GoDaddy Goes to Indy for Cheaper Ad Dollars

GoDaddy Goes to Indy for Cheaper Ad Dollars

This is clever..  advertise at alternative events/venues to save ad $ and get more bang for the buck.  Hats off to Bob Parsons.

Quote: "Bob Parsons, CEO and Founder of GoDaddy added, ”Danica’s passion is part of what makes her a great fit for Go Daddy. She’s hot. She’s edgy. She’s fast. She’s quintessential ‘GoDaddy-esque.’ Go Daddy Girl Candice Michelle and I are looking forward to cheering on Danica trackside.”

Girls, Cars and Domains..  This is a man who has his priorities straight. :)

  1. Hey, waittaminute, I’ve been into domains and girls longer than Bob has! :-)

    If I had Danica AND Sarah, and you offered me Mika for them, I’d accept the swap offer!

    Bob has been successful, in part, because he has been unrestrained in his marketing efforts. If GoDaddy was a public company early on, I have to wonder if they would have ever been this successful. What do you think?

    ***FS*** Probably not.. Public co’s don’t nurture the maverick CEO style.. That’s unfortunate.

    Although, I do have to ask, “Why Indy?” Then again, I guess living in Charlotte, you don’t think much goes on in the racing world outside of NASCAR :)

    ***FS*** Ha ha .. Indy is pretty big down here in the Caribbean.. the European contingent loves it. A local event with global reach.

    “Hats off to Bob” ? His company never ever made a profit. Loosing every month. They are hunting every possible cashflow to survive next month…

    ***FS*** Hats off to the advertising and our seemingly mutual appreciation of the things that mike life so beautiful. no comment on Godaddy’s operations or earnings cuz I have no insight, but I’m sure Bob is doing fine.
