My 7 year old Mini Schnauzer Lola loves the PWC supercharged Seadoo.

She has her own Life Jacket ( Saiger Blue of course) and Doogles.  She has been riding since a pup.

This is her first ride this year as she had knee surgery this Spring and has been on strict kennel rest.  She is such a great pup!

And she will not let me ride alone until she is tired out a bit...







Then I finally had a chance to go play a bit while she took a rest on the deck in the sun....our Schnoodle was not to happy that she couldn't go today, but the wife will not be going on the PWC the rest of the year after her surgery, and no way I can take 2 dogs on the PWC at the same time

You like being on the edge don't you Mark? looks like your blood started flowing about the 2:37 mark.
What did you say, ' got a little light there?"

The Schnoodle actually had the bad fall last year.

This one is our other little girl and her knee surgery was due more to genetics in small dogs of this nature I was told. She just loves anything to do with the jetski. She is a character!

Yeah, I got a little out of control and almost lost it in a corner. This PWC does not corner like my race PWC's did.

They did improve the hull design about 5 years later, but I just haven't had the time to ride enough to warrant updating.

This is our Schnoodle that broke her foot last year.

Lola the PWC-Seadoo Mini Schnauzer 2014-05-26111051_zpse762c0b6

Last year she had broken foot and me with knee surgery.... (she also wasn't happy that I couldn't get her on the PWC as well yesterday....poor sad pup Sad )

This year, our mini Schnauzer with knee surgery and my wife just had major surgery last week (but no cancer!! woo, woo)

Hoping next year I don't have to work quite so hard to pay vet bills and medical bills.....LOL!

Sell that to your custys, how you use cleaning agents that are safe for people, their pets and the environment too.
If you see a new DfE logo with the silhouette of a pet in there, it will be cuz of me and my fight for you & your pets.

Our pets are important to us for sure and most everyone we work with feel the same.

We will find some people don't care as much as us, but it still matters to us.

Our animals have been a really big part of our advertising and branding package....as well as great company Smile

Our Grandson sure has been a hit too in our marketing.....LOL!

Here they are at our Spring Home show booth helping to raise funds for the local animal shelter....and meeting and greeting people.  They are very well socialized.

Full page ad for the home show (and I get a special deal on this once a year)

Our pets and family are important as you can probably see....and we spoil all of them terribly Smile

We use a lot of FREE advertising using Facebook and all this you see has been on our Facebook pages.

I hope you see, we work hard....but we also play hard.

The ads you see appear on Sundays in our local paper and a smaller ad with similar branding on Wednesdays. Our newspaper only prints 2 times a week.

Also, Facebook has been pretty good for keeping a "Buzz" going.

Our Wrapped vans are a big part of our "Traveling Billboards" and people say "they see us every where!"

We do NO direct mail, we do have a website that does well, but then again, we don't compete in Super huge markets (but do very well here)

We do radio ads especially when they live broadcast "out of Town" High School events.  We get great exposure with those.

We also have a big local parade coming up this next Sunday and we have the vans and jeep and trucks/trailer in the parade with BUBBLE MACHINES and MUSIC pumping out "Splish Splash I was takin a bath" and "Blue Suede Shoes" as we all wear blue tennis shoes.  

We really focus on the "Blue" Branding Theme to make us stand out. I actually had a local competitor (who's trucks are black) wrap his van just about identical to my vans.  That has not been a very popular moment around this town as everyone has been kind of talking about it and what a rip off!

We do a lot of variety....but....word of mouth from satisfied customers does get us a lot of business.

"Do good work and they will tell hundreds....do bad work and they will tell EVERYONE!"

No one magic bullet I would say...but keeping yourself out there.

Here are a few other pics...such as the parade from last year...WE have an absolute blast at this with our bubbles and handing out candy!

A lot of these pics are where we are lined up in the staging area by the way.... The first 2 pics are on the parade route....Look for the bubbles Smile

Also, take a look around my Facebook pages for other ideas if you wish Smile https://www.facebook.com/Saigers?ref_type=bookmark

Here is my personal Facebook page that I also do a lot of marketing on too. https://www.facebook.com/mark.saiger
