If Segway won't do it, let's produce our own commercial that we can place on all of our personal websites. If it's good, certainly Segway and Amazon will put links to it as well.
Let's brainstorm, then produce the commercial!
I'm thinking along the lines of "Segway - affordable, safe, clean, controlled mobility."
We could move on to the segments:
Affordable:
* Less than 10 cents per day in electricity
* Never pay for a car payment, car insurance or vehicle registration fees again
* Never pay for parking again
* Never pay for gas again
Safe:
* Once you learn how to glide, it's virtually impossible to lose control
* Safer and easier to control than a bicycle, wheelchair, electric cart, etc.
Clean:
* Non-polluting
* Tires are non-marking for interior use
Controlled:
I think "Compact" should go in there too:
* takes up less room:
* 5 times less space than a person pushing a stroller
* 4 times less space than a bicycle
* 3 times less space than an electric cart
* half the space of someone pulling a suitcase on wheels
* half the space of a wheelchair
As well as "Convenient":
* In urban environments, travel distances up to 4 miles faster than driving and parking!
Mobility:
* Also enables those who are mobility challenged to enjoy the world without the stigma of a cane, walker, or wheelchair.
* Whether you have MS, MD, Arthritis, Asthma, Emphysema, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, a bad hip or have even lost a leg (or two), you can glide around effortlessly.
* Have several testimonials
* "I have MS - before, I couldn't even get around my house... now... "
* "I have arthritis - before, it was difficult even to get to ... "
* Show some people taking them shopping or to the bank or post office or something. Or in their office.
What do you all think? It could be put into a one minute video for sure, couldn't it? I think we need to show off all these points in a quick, compact, and effective manner. It could start as a commercial with just some stock footage that we already have. Then we could go over and re-edit the video later if we have to. As long as we start with the audio we should be fine. We really should get the ball rolling and do this - it would be fun!
What do you all think? I'm not much of a producer.
