ocuk ever thought getting out a bit more?

Have ocuk ever though of doing little trips to really big lan partys such as i series. i remember a few smaller competitors being setup at lans, have ocuk ever thought of doing this thought of thing.

they normally go down really well.. let people test hardware pkay with latest keyboards etc. let them test out on there own machine, then they can buy back.

would be a good idea imho?

Certainly a good way of promoting the company.

No it wouldn't OcUK have enough customer base, and the costs of sending people to LANs would be wasted, as you would have to send out staff on payroll and equip them with hardware.

You'd probably end up with a bunch of wasters having a play with no intention of buying anything, IMO.

This forum is as much promotion as a company of OCUK's size need really. It’s only if they want to gain a massive online presence they'll need any more.

it didnt seem to happen like that last year. you get a certain time to have a go with them. like 10 mins or so.

dont ocuk already have enough customers? last i heard they were over hauled with oreders and had to bring in more staff so i personally think that sending their staff to LANs would be a waste of money unless there thinkng of expanding the business (e.g buy another shop etc etc)

maybe they need to increase profitability first too! making money is fine..but profit is better
