I have recommended that we perform a series of unaided focus groups to learn what's right and wrong with our brand, where a cross-section of customers get together and discuss their motorcycling lives and perceptions without the benefit of knowing just which brand is asking the questions.
The goal is to understand the perceptions, needs, wants and desires of the people we wish to join our family and then make any needed changes to our own "product, price, place, promotion and positioning."
Maybe we will do this, the BoD has a proposal in front of them right now. Money is tight, but personally and professionally, we could not be spending our money on *anything* more important....
Well, hopefully our BoD decides to do what's required. Anything less and we are just dealing with opinions about what's wrong and how to fix it.

recently, i was doing some recruiting at a local drag strip:...
interestingly, BMW pretty much positioned the S1000RR as an elite roadracer.
and what do them youngsters do with the damned thing?
shows what marketing people know!
(when they don't talk with their customers first......)

Listen here whipper snapper, I both rode and sold the first 1999 Suzuki Hayabusa in Connecticut (maybe that is where these grey hairs are coming from).
I am not old (only decrepit).

You tell 'em, Steve! We're not old!
Best "old" line I ever heard was spoken by an elderly lady to her equally elderly husband, "The last time I felt old was when I felt you!"

Best "old" line I ever heard ...
A really accurate corollary comes from my favorite band, i.e. Dusty Drapes and the Dusters:The older we get, the better we were.
When we get old and our kids grow up, our kids ignore us. So does BMW. Threads like this appear to be for those that don't get that.The drunker you get, the better we sound.
