RE: Yet another snafu by the same company
There always seems to be a disconnect between marketing departments and reality. The reality is R&D dreams it up and sends it over to production, who then in turn produces it, but marketing rarely gets a look at what they are hyping, they are normally going on the idea or concept which and can change by the time production gets a hold of it. I see this all to often in the business I am in.
Or they could just be flat trying to deceive the customer, which also has been known to happen in business.
Thanks for heads up on this.
Wow I never considered the first scenario, thank you for that. Hopefully policies arise out of this where they spend more time with production and review every device to bring out every feature without selling a dream for potential customers.
It happens, trust me, I see it with products that I sell. Not so much physical appearance of our products but performance capabilities and features. Marketing is always having to back pedal because certain aspects of the product are not enabled right from the get go when the products launch. Usually it involves the software not being fully vetted, which really takes time, I never like to sell a product on what the product will do in the future, for me it is what it will do today, tomorrow may never come when it comes to business.
