second. I think it's a slippery slope if you allow commercial use of the forum.
I hear you
Dan and Nate (and everyone else),
Hang in there... solutions are bein' looked at...
OTOH, if "advertising" exists to bring in new customers, this "King Midas in Reverse" version of it probably will not impress the company owners, either.
Irony abounds!

Moderation
Those of use that are moderators need to use are powers to remove posts that are not appropriate for this site. A company posting on our site advertising their wares is not appropriate unless that company has been solicited to come to the site and help a member solve a problem with their boat. As a moderator I am not sure what kind rules that I need to follow, but I will remove or edit posts that are not appropriate for our site. Ryan

Just wanted to let others know that I am on-board with helping to keep the site clean of this type of unsolicited material. I was off-line almost all day (unusual) and couldn't believe the barrage of notifications when I finally signed on. I was quite happy to see Loren had jumped in with a response. I am sure we'll be working out a solution/approach to this type of activity.

Nice answer...
As a 20 year sales professional, Eriscon owner and a site participant that was (and still is) willing to cut a check to get us out on our own, this one hits home.
I agree with everyone else’s point of view. This is not the place for this kind of marketing effort.
Sara, If your reading this (a good sales person would be). As a "Solution Provider" I like your willingness to help. As a sales manager I like you ingenuity trying to find new customers.
As a business owner, you are wasting your time. I seriously doubt that any one of us will be purchasing enough plastic wood to make your commission check worth the time spent.
Trust me, the recreational marine market is a good place for your product but you are making silent enemies here and they are the worst kind of enemy for a sales person. Take a look at contacting boat OEMs If your product is good and your goal is to help, not sell, you will be successful.
It just shouldn’t be done here.
