How would I market the amiga to the business world. Well before
answering I really don't think it would be necessary in the begining,
ibm has a strong hold on that just by its name alone. Business is
not the only market out there, you have the home and entertainment market
if one could get a strong hold on this market it would be easier to
then try for the business market.
One thing to think about people like ibm because of the software written
for it not because of the computer. People as far as I can tell like the
amiga because of the computer itself if not why not just write the same
software for ibm and abandon the amiga altogether.
Answer- find a cheap and effective way to run ibm software on an amiga.
Marketing- The amiga can do what there systems can do quicker & with
multitasking, but they can't do what the amiga can do video & toaster.
How would I market the amiga-
1. nintendo and sega market blitz, priority number one to take over that
market period. Not only entertainment but educational, plays cd movies
and records, home finance manager etc..The same way ibm and mac first
went after the business market we'll go after the sega market.
2. business market- ibm compatible,toaster,mac,etc…show demonstration
to execs then offer system free to them for 6 months or a year so
they can see what it can do compared to the ibm. If it does good
word of mouth among execs should give it a good name. It's a start.
A prson familiar with the system will be there during the 6months or year
to make sure things go alright.
3. Same system offered to the schools across america with the same
6 months to a year program.
Number 2 & 3 are hard but #1 is very much possible and I don't see
sega crying for money.
One more thing..you know that wife you were talking about, well I dumped
her years ago. I feel great now. I heard she remarried to some guy named
alex baker and they're both doing crack, never at work but always on his
computer she always complains. I heard she buggs him so bad he was
always in a bad mood and was way negative always coming on the computer
network with a negative attitude while smoking his pipe while his
crack addict wife is out working 84 hours a week on the streets.
Alex sounds alot like Ali to me.
really really evil grin.
