SOD: Carlsbad Confidential... A daring foray into the world of "insider blogs"
"We are employees of TaylorMade-adidas Golf company."
That's how the About page on CarlsbadConfidential.com begins, and thus a revealing and entertaining blog from an insider's perspective is born.
While there is an emerging trend by corporations to use "sanitized & sanctioned" blogs as consumer communications tools, Jason and KVK from Carlsbad Confidential are going "indie" on this one. Which for us means a true behind the scenes look at one of the world's biggest players in the golf equipment and apparel market.
"This blog is a place where we can put stuff that the lawyers won't let us put on the official sites (tm max aG). You know, the stuff we want to vent or rant about, or that isn't allowed to be out "officially."
I love the concept and hope the guys can balance sharing their experiences with us while not pissing off their bosses.
So far, the tone of this blog is one of employees who actually have a passion for their industry and their company, and if anything, this endeavor should be looked upon as a benefit for TMaG.
I know i'll feel a little better shelling out $500 for a driver if I know that the people on the inside really believe it is the best in the world.
Visit their site, enjoy the stories and hope that they keep it going a very long time... I know i'll be checking in daily... Nice work boys!
