Marketing: Are we ok, or do we need help?

Wow Frank. I think I'm sold. Got some folks who'd love that kind of thing. Give me a call. You might get a little further inland.

Better yet, why don't I just come to Omaha?

I have been reading this thread for a while and a question comes to mind to those of you operating in Florida and Colorado. What is FADO and their Colorado counter part doing to increase business in the scuba industry?

Couldn't find a FADO website, Colorado has a Scuba Retailers Association....

 

[The Chairman]

KADO=> FADO=> PADO Professional Association of Dive Operators

Keys=> Florida=> Professional I hear of them from time to time, but I've never seen anything they've done.

 

[Wookie]

KADO does exist, they are headquartered at Dive Key West.....

 

[The Chairman]

I think they're all related. I could be wrong.

 

[Wookie]

PADO seems to have 5 member shops and are heavily involved in sponsoring the Scuba Olympics. Their last blog entry was 2010. Not too much activity there. FADO has a blurb on DiveNewswire in 2009 telling us what they were doing for their members. Their website is a 404. KADO has a mission statement and some members, but there is no news on the website, and the copyright date is 2005.

What I said was, we need new blood in the dive industry...
