It Takes More Than A Great Ad: Willie The Labradoodle Must Love Your Dog Food!

VB likes this Video Pat and thanks for the view!

Pat - That commercial was fabulous. I was it at RainCamp in LA. Bet Willie will eat the Pedigree if he is hungry enough.

You're right, though. If the product sucks, who cares about the ad? Sorta like pricing the home to sell...or not.

Patricia, The commercial is adorable but I have made the choice to feed the dog food my veterinarian recommends so it would not sway me. 

Pat - I had seen this video before but enjoyed watching it again.  As for Willie who I love try gradually mixing the Pedigree in with the food he's been eating and maybe you'll see him eating the "stuff."

I love my dog so much that it does not matter what the price of her food is.  She is my best friend.  I feed her expensive Salomon Oil from Dinovite on her food and add flax seed oil and a mixture of healthy supplements to her veterinarian recommended expensive food.  She protects my home, and she is a source of continuing joy that no price can effect.  I will work hard for her food!!!!

Beautiful ad.   Just make sure the stuff you are feeing Willie is not all chemicals.  We wan't him to lead a long and healthy life.

Hi Pat - This reminds me of the Wheat Thins ad where the buy or the gal grab flying crackers out of the air in their mouth.  But this being in slow motion is way more fun to watch and is beautifully done.  Almost makes me want to buy some and I don't even have a dog!

Most dogs like a little variety in their diet. Notice what happens when you drop something on the floor? How often are you quick enough to pick it up before it becomes a tasty snake for your four legged friend.

Pat....enjoyed the video.....Rocky eats anything and everything....even what he shouldn't.....

Hi Pat, great video. My dog will eat just about anything. We do feed her Science Diet which she loves. Without great marketing, we are done!

I love that commercial too.  My little weiner dog Jack eats whatever is in front of him.  He isn't picky at all.

Love the video Pat.  The dogs are beautiful.  My Kelly, a 10 y/o 25 lb rescue mutt has been eating Natural Choice by Nutro all her life.  It was recommended by the vet when we first rescued her at about 8 weeks old.  Of course she is now on the senior version as she is getting older (again recommended by the vet) but she still eats it...no questions asked.  We do give her table scraps and treats (shhhh, can't say the "T" word in my house) daily but the point is, it's a mid-priced dog food and she is still healthy and happy.

BTW, I'm headed to RainCamp in Orlando next month and can't wait!

Boy am I hungry, willing to work hard for a treat. Animals sell, are not so different than some types of people we deal with. The trick is to make people hungry, thirsty for your product and to use you as the broker in the middle to make a sale, purchase happen. So buyers, sellers trust you like an animal does the guy or gal running the can opener, or banging the side of a grain coffee can.

You couldn't have made a stronger point if you tried Patricia.

All the marketing, now matter how good it is, won't sell the "merchandise" if it's not a good product.

Pat - Excellent point, we definitely need to back up our marketing with even better service and Willie looks like he would have fit right into that commercial.

Tonight I got the best thank you ever.  The children of one of my sellers, hung the under contract sign on the post and then ran up and gave me a big hug.  It doesn't get any better than that!

I loved that video.  Have you checked out the BARF diet for dogs?  B.A.R.F = Bones And Raw Food.  Google it.

Pat - That's it!  Willie needs to conduct his own taste test. Good thing Pedigree doesn't require you to sign a contract with a legal obligation to continue doing business with them.  LOL.
