We are always looking for some feedback on our hammers, and now we're looking for some feedback on what we have recently said about our hammers and other products.

Feel free to click on the link below and let me know what you think. Would you have said or done anything differently? Good description of our hammers?

Thanks.

I haven't used your hammers yet to verify their quality but that ad doesnt seem too bad. Straight to the point, short, and doesnt have some hippy trying to sell me something.

Been a while Richard! The only line that I kind of feel is meh is "is so durable it lasts and incredibly long time." Bit cheesy I would almost say, but I'm not very good at advertising.

I like it! Just enough to get a guy interested enough to Google Trusty-Cook, but not so much that the guy gets bored of the ad and clicks another link forgetting about yours entirely. All you need is just enough push to get people to go to your website, but not so much push it shoves them the opposite direction. And I think you nailed it!

Use your hammers every day, and never even knew about them at all until I joined Garage Journal and ordered some for myself. So it definitely is time for you folks to get the word out there!

^^^ I second this ^^^

Wouldn’t know about your products without this forum. Now I’m hooked

The animation may be a bit reminiscent of the Duluth style but at least there’s nobody in their underwear. [emoji16]

Overall impression - I like it.

Second on mentioning the sizes and i am alway interested in what the warranty is. Say how long your company has been in business. Better picture of the hammer

Thanks for the feedback everybody. It's our first video in years, and we haven't had too many views of it, yet. We had 30 seconds to get a message across and had to keep the advertising company from using some variation of crazy every other word.

I still think our best video was done by firworks.

i liked it, good animation, informative enough for the video length, and its a nice change from a lot of brand videos that force in the gravelly Sam Elliott type voice over some cheap rock music and video snippets of sparks, fire or guys in slow motion throwing things in the back of a truck.

I always like seeing demonstrations in advertisements. My Harbor Freight hammer got real chewed up trying to remove a rusty rotor from a grand cherokee. It still works but it lost a few chunks of material and the face of the hammer is all cut up now. That's when I ordered 5 Trusty Cook hammers since I've read they're supposed to resist chipping/cutting on sharp surfaces.
