    I LOVE IT!!!! Now I am not saying I would hire these guys or guy or whatever mouse and man, but this is pretty cool in my book. However, I think they need more than just a video and a form.

      That was pretty much my reaction.

      I feel compelled to go back to it now and again.
      It's definitely out of the box thinking.

      But, they do need to take you somewhere after
      the video.

        After watching that video, if I was a small to medium sized business that didn't know anything about "interweb" or "the Google," I would be very interested in what they have to offer and I would have a least requested more information.

        I really liked how upfront and brash they were as well as their humor.

        I think it's a refreshing break from the traditional marketing mold and I wouldn't be surprised at all if they are making very good profits.

    Now, that's 'outside of the box' thinking. Personally I like it as opposed to all the 'flashy cars/mansions/flying cash' videos I see.

    Definitely would like to get a peek at his test results...

      There is something very Apple about it. The simplicity and calm of the video makes them look like a very friendly business who would be easy to work with.

      My only problem with them is I personally like to research the hell out of anyone I do business with. I even Google my clients to see what kind of web presence they have, what niche they operate under that name etc.

      So I would personally be uncomfortable hiring them.

      But I do love the idea and the way it is presented.

    Well i am not saying that what they have there is the best idea but I think it is really better and I mean about twenty times better than all the flashy cars and boxes of US dollars all around the place But I think they should do more than just that.

    I like it!

    From a marketers prospective ok the offer sucks and we wouldn't (or shouldn't) be interested in the offer.

    Plus the whole page could do with a re-vamp and an autoplaying video which is compressed so it loads quicker and less forms on the right hand side (but then i suppose the more contact methods they have the better they can follow up with the leads).

    All that being said it's new, fresh and i imagine with the recent boom in offline marketing most of these business's will like the new approach compared to the hard sells they normally receive.

      That's a strange one. It's a pr4 with a little over a thousand links and not one page indexed in gOOgle. I don't see that everyday. So much for a page full of content.

        Very cool video.....but it's not revealing much information about the services that they provide.

        But it is clever.....that makes us all to disgussed it here !

    Genius.

    I have a relatable experience...back when I was a working musician I hated sending out my bio to booking agents. Your bio is your musical resume, and besides not feeling comfortable bragging about my accomplishments I rightly surmised that all bios started to bleed together into one giant mountain of conceit to the poor souls that had to read through them while making a decision as to which performer was going to be playing their club. So I wrote a fake, tongue in cheek bio that looked like this:

    Blah blah blah, hype. Hype hype hype. Major name dropping. Hype!

    I mailed 10 of these fake bios off to clubs I wanted to perform at, and about a week later started making follow-up calls. I'd identify myself, and before I could finish pronouncing my last name I'd hear:

    "Oh man, I love your bio! When can you play?"

    I got 9 out of 10 potential gigs from that mailing.

    These guys are using the same trick, although in a gentler way. Instead of following the herd and presenting themselves the same way that the majority of marketers do, they're standing apart and having a little fun in the process. I'll bet they're staying pretty busy.

    Will
