New "sure we've made mistakes" Rogers ad

Postby Tenax » Sat Nov 22, 2014 5:49 pm

As a former Rogers radio employee I had to chuckle when I saw this ad. Some marketing guru read to the heart of the issue with Rogers all along in my opinion. Tech rich company with ongoing bad customer service (internal and external). The only thing that would make the ad better is if they directly apologized to all the customers and former employees they've f''ed over:)

Ps-I also chuckled at the style. Basically sure we've made mistakes but look at all the cool stuff we've done. I note they stayed away rom the topic of hockey though:)

YUP...seen it. Thought it was a different and good idea. Will it be accepted from John Q Public? That's a bit of a gamble because of the past of Rogers. BTW Saskatoon boy Kim Coates voiced it.

The words ring hollow to me. The company is even more devoid of humanity with regards to employees. But then again i'm sure its directed at customers..especially cell phone users. Interesting about the kim coates connection.

Even words that begin by being written with sincerity, sound hollow after they've been through four levels of spindoctors and an equal number of legal beagles.
