• 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.

I am sure we all have had this experience.
You can not go out on a Spyder and not get asked all about it at least once.

Where I ryde I think there are few of us so I get an extra helping of smiles, waves, strange looks and questions about what the heck is that.
I am pretty sure that I have scored at least 5 sales.

I am sure this has been discussed before but just in case.
BRP should harness all of this interest and give us cards with some id number on them and we could hand these out to interested parties (if we wanted to).
If we score a sale we should get a free oil change or something like that and the most sales in a given area should get some other reward.

It is doubtful to me that BRP would jump on your idea.

However, I have a suggestion.

When you receive your new owners packet you will find it contains some handout cards for potential customers.

Make a deal with your dealer to do something for you on a verified sale. Put an identifying marker on the card. If the prospect does indeed buy a :spyder2: from dealer X--you get what you bargained for from the dealer.

I know I am responsible for at least 3 :spyder2: sales--and I have received nothing--not even a thank you from anyone.
 
Yep my dealer has verified that I have been the reason for 5 sales....my reward?? Starbucks....ahhhhhh better than a jab in the eye with a sharp stick me thinks!!!!:yikes::roflblack::roflblack:
 
Our dealer takes care of us, they host an event at least once a month, gave us Spyderfest US and great friendship. I guess us Missouri riders are just extra lucky.

:agree: MoLee................we can't ask for a greater group of people!
 
I did suggest to a local dealer that they should imprint their name and number on those little hand-out/fold-out cards. I always grab a pile of them when I visit and I give 'em out like candy at Halloween.
Maybe BRP could make it easier by having a small space on those cards dedicated to that purpose...
 
It's my opinion that BRP knows we are the best sales reps they have. They were
very gracious to us at the Owners Event in MG. (never attended a Hog Rally and
got an all inclusive meal with linens, real plates and entertainment for No Charge)

My dealer knows that I send business his way, I guess that's why they call me the
spyder lady when I'm there. He takes care of me with good service, gives me little
extras like gloves and lunch but, I'm not looking for anything. I didn't even buy my
spyder there. I didn't have anyone to ask questions when I bought in '08 except the
salesman. I'm happy to answer and give honest opinions to anyone looking to make
the investment.

:agree: Owner of a '08 RS for 38 months tomorrow. I have talked to lots of people over the last 3 years and I know I'm responsible for several sales. I just want BRP to continue improving our ride and keep monitoring this blog. Oh yeah and offer a Big-Boy :spyder2: for 2013, (more space for those extra inches around the waist!) LOL!
