Michael Phelps goes fractional.

That is why his contracts are all one time endorsements and not multi year deals like Tiger.

As for the other side it is a whole new world. No regrets yet but only time will tell. Better money and better food at least!! Take care

I see your point and for the most part guess you are correct in that fact. He has had a speedo contract continually since before the last Olympics. I remember reading something about Speedo signing him to a five year deal. Olympic athletes do have the national championships and other gigs in between the four years. I guess Speedo thinks he will always be marketable to the swimming world. There is, however, only one Tiger.

Good to hear your enjoying the other side. Be careful with the better food. Unless you are doing better exercise also we might end up lubing the inside of the cockpit to get you to fit in a couple of years.:laugh:

Gold wouldn't set off a metal detector. They only detect ferrous metals.


Just sayin...

It's not a metal detector, it's a medal detector...

70% of NJA growth is word-of-mouth from current owners. This is a great "gimmic" but not exactly a mass-market ad. You're not going to see this on ABC anytime soon.

It's not meant to be a mass market ad. It is a viral campaign meant to promote brand awareness. It's not supposed to sell shares.

Those commercials are brutal. Would that even remotely make you interested in flying CS vs. the competition?

Great swimmer.....but Phelps is a total box of rocks.

The adds were not to sale the planes. People will see them and say what the hell was that company at the end. I will go look them up. This type of marketing has been around for years. You have have been exposed to it. But not always bought the product. Or even aware they stuck the little notion in your head about the company.

My head hurts just reading that.

That's a pretty good catch for CS given that Netjets has already snagged Tiger, Roger Federer and recently Tom Brady (without his cast). I know Jack Nicklaus has also been featured in CS ads. I hope we see some CS print ads in the WSJ with Michael Phelps as well.

Tom Brady has been with us for a few years. I flew him 2 years ago to training camp.

I agree. World record for typos!

Yeah. It should have read:

Thee adds wur knot too sale thee plains.

Don't you love English?
