I require all our executives to read it

There is no better publication that I am aware of that is so accurate and on top of any news and developments in our industry. I personally recommend it to many people that want to know and understand more about our industry. For the most part, shop-eat-surf.com gets the stories first. As a matter of fact, I require all the executives in our company to read it.

Executive Edition is a must have
Executive Edition is a must have

Before Shop-Eat-Surf, there were two sites I paid for premium content on. One is Surfline, the other is the Wall Street Journal. One is about all things surf, the other, the best business content site in the world. Shop-eat-surf is the intersection of those two worlds. Shop-Eat-Surf provides everything from coverage of events, people, brands and trends. However, beyond the Executive Edition "wall" is more meaty analysis and interpretation of financial statements, business models and brand philosophies; why certain brands and companies are succeeding, where others aren't. The Executive Edition is a must have read if the business of surf and action sports are on your radar screen.

The marketing scene in downtown HB

Neff turned to a Mr. T look
Neff turned to a Mr. T look alike who urged passerbys to buy Neff shirts at Jack's. Mr. T proved quite popular with the crowds.

I spent several hours in downtown Huntington Beach Friday afternoon to check out how industry brands were attempting to capture the attention of the masses.

 

Efforts ranged from banners on stores and restaurants and brand cars driving around, to Tilly’s rental of a temporary space just off Main Street where kids could play games to win prizes.

 

One brand even hired a Mr. T look alike to garner attention.

 

Above are some photos of the different brand efforts.
