WWRD
« on: February 04, 2009, 09:47:03 PM »

Question:  In these tough economic times what is the best business model to maintain and grow your business?

In an effort to answer this question I visited Bruce Rossmeyer’s Daytona Harley-Davidson to see how this marketing genesis was handling this matter.

As you can clearly see here the theory of reducing your inventory to increase cash flow is not being exercised at this dealership.  However in their defense it is going to be Bike Week in a couple of weeks.

What about limiting your product line to decrease potential exposure?  Well again it does not appear to be their course of action…new lines all over the place…Sucker Puck Sally, Thunder Mountain, American Iron Horse, Eddie Trotta, Hellbound Steel and others

After thinking about it perhaps this direction has increased his customer count/sales.

AND THEN IT CAME TO ME…WWRD…What Would Rossmeyer Do?  What else?  Add on to the ready-made carnival he already has in place.

What better pleasure would you obtain as a resident of these nice condos then to have this at your front door?

As I stated in the first post, this guy is a marketing genesis and as PT Barnum stated,
“There is a sucker born every minute” 



To those of you that have purchased your bikes from him GOD Bless You for assisting the economy on a higher level
