clint 1 #1 December 19, 2005 I'm thinking of using this picture for an Ad to bring in tandems. I would like to know what you think of it. Thanks, clint Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sid 1 #3 December 19, 2005 it needs boobies Pete Draper, Just because my life plan is written on the back of a Hooter's Napkin, it's still a life plan.... right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IanHarrop 41 #4 December 19, 2005 I think Sid is right, there's no women in your ad. Men like women and will go where the women are. Maybe your tandem master should be a woman! One with big boobies that we'd all like to be strapped on to!

cocheese 0 #5 December 19, 2005 excellent ! perfect. But boobies will sell more tandems. It's the law. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSOK 0 #6 December 19, 2005 It looks cool... but for some reason it has some blacked out areas... you might need to fix that if you want people to actually be able to reach you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnyshrek 0 #7 December 19, 2005 good but why dont you have a plane in the centre..or boobieshttp://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats? ARE YOU ONE OF THEM? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 1 #8 December 19, 2005 I have to agree with everyone that a female passenger would be a better bet. The picture is really good but 2 large males smashed together doesn't shout " YOU'VE GOT TO TRY THIS" to the masses... especially in Utah. The person who blacked out the picture and resized it to fit sure did a fine job.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

clint 1 #9 December 19, 2005 Does anyone have a digital photo of a chick/lady/woman/honey/ tandem that I could use instead of the 2 dudes? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelpdiver 2 #10 December 19, 2005 Is the background image accurate, over the LZ, or was this a special jump done to get good images? I'd be very disappointed if the actual jump was over less interesting terrain. Would be SkyRide league. Otherwise, yeah, just put a woman in there as the passenger and you're ready to go.

Eule 0 #11 December 19, 2005 QuoteIs the background image accurate, over the LZ, or was this a special jump done to get good images? I agree that this is important - the picture should be over what you normally see. It also looks like there's only one person under canopy, but I'm not 100% sure due to the image size. You might put in a picture of a tandem under canopy. Reason why is, whuffos might think "Oh sh-t, we fall together but I have to land the parachute by myself!! Aaaahhhh!!" and get scared off. Another thing in the "make it simple for the whuffos" direction: the "120 mph" point in the box might make people think the _airplane_ is going 120 mph. Maybe having the last few lines look something like this would be a little clearer: * Over 35 Seconds of Free-fall at 120 MPH! This is a less strong suggestion, and you may have already done this, but: if you're using a 1-800 number in the ad, also consider putting your regular phone number in as well. Couple of reasons: when your ad with the naked female tandem instructor gets posted on the Internet, causing people all over the world to want to jump there, it's hard (and not free) to dial a 1-800 number from outside North America. A more mundane reason: A DZ that I jump at subscribes to 1-800-Skydive and uses that as their phone number on their ads, literature, etc. This is mostly OK for them because a lot of their tandem business comes from a major metro area (5 million +/-) that's about 45 minutes away. But for people like me that come in from another state, 1-800-Skydive won't connect me to them when I'm at home. I've wanted to call them before and had to dig through a couple of pieces of paper before I found their "real" phone number. If you use any of these suggestions, we can discuss my very reasonable consulting fees. :) EulePLF does not stand for Please Land on Face. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnRich 4 #13 December 19, 2005 QuoteI'm thinking of using this picture for an Ad to bring in tandems. I think you're crazy to be in tandem freefall that close to someone else's open parachute! Well, at least that's what an experienced jumper is going to say about that photo. But for the whuffos that won't matter, and I agree with what everyone else is saying.

sstovall 0 #14 December 20, 2005 Don't know if it matters to you, but last time I was in Vegas they were handing out brochures for Skydive Las Vegas that looked very similar. But not bad looking by any means, just strap a hot half naked blonde on the front of the tandem in the next one.
