Marketing Ideas


I've noticed that Audiogon has what appear to be sister sites such as Videogon for HT and Photogon for cameras and accessories. How about offering up some new ideas for websites that cater to collectors. Who knows, maybe it will give them some ideas. Or at least a good laugh. Such as -

Autogon - for car afficionados

By gon - for antiques

Dog gon - for pet paraphenalia

Gon fishin' - for the outdoorsman

Penta-gon - for military collectors

Remember to keep it in relatively good taste. ;o)
kinsekd
Musicgon for music reviews and albums/cds

Cablegon -- doesn't it feel sometimes they can support their own site

Beergon -- or is it Beergut?

Spousegon -- for those who just couldn't take it any more

Politiciangon -- for those who would like to buy or sell their own politicians ;-)
"Gon" fuzing - for those who don't get the Hi-Fi hoopla.
"Gon" fisson - for those looking for a good cheap power source
"Gon" fusion - for those looking for good, cheap, AND dangerous power source
"Gon" outtatown - Internet travel agency
All gon - remenants of website gon by the wayside due to the ebay monster. Luckily, Audiogon remains.

With great fishing season during the rain I feel I need to upgrade my cheap stock reel so idea of Gon fishin' is definitely great. Any ideas for a good inexpencive one within $50...$100?
How about "Long Gon" for those of us who spend too much time and money on Audiogon.

"Strip-o-Gon" for the enlightened discussion of gentlemen's clubs.

"Going, Going, Gon" for an auction watch service.

"Cong Gon" a place where Vietnam vets can reminiesce about their days of cooking C-rations over a flaming C-4 Claymore mine.

"F'n Gon" where people talk about crazy sh*t they just need to get off their chest.

I think we need some AudioGOONs here on Audiogon to drop an elbow down on the foreheads of all the deadbeat sellers and buyers that have ripped us off.
