RE: Uses for Clik!

Reseller,

Thanks for the examples of customers of yours who are using Clik! I think Ken P. is missing the boat with his arguments. Sure, there will be a large group of people who aren't going to spend more than $20 for a camera, but just look at the success of ($500-$1000) digital cameras. A couple other examples of people who would see a lot of value in a Clik! digital camera:

1) New parents. Parent love to take pictures of their children, and would take a zillion pictures if they didn't have the inconvience of standard cameras. Many parents will easily justify the up front cost of a digital camera.

2) Real estate people. With the volumes of pictures that they take, and the frequent need to digitize them anyway, it's a natural fit.

3) Medical field.

4) Insurance / Auto Body Repair.

The list could go on and on!

P.S. I found a great deal on CD's! Bargain Superstore is having a one-week sale on CD's. You can find just about any CD for $4.95 there. The web site says that the sale is "this week only", but I'm not sure how long it has already been running so act quick! (If the promo is still running, you'll see the prices listed at $4.95.) I placed an order, and there was no tax (except in CA and WA) or shipping (for UPS Ground). myshopnow.com

Reseller, here's my take on the Clik which I just posted on TMF board.

Subject: Re: Clik in stock and selling?

TC, I took a short trip to Syracuse yesterday and went into Comp USA. I
looked for Clik and didn't find it on the shelves. It is kept behind the counter and
two types are available... one for the digcam and the other for the laptop
computer. The salesman said sales were slow.
Now I think the Clik should be placed adjacent to the digcam display.
The Clik needs some advertising as no one knows what it's for except for
people on the thread.
Bundling as well as including the Clik for digcam must be done.
I noted the KODAK and OLYMPUS are bundling the CLIK with one of their
digcams as you posted yesterday.
IOM is behind the curve with Clik... they put out a wonderful new product and
did little to promote it.
It's about time IOM management took some responsibility and communicated
with shareholders as to their plans re Clik, their advertising goals, where they
want to take the co etc. My rating on the new management is "F".
