Just above my license plate on the vans I have the EO bumper sticker. For those of you that have never seen the bumper sticker it is an American flag in the background with the slogan – line1 “EXPEDITERS” line2 “WE GO TO KEEP YOU GOING”
and Line3 “
www.expeditersonline.com” in big white letters. An EO member invented this slogan in a contest EO had, and won the money!!! In the daylight it can be read from about 5 van lengths away and at night because of the light from my plate someone can read it from about 4.5 or 5 vans lengths away. By the way! If anyone would like a bumper sticker send Lawrence an email with you snail mail address at
[email protected] and ask him to send you one. The "BUYER'S GUIDE" is also available.
I know 90% of you that just read the above statement are wondering what that has to do with DDx2’s post? WELL HERE IT IS!!!!
I run a CB Radio and have it on about 85% of the time when I’m running. I jibber jabber all the time to everyone that will talk. I get ask on an average of at lest 5 times a trip what is that Expediters Online bumper sticker about? Is that the name of your Company? I repeat the concept of EO so often; my wife tells me I say it in my sleep! I need Jeff or Dave Nemo to make me a recording so I can auto-play it like the DOT plays their construction warnings.
Has there ever been a survey done and if so what are the numbers of Expediters that own computers on or off the road (in their trucks, or at their home). Jeff would be the man for this one!!! There are a lot of expediters that don’t know that EO even exists. There are the expediters that do know about it, and after they used the info they learned at EO, and became drivers for a company forget all about EO. Then there are those of us that will log onto EO 24/7! We are the ones that use EO, (not just the forum), as a tool in our businesses. The forum is a virtual coffee shop. The forum chat room is a place for drivers to go and shoot the breeze, while on a lay over or at home on a break. Like DDx2 said the posts are down and most of us regular posters are kind-of wondering why? One member said he thought it was because of all the bashing of some of the companies. Would anyone else care to fill us in on why you (if it applies) haven’t been posting? Maybe someone has an idea that may get others to start posting? If you don’t want to post it in the forum, maybe you can send Rich, Mark, Lawrence or myself an email.
I’m going to set up a poll for those that may want to reply anonymously. There will be 6 multiple choices to pick from. The more input we get the easier it will be to get the posts rolling again.
