I am going to keep this rather bland, but open it up for good dialogue amongst THPers. To give you an idea of what I am speaking of, let's look at a couple of companies. We will call them Company A and Company B, but truthfully it's a great conversation for many companies and while I am keeping names out of the examples, they are absolutely allowed to be discussed.
Company A produces a solid product, bold in nature and is getting rave reviews. Due to some light marketing, minor use on tour, the perception is that the company is doing extremely well and drivers are flying off the shelf. Yet the reality in this example is that the company has stayed rather stagnant in sales.
Company B also produces a solid product, very vocal about their whereabouts in terms of sales and even using it in their marketing at times. They get heavy use on tour and the perception is that the company is continuing to build on it's incredible platform. The reality is that in this example, the company has failed to deliver on their own goals by a large margin.
So while these are just examples, with no rhyme or reason behind them, these exist in some form or another. Companies that get major buzz behind marketing, the internet, message boards, etc and then for some reason or another (this is not about the equipment necessarily) fail to deliver on those lofty goals. Not sure where this will lead, but I thought it would be a great conversation about perception vs reality in terms of the business side of the game.
