We have bottled water, why not air? It's up to you to sell air and come up with a marketing gimmick that will work. So razzle and dazzle me with why people should buy your product....air.

Yes but make a new air invention that is mass produced that you can just use and go for everyday life and everyday people. Why would it benefit them and why should it be an everyday tool?

I was going to sell prims at my prim mine. I wonder how much people would actually pay for a prim. Starting quite cheap with a basic cube, and going up to a distinctly high price for the much rarer torus.
I think I'll do that now. I wonder how many people I'll get IMing me. "I bought a prim from your mine and it doesn't work!" "What do you mean, it doesn't work?" "It doesn't do anything!" "You can put it on top of other prims I suppose, or sit on it. It's a prim, what do you expect it to do? You're the one who paid for it!" "..." |

Yup - I can just picture people bellying up to the O2 bar with a "smoke" in one hand and a glass of "vodka" in the other. Quite a volitile combination should people get a little "confused" and it all sort of mixes all together...  . _____________________

hehe I missed the link. What can I say... I'm lazy today I know, I know, Simpsons did it already. I know it's not a new idea but think of how people buy bottled water and how much it sells. There are plenty of new ways to market air in a way that citizens will consume it like bottled water. That is the difference, not the concept itself. If everyone is in a lazy mood then don't bother. |
