Super spotting, Andy.
Ford does get it.
@ScottMonty rules!
I’ve been a fan of Ford for a long time…a fan of their cars if not their corporate culture.
But the challenge I see in terms of “the Ford brand experience” focuses on their dealer network not the manufacturer.
Many dealers continue to be “old school” auto industry regardless of what they advertise re: no hassle this or that.
Dealers own the “last mile” of customer experience and shape a customer’s view of Ford just as much as any action taken at the corporate level.
That said, getting a signed pic is “way cool.”
Thanks for stirring things up.
Keep creating…a brand worth raving about,
Mike
This is just one more reason Ford has been on my radar lately. Others are the exec pay cut and the refusal of bailout money, plus some good reviews I’ve read for their vehicles.
Craig Daitch, you are one good looking fellow. Andy, this is great for Ford. Scott Monty is doing wonders over there, and as an auto enthusiast, they are feeding Craig’s passion. That’s where this is so brilliant.
Ford couldn’t do this with technology alone. This probably couldn’t have happened through a traditional agency relationship. This was people being people. With great results.
