Aloha Gang,
We are getting ready to take Ocean paddler TV to the next level and I need your help. Would you all mind sending me via email some answers to some marketing questions for our demographics?
1 - Age
2 - sex - no funny stuff - male or female!!
3 - Type of job, how long.
4 - How often do you paddle?
5 - Part of the country you live.
6- Household Income range - I dont need a true figure, just a range.
7- Other type of sports you watch and participate in.
8- Education
9- This would be a great time to also tell us what you would like to see on ocean paddler tv for 2009.
10 - Do you belong to a club?
11- Anyone else in your household that paddles?
12 - Do you travel to paddle?
Please help me out and email to my work email address - terry@oceanpaddler.tv. If it will make you feel more comfortable, you can go to our web-site and fill out a survey there.
promise, everything will be kept in house, you wont get any bullshit emails, we dont sell our info etc etc. What we are trying to do is be able to show our advertisers who is watching to help better to target market.
Mahalo nui, I really appreciate this.
Terry

Terry, where is the survey located on your website? I went to complete it for you, but could not locate the survey link.
Mahalo for all you do to promote this sport.

terry,
suggestion: the order of questions you posted here and what you posted on your website is different. you might want to make it match... i sent you a completed survey by email but in the order listed on your website (i only wrote in answers, not questions- figured it'll be easier to extract data that way)... you might be getting surveys in various formats.
up to you- depends on how much work you want to do on the back end.
eckhart, that's very cool- learned something new

Just a quick email to say a big Mahalo to all of you who sent me the surveys. I got hundreds of them and are now sorting all the information. I really apprecaite the wonderful feedback on the show. In these uncertain times, stuff like that keeps us motivated. I ask that you remember our advertsiers when you want to buy a new one man, car, clothes, paddling gear etc etc...You can visit our web-site and check out who our sponsors are. www.oceanpaddler.tv Without them, there would be no ocean paddler TV.
Mahalo nui again gang. Ocean paddler TV is for you and I hope we continue to make you proud.

Terry, any news on providing your episodes for sale on DVD format? For those of us not in Hawaii, there is just no comparison to seeing the TV version versus what is available on line. We are trying to create interest in outrigger paddling here, among school and youth groups particularly, and showing them a DVD of your some of your episodes would rock! Thanks!

Kayakneil - You can watch the full episodes on line at www.oceanpaddler.tv..You can also download a ton of videos for free.
You can go to www.molokaihoe.org and order the dvd of the na wahine and molokai hoe races.
Hope this helps.
