to Work for You 3 can be reworked Here are some suggestions: TEC YOU WEAR SEV - Your ultimate TEC cover-up. SEV - Your preferred protocol for personal placement Wear Your Tech Without Looking Like it Travel Like a Geek Just Dont Look Like One. Never Let Em See Your Tech Technology is Cool Belt Clips Arent Carry Everything, but Look Like Youre Not. The Difference is Inside Who says you can't take it with you

Weekend Blog Post- Scenes from Sun Valley, plus Brand New Product-beta version testers needed

Ok, so i was kidding about the new product and testers needed. I just wanted to see if words still matter, or if video rules without words. I took the trouble to bullet point what I talked about in my post. I realize your time is valuable and before you invest in 3 minutes watching me talk about something you don't care about, you might want to know if you can skip the post or portions thereof So, here's the headlines in order of what i ramble about today. Always unscripted, and never without a dull momment :) * new tag line, TEC /You/WEAR, thoughts; morphing from SCOTTEVEST TO SeV * Live Web Cam at new Store, and ability to click to call us via skype video for help. Jorge thanks! * Should I carry more products, e.g., Monster Remote for iPhone to control iPhones/iTouch, iPod, as well as www.Mophie.com battery back, etc.. Only accessories that I personally endorse. Thoughts? * Margaux and poodles introduced. Watch Poodles Playing * Shout out to Tim Wolfe from our Chicago Fullfillment Facility who can't believe how gorgeous it is here * Wild Poodles of Sun Valley, and Poodle commercial, why Labradoodles and Golden doodles are 1/2 poodle. Poodles are much smarter than any other breed, so why combine?! * The wolf pack a mile from our house killed a cougar. Living in the Wild. * You can end here if you want, just showing the drive into Sun Valley, where you can see the mountain * All surrounding by Mt Bald, Sun Valley, Idaho This will be last post using www.blip.tv, unless you say not to end it. I change some settings so hopefully it will be better than before. Let me know if you agree to switch to YouTube, see comparisons below Scott, PS, it takes me longer but should i do summaries like this for all blog posts? If so, I will ask your help to indicate in the comments or on YouTube rating scale shown if worthwhile to watch so others won't waste their time too. Lastly, if you want to learn about anything, and I mean anything, just ask me.... You might be surprised by my answer... :-) Thanks

Search for new Headquarters Continues-See Videos of Contenders

watch this collection of videos of the contenders and help us decide where to move.  See the link below for a reference to the maps.  It is admittedly hard to refer to properties, but if you see the list below and refer by some characteristic we will understand.

 I am not entirely sure but I think you may be able to put your comments directly on the google map from link below.  Note that Green means we really like, yellow is maybe and red is NO, but feel free to convince us otherwise.
