Input wanted!

Post by lwrenn »

Before I put up on web can I get some feed back! I have thick skin so go ahead. Am placing on a web site as advertising.

I'll beat Doug to this one. It's a "head" not a "bathroom". It's in the video. Get as many statements from customers up on the site, saying how much they loved your charter. It doesn't matter how much you say that it's "great", it means more to potential customers if they see and hear it from previous clients. The same video is on twice?? Although I like the music on the video, I think you should have some of that crappy Jimmy Buffet music on it, the foreigners love that stuff. How ever you can do it, get reviews about your charter on sites like Tripadvisor, debbiescaribbeanresortreviews.com, etc... even if you write them yourself. Post some trips on Youtube, everyone goes there to check things out. You can get a Flip video recorder for 120.00 bucks and post it easily on Youtube. http://www.theflip.com/products_flip_ul ... GgodtT_4mQ Thats a great spot down where you are, been there once. Hopefully we can get down there again someday!

Thanks I know its a head but the person who never has owned a boat doesn't. The tips on video are great. As to Buffet songs they are played to death! At four pm every day its JB time. I'll take pass on Jimmey. Captain Larry Wren 305-360-4900 www.apirateschoice.com [img]http://www.bertram33.com/photogallery/p ... Choice.jpg[/img]

You got me to spend a buck on the song you suggested! I went to load it and photobucket will not let you load your own music. I am trying to do this on a low budget but I am getting into uncharted territories quickly. Any help from cyberspace or is there a developer out there that wants some spare cash?

Hi Larry. Great video & tunes. It is very true it's a small world. One of your pictures at about 1:09 with 4 guys in it, one holding a sailfish release flag, I believe was a very close friend of mine that past away this past summer. I don't know if you saved names or not but the guy on the right with a yellow shirt & green pants looks like Mike Lukasievich. He was an attorney from Fort Lauderdale. Can you verify this?

That picture is from last December 2008. The above name is not any of the customers that booked the trip but could be a guest. The anglers were from the east coast. Captain Larry Wren 305-360-4900 www.apirateschoice.com [img]http://www.bertram33.com/photogallery/p ... Choice.jpg[/img]

Larry... My only comment is that the flag you show several times has text in a font which is pretty much unreadable with the default screen size.. a simpler font might be more readable. Other than that it is a great job. Frank B - IRGuy@aol.com "The problem with being a liberal is that eventually you run out of other people's money!"

Very nice Larry; You've done us 33 guys very proud. On another note; your tower is the most extreme I've seen on a 33, at least on the fbc, how much rolling does she give you in a beam sea? and as a friend of mine once said: " being up in a tower like that will develop your balls fairly quickly" again, very nice.
