King800[888] - Attention to detail...

King800I was doing some research today to work on some sponsor agreements with the energy drink [in a tall boy] - King888.  When i went to their site, to find some contact info, I saw that they had blown it on their phone number.  Wouldnt it make sense to have your toll-free number start with '888' if its in your name?  Maybe something like:  888-THE-KING or something.  Theirs on the other hand starts with '800'. Booo.

Kind of pointless post I guess, just a lapse in attention to detail. IMHO.

While I am on a rant...here are some things that I am tired of hearing about:

  • What Reno's gonna "become next"
  • Paris, Nicole, Britney, Lindsay, etc.
  • Not one, but 2, Karaoke based TV shows
  • Energy drinks based on a Thesaurus look up and every variation [spelling] for the word: EXTREME [enough already with energy drinks]

That's all.  King888 - call me...

Comments & Feedback

Hey just read your post about the toll free number. Why don't they have 888-THE-KING as the toll-free number? Good question and good idea. I'm gonna ask the guys why they didn't think of it and suggest the change. If it goes over well I'm sending you a free case!!!!!!!!



thanks craig...hopefully they dont mind the subtle jab. we really are trying to reach them for one of our clients. :-)
