DATEwise Promotional eCalendar Customized for Harley-Davidson Retailers

DATEwise Retailer-Identified Promotional eCalendar Offer

If you've ever distributed a branded pen, coffee mug, baseball cap, t-shirt, fridge magnet or
paper calendar in the real world and thought it was a good idea, it's now time to distribute
DATEwise in the electronic world because it's an even better idea. Here's why...

The DATEwise eCalendar & Personal Planner is a branded promotional item - a feature-rich software
program designed as a free downloadable gift. Once installed, DATEwise resides permanently on your
customer's computer screen. It guarantees constant awareness of your dealership name and all your
contact information - as well as offering the user several hotlinks directly to your web site and/or email
- no guessing, no searching, no hassle, no competition - just one click directly to you - instantly.

Here's a comment from Sandra McNair at Ron Kanerva's Shop in Lively, ON:
"Thanks Tony, you were great to work with.
We made a good decision for The Shop in getting the eCalendar."

This is a sample of the retailer-specific program download page as prepared for John Hubbard, Ottawa:

Here is your free DATEwise eCalendar compliments of
Freedom Harley-Davidson, your local Harley-Davidson Retailer

Freedom Harley-Davidson Information Page

This view shows the Freedom Harley-Davidson Information Page open. Within this page, the title, as well as selected images, graphics and text are actually hot-links to specific parts of Freedom's site. Check out the bikes, the accessories, and the MotorClothes®.

So, to see what's new at Freedom Harley-Davidson and Buell - that's after you've checked your DATEwise eCalendar to make sure you haven't missed any important appointments - just open this page and click on "Harley-Davidson" or wherever the pointer turns into a hand - that's a hotlink - or a "HOGlink"!

The DATEwise eCalendar can be downloaded directly to your computer's hard drive. Please feel free to pass the program along to family and friends - it's small enough to email!

Click here to download the full working program. It's quite small - about 1.6 meg in size - that's a

couple of minutes on a dial-up connection, a few seconds on high speed; when the download window appears choose "Open" or "Run" depending on the version of Windows you're using. The program will download and install automatically. You'll click "Next" four times, then "Finish". You'll find a new icon on your desktop from which your DATEwise eCalendar can be started.

We hope you'll enjoy this gift from Freedom Harley-Davidson - and please, spread the word!

We respect your privacy. DATEwise contains no "spyware" whatsoever;
no information is transmitted to or from DATEwise, nor is a "cookie" placed on your system.

Here comes the sales pitch...

At retail, the DATEwise program would sell for about $30. Therefore, as a customer gift, it has an exceptionally high perceived value, as well as a virtually universal appeal. In terms of reliability and freedom from technical difficulties, it is as solid as Harley-Davidson itself.

"But," you say, "if the calendar is perpetual and therefore doesn't need to be replaced, what happens when the new models arrive? Will my customers be stuck with the old model pictures in their eCalendars?"

Good question, glad you asked. One of the key features of the program is its ability to be updated as required. Certainly the new model year is an important occasion for an update, but there are others as well - moving your location, opening a new location, changes in contact information, major changes in content information - any number of changes might be required. As the owner of the eCalendar, you can request any changes any time.

"But," again you say, "what about all the information the customer has recorded and stored in the eCalendar - won't it be lost if the eCalendar is updated?"

And again, an excellent question. The answer is simple - no, none of the user's data will be lost. The eCalendar can be updated as many times as required with no loss of personal information.

How? Very simple: magic.

"O.K.," I hear you say, "it looks like a great deal to me - don't know how I ever got along without it, but let's get down to the short strokes: how much is it, what do I get,
what do I have to do?"

Short strokes, o.k.:

The price is $499 - a one-time investment.

Here's what you get for $499.00:

1. A Retailer-specific DATEwise eCalendar program that can be distributed in unlimited quantities in whatever format you wish for as long as you wish;
2. A customized web page from which your customers, family, friends and fellow HOG
members can download their copy of your eCalendar;
3. Permanent web page hosting on our server; if you prefer you can move the program
to your server.

You can also get an annual new-model eCalendar update - it's not free, but it's only $100.
At any time you can request a special update; the price will be based on the work required.

You have to do nothing more than agree to purchase the eCalendar, and pay for it.
From that point we will prepare your eCalendar using graphics and copy from your web site. We'll send you the "first draft" for your comments and suggestions. If any changes are required we'll complete them, post the page and program on our web server, and notify you that your program is ready to be released. We'll work with you or your web people to put a link on your site to the download page on ours. That's it.

The next dealer to order an eCalendar will be only the fourth Harley-Davidson retailer in the entire world to offer his or her customers this unique downloadable digital gift. Ottawa retailer John Hubbard has the distinction of being first - the first of many - and he ordered two!

Will you be next?

DATEwise - The Ultimate HOTlink - or is that "HOGlink"?
