• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Do you think the fold-up info cards are a good idea?

The Owners Welcome packets come with two packs of fold-up marketing info cards.

For those of you that carry them and hand them out; do you think they are a good
idea...? And do you think we should be able to have more available to us...?

Personally... I'm out of them. They went like Halloween candy in my area. Everytime
I turned around; someone was asking me about our RT, and I found myself giving
them one. Seems like a pretty good tool to cover the basics, and really easy to store.

just curious...
 
Never got them with my welcome package. Wish I could get my hands on some. They would probably shorten the stops at the gas station.
 
I received a Spyder Ambassador package when I bought my second :spyder2:. Included was a 2009 Spyder Ambassador Pin, a really nice photo album, a patch, and a lot of advertising cards as well as several Spyder dvd's to hand out.

I gave out most of that in 2009--but after haveing a discrepancy with BRP in 2010 about mileage pins being transferrable to other :spyder2:'s--I quit handing out the free advertising. I still am polite to people when they ask about the :spyder2:--but I am no longer their best salesman in Alaska. I know of 4 :spyder2:'s sold because of me.

I did not hand out much of the stuff I received with my 2010 RTS welcome pack.
 
The only time i would advertise for a company is when that company stands behind it's product,
I don't advertise for BRP.
 
Dealers have them normally sitting on counter...or by display.

I have been in a couple different dealers and they both had some sitting around for people to pick up ...I am sure they would be glad to give anyone a few that asked for them......:thumbup:
 
I hand them out so I can get back to what I was doing (gassing up, eating, shopping, etc). They're an easy way to "move on" if you get my drift...
 
Took me four seasons and three Spyders before I got the cards to hand out. They are useful. I would have liked to have had them in the past.
 
I got 10 from my dealer when I picked up my Spyder. I got 20 more with the welcome pack. I really like them because handing them out reduces my refuel time a gas stations. ;)
 
Our dealer gave us handfuls of them to distribute along with his business card.
The Spyder creates such interest and a large percentage of inquiries are curious looky-loos
so we have become selective about who we give them to (ie. if they say they plan to make a visit to the dealer.)
Otherwise, we'd go through them like candy.
