Brooklynite Almighty

Of course it is a great stick......because you shamelessly attempt to promote your company on here before you are even a contributing member of the community.

As I mentioned before, you will NEVER get any credibility on here by doing nothing but trying to peddle your little company. There are a number of reps on here, as well as owners of companies in the hockey industry on MSH and you NEVER see them attempt to pull the BS that you are doing on here. Simply classless.

I really dont understand why people are ripping brooklynite. Im personally not a fan of the looks of the product, but maybe it is good. I give Joe credit for trying to start his own company. New companies are always good even if they dont pan out in the end.

Your correct Chadd, when you guys ripped me apart last time. I was so upset, but I changed my whole site. I am new to this. I am learning quickly. I want the criticism trust me. It helped me last time.

Can anyone admit my site looks nice now. You guys helped do that. You drove me to create that.

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

Honestly, it was a conversation between him and me. You then tried to find out through an Assistant Mod about the situation.

Those who know me know that I don't go on my word. Despite everything that has happened, I never denied a window for him to have his stick reviewed on MSH.

Drew, I want your stick hook up! JR, it wasn't a shot at you whatsoever. It was my honest understanding of what happened.

How many of you or members of your family own a small business and stake their livelihood on its success or failure? Would you want people reacting to your mother and father's business this way? If you took out a second mortgage to open up the company of your dreams, would you want everyone to hope for your demise? Or would you prefer people to be understanding of all you're sacrificing so even if you come off poor initially, they'll be willing to forgive you just this once? I have to say shame on you all for behaving this way.

I wouldn't come somewhere, act like this, and then try to solicit free business advice. But maybe that is just me. Its pretty funny how quickly you've turned on MSH when the prospect of getting something for free comes about yet stick around to sell your sticks.

Looks better, although your advertising is stooping to Warrior levels of sex.

Are your Sakic, Drury, and Forsberg clones going to be offered in the same lies that easton makes them? I know you already have the 1st batches being made up, but maybe you should consider offering them in different lies when/if your company takes off. Obviously that would be hard to do considering that you dont have the financial backing that say, NBH or Easton does, but I know im not the only person that would be all over a 5.5 lie Forsberg clone.

edit: 12 posts in the time it took me to type that. wow

Hence the reason the ad was pulled from USA Hockey Magazine.

Good lord he just doesnt listen.

I hate to say this, but you are WAY to emotionally invested in your business. I have seen this too many times....the irrational and hyper-positive attitude. I see it in Multi-Level-Marketing scams. Dreams that are chased to the neglect of all logic and common sense.

I take zero pleasure n saying this, but......

After reading your posts, I am afraid that your business is doomed, no matter what the quality of your product is.

I am truly sorry.

[Chadd 916]

JR, it wasn't a shot at you whatsoever. It was my honest understanding of what happened.

And that's why you shouldn't comment on things that you don't know about or hear third hand.

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

Eric - let it go man.

[eric42434224 1]

Again, I must tell you that preaching the praises of your stick here, before any review, is only hurting your business. Logic, not passion, needs to guide your business decisions. Stop talking about your trials and tribulations of your start-up....it is turning the people (your future prospective customers) off. Please, Please, for your sake, stop posting.

Send the stick, and use the feedback productively.

Why do you feel the need to tell him what to do? If he wants to post, he can no matter how much it upsets you.

Jesus......chill.

I was simply stating some very constructive criticism on how he can salvage this marketing train wreck.

I am allowed to say what I think, and I dont think it was taken as any type of order. Just my opinion.

cant we all just get along?

[BrooklyniteAlmighty 0]

Whbd, what type of look do you like. More traditional? Look at the redeemer on my forum I love that model, That I feel is the nicest looking by far.

Also guys remember the green and purple almighty, The yellow redeemer, the orange and light blue d force. I listened to you guys and it helped. I just couldn't take the abuse. I am now learning to handle it the right way.

I know no one cares but I put in 18 hour days. If you PM me on the forum I am still working at 4 am. Then I have to get up at 9 and go to my regular job. My comment about me building this company until I succeed or drop dead can come true if I don't slow down.

I just have a fire burning guys, I am sick and tired of accepting normalcy. I am sick and tired of not trying and dreaming about it. I promise you will see this company grow. I am not saying this to be cocky or say I am the best. I just will work as hard as I can to achieve my goal.

[eric42434224 1]

Eric - let it go man.

Not a problem. I feel for the guy...I really do. Seen it a thousand times.

Just trying to say what needs to be said to the guy to help him out.

So, I said it, and I will only lurk now.

Now Im lighting up, sitting back with the NHL network on, and getting some popcorn,....and watching the show :)

[Wolfpack_1986 154]

I dont need to hear, negativity. It is a quality product. I know it is. It costs allot of money to produce.

Costing a lot of money does not equate to being quality, it equates to being expensive.

[BrooklyniteAlmighty 0]

Eric keep going, My 18 wheeler needs gas. Guys I am not offended, Eric can have his opinion. He is entitled and thats what keeps me going. I have heard allot worse.

[gxc999 7]

Just to be clear, I'm getting nothing for my work. No money, no free sticks, nada. As for what his ad was, it included two women, each wearing a dress, looking up at the Almighty coming down from the heavens. This is sex? So anything with a female in it is sexual? Give me a break, really. I will not allow people to sit here and bs like that.

SPAM DELETED

This is appealing to mans carnal nature? Are you a 15th century puritan? Give me a break!!

[ronnychencharik 0]

looks like those girls need a 12-13" glove instead.

[Gummer12 134]

That's NOT what got pulled from USA Hockey Mag

I have to say shame on you all for behaving this way.

I actually had both of my parents that owned their own businesses, both family run, family started. They have done all the things you said, taking out second mortgages, workign the long hours, all the sacrifices, and they have never ever taken business criticsms personally. My father started a wholesale model business and has spent years building it, hes had many many doors slammed in his face and been screamed at by customers countless times, had to fire friends, made bad decisions that cost him and us a lot of money at times. His reaction is alway the same - Its just business. At the end of the day he built a very successful company that he has recently sold. The lesson is - you can not let your personal feelings get in the way of your professional life, if you do, your toast.

[Wolfpack_1986 154]

lol that one girl has racoon eyes from the spray tan. I bet they're quality models because they cost "allot" of money

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

Why couldn't it be two male hockey players? Would it have the same effect?

[BrooklyniteAlmighty 0]

Puck it your right......I could of spent allot of money to make junk, I spent a year and a half doing this. I tested over 12 different factorys and materials. I am confident it will be very good. Anyone who saw it, loved it. We have preorders. I went to a tournament with the stick and they loved it.

I have been involved in hockey for over 20 years. I am not saying I am a know it all, but I know this is a very good product.

Congrats to you and your family! I agree with you completely but on the other hand, people eventually get fed up with everyone burying them before they have even half the information necessary to make a reasonable decision. I'm getting Jack Squat for free, so why do I make such an effort? Because I know how committed Joe is and would like to see the little guy succeed for once, and maybe even beat the big boys at their own game.
