Whenever I see deals like this, I wonder am I really that special?

My pic is crap but I think you get the point. Broken Oakleys - 8's being pushed further than any other sunglasses will go.
Cheers and thanks for the $$$.I think it would be a brilliant plan because his "moto" is about strength. Call out the competition on their shitty quality / durability. Offering an exchange program should grab people's attention even if they don't own a pair of the other top brands. Oakley, Wileyx, etc. Play your cards right and get some media coverage.FN fabulous idea. Any broken upmarket brand for that matter.
I've noticed Facebook ads have been performing more poorly. And there Reach is much more expensive.
Summer is approaching as well.I haven't done the research but I imagine more sunglasses sell in the warmer months. So hitting Australia/NZ now could work.I'd run with that idea in Australia/NZ, down south.
High purchasing power, lower CPCs, relatively less competitive market.
Sneak Peek.
VAPOR design (name may change, not sure yet)
Release date is summer 2016
Only showing a couple pics and color combos. These are NOT final. Few small changes are needed.
They look pretty cool when the arms are closed. I worked hard on the interlocking area.
The inside looks pretty cool too, I'll show a couple inside shots later on.
Cheers
So someone from this forum has copied my business identically.
I just came across an Ad on Instagram from one of the guys I do ads with.
this is the persons website http://www.striyker.com/
CHECK out there website, its remarkable how much of it they copied, even the 3 images at the top are shaped the same. wow
I dont know who the person is, but it's pretty obvious they copied me on everything.
And it has to have come from this thread. because there is just way to much stuff this person knows.
It's a shame I have to so this, but @MJ DeMarco can this thread be deleted? What can be done? I guess this is the chance I take when being so candid on my business. But Eight is becoming very successful, I feel that there is too much info in here for copycats.
I will start a new thread after which, and not be so candid with my business operations.
The person even called his shades F1 he even uses the same theme as me.
Some people have no class or imagination. Pathetic.
Now I know how @biophase felt when someone ripped his Soap biz.
This person even does Instagram advertising like me. They have copied me to a T
If the thread can't be deleted I understand.
Anyone know who this guy is???

I'm not too worried.
the best way to fight this crap, is to just be better.
Copying or mimicking business models and products will never stop, it is the nature of competition. There is so such thing as safety or stability in the market place, Kaizen, continuous improvement.
