Re: [IRCA] HD Radios - snap them up!!

["W. Curt Deegan" <WWWR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Let me explain.

Rebate coupons are a form of consumer satisfaction survey.  By counting the 
number of coupons that are not returned, compared to the number that could 
have been returned -- a complex statistical process that involves marketing 
concepts like WTF (wishful thinking factors) and SNAFU (sales numbers after 
failing utterly)  -- marketeers [sic] can measure the joy with which their 
product has been received.  So appreciative are the customers they wish no 
rebate, instead they wonder where they might send more money.

To simplify it for the layman: the fewer the rebate coupons returned, the 
better everything is going.  Don't'cha know.

And of course, as Sir Z. has so astutely observed, the need for the rebate 
coupons is not to boost sales, rather strictly for market research to plan 
the next big success...story.
