Top 10 Reasons Converse Rocks The House, Y'All


As a little sidebar intro, so we admit that at first we were a little bit sweatin' it, wondering if we were gonna catch any heat from Verizon... you know, from our postings on their lack of environmental concern. However, thank our lucky stars, we came across this recent article available on Andy Beal's Marketing Pilgrim blog "New Survey: 55% of Companies Not Prepared for Online Reputation Crisis". Big sigh of relief. Moving on, we feel much better about posting rants, raves, or anything in between. Oh, and perhaps the occasional restaurant review for Cape Cod.

So without further ado, here are our Top 10 Reasons Why Converse Rocks The House, Y'all...

  1. check the sweet logo design
  2. they're an American company
  3. they bring back vintage in mad style
  4. they're in vogue every decade
  5. converse chucks
  6. their attention to detail
  7. their cool factor is off the charts
  8. they keep their advertising clean (***cough, Facebook, cough***)
  9. their sneakers look good with everything
  10. Target sells them

All this being said, we must admit that upon visiting the Converse web site, we might suggest a few minor tweaks for a better user experience: more obvious navigation, faster loading pages (suggestion: nix the song launching by default), and a more obvious way to turn volume down or off on "My Drive Thru". While the song is catchy and all, it's early here yet and I'm trying not to wake the neighbors. THANKS!

Happy 4th of July everyone!!!

Peace out,
