I saw another add in the recent American Rifleman ... why are the models always being tasered?

I think that's supposed to be the "DNA". Kinda looks like his finger is smokin'. Don't want to comment on that.

Yes, it is supposed to be DNA!!

That is Eric, the CEO of Epicosity, our marketing company.

Actually that is not Eric............but a darn good lookalike! He fooled me!

PHILIPPINES, it's spelled PHILIPPINES

And even though it's a 3rd world country........we know what "marketing" is.

I've seen both the print and the TV spots and like them far more than the old campaign. These are what they call "institutional advertisements" meant to feature the company and it's philosophy more than specific products. As such, I think they do a pretty good job though how the rest of the campaign develops will determine the success of the concept. Getting Mike Seeklander and a broad representation of shooter-types into the consumer's mind would be helpful I think. It's a good start.
