Well, done, he could have plugged TF though 😉 Well done Andy :thumbsup:


Hehe, if yhou watch at the beginning (in the middle of the bath) was our new website address www.nofinger.co.uk

Half way through they realised and when they put up a static pic of the products, the floor manager came running over to remove it (i got wrong for that). Not my fault though , i got there at 7.00am to setup and it was on the display for 3.5 hrs before they realised , heheh.

A shameless plug is ever i saw one, hehehe.

Cheers
Andy

O yes, did i mention, you guys should give CT a go , its bloody good i was well impressed, hehehe.:lol:

I'm not sure, the buyers away until next week, we'll see.
 
LOL quality mate. How badly was he trying to hurry u up. 🙂


They did promise me 7-8mins but i think they overran with the ladders or something before me, i just thought i'm not going to **** this up by being rushed, hehe.

Cheers

I don't think it showed your product off very well becuase they were pushing you so much. If the QVC buyer doesn't get the sales they forcast then it will be through no fault of your own.

Hope you get another go at it mate:thumbsup:, although i'm sure once was nerve racking enough:lol:

Yes the pressure was on, but i think we showed and acheived a few important features about CT and dispelled a few pre-conceptions (hopefully)

1. Fast Application - because it comes off the roll from the bottom its completely different to normal tape

2. Simple - just unfold the tape to mask the other side of the corner

3. Slop in the sealant - Don't waste time having to put in a neat bead now

4. Clean - i didn't need a shed load of kitchen roll

5. Job done - pull off the CT and the jobs complete. Pub time.

Hopefully it might have shown a few more guys that its worth its weight in gold if you want a great finish when your pushed for time.

Cheers

I hope you don't think i was knocking the product, I'm a bit weird in the head and I like siliconing for some reason so I haven't used your product :crazy: but from the demos i've seen on your website it does look very easy.

But for public QVC viewers who have no idea about your product I think they rushed you (he must have wasted 2 mins himself just by doing that!) and if any tradesmen were watching then I think the fact they didn't let you show how to do the 3 way corner would have some thinking it's harder than it really is, which might have lost you a few sales.

Good luck with it mate:thumbsup:

We hadn't noticed...:lol:
 
Hi Guys,

We're thinking of remaking our demo video along the same lines of this demo, (albit a little more serious).

But we'd like to get a little feedback from you all first, so anyone thats seen it could you just answer a few questions for me please,

http://www.qvcuk.com/ukdetail/ViewOptions.aspx?viewOption=watchvideo&item=561347&country=UK

1. If you're already a user of CT, has this helped show you that it can be used around baths and not just tiles?

2. Has this demo helped to dispell the pre-conception that cornertape is slow to apply? i.e its NOT LIKE MASKING TAPE AT ALL.

3. Seeing it used in a real situation, has it encouraged you to give it a try at some point?

Your feedback would be invaluable,:thumbsup:

Many thx
Andy.

Hi Gooner/Stevee,

Thanks for the reply, if you guys don't mind would you goto our other website www.cornertape.co.uk watch that demo video and let me know which one is better, so either the demo on QVC with the bath (real time) or the (holywood, glitz) cornertape demo.

Gooner, if you PM me i'll point you in the direction of your nearest retailer in South wales.

Stevee, your best bet is an internet retailer, PM me and i'll send you a link to a couple.

Thx
Andy
