RE: Mathews, BowTech ..........Need Webmasters!!
The new site should be in place in the next 2 weeks or less. If you folks knew what has taken place with BowTech in the past month and a half or so you'd better understand. They are trying to do alot of to catch up from the AMO Show two weeks ago. I know for fact they worked solid 12 hour days after the show to get caught up on (some) of the paper work. They set up a whole bunch of new dealers at the show and all that info has to go on the web site as well as alot of other information.
Unfortunatly some people can't wait on a web site to be updated and go buy other brands and thats fine but as far as internet sales go in my opinion is wrong. It causes way too many problems with companies and actually causes dealers to fight and battle and sometimes give up their dealership with certain companies. Internet sales puts a dealer on EVERY corner of every street (if the person has internet) and will buy a bow from 2000 miles away just to save $5.00 or $10.00 dollars. Where do such people go to shoot the bow they choose first? We all know and certainly suggest shooting a new bow before we buy right? So what do we do go to our local pro shop try their bows out and go home to buy one online? Sorry bad practice in my opinion. I guess I would compare it to an employer having to pay his help say $15.00 an hour but goes out every day to try to find a person to replace them for a little less, after this person gets hired for $14.00 an hour the employer looks for someone for $13.00 an hour. Where does it end? Bow companies are in business to make money just as we all are from our daily jobs. The policies and guidelines enforced by said bow companies are whats going to keep them around when they please the dealers they have and don't have pricing battles online. I'm not a pro shop owner, I'm just a factory worker and this makes sense to me. It just wouldn't be fair if my dealer wants $500.00 for a bow and the guy buys one online from a dealer in CA. to save $5.00
Anyway, The web site will be updated soon. Trust me it will be awesome....
