Larry - How about a new discount for newlyweds?

[bversteegh]

My baby is getting married this January, and has taken her daddies offer from years ago that if she had a small wedding, I'd give her the money saved for a wedding present. I had pretty much forgotten the discussion, but she remembered. So they are having a small family only ceremony in Hawaii

Obviously, the honeymoon will involve some diving; and her fiance is newly certified with no equipment yet (my daughter's gear needs some updating also)... So I am recommending another way to decrease your margins (but 2 new customers isn't all bad); while helping out a loyal customer in a time of need (may be a small ceremony, but Hawaii isn't cheap) - How about a special newlywed discount? Get-em hooked early - new customers for life

Hey, when I go on my honeymoon, how about a free trip for two on a liveaboard or another tropical vacation. You know, since I am a loyal customer

Newlywed shmewlywed..... Gettin' married is easy, how about those of us who have put up with........ahem... Have been happily married for more than a decade..We deserve the discount. Kind of a lifetime achievement award or something..

how about one for those of us who are newly divorced?

we lost half of our income!

if both ex's remain loyal customers & get in new relationships with other divers you can multiple your business that way.

I'll second the newlywed discount. We both dive and are getting married September 13. After paying for the wedding, it's been hard to find extra money to spend on diving...Congrats to your daughter. She's smart for remembering the conversation.

No second here.... use some of that wedding money that they get! My sister TOTALLY made out on her wedding... the rest of us NADA... guess that's the price for staying single!

I say you get a 10% discount. You choose the reason.

Sounds good to me!

And as far as the discount for divorce... You know why divorces cost so much right?

Because they're worth it!

You're a girl, how come you didn't end up with your fair 9/10th of everything?
