[quote=JJG;711143]man, there's so much negative feedback here, I'm starting to feel bad for ole' PJ. It seems the best thing people can say is "it's the cigar that matters, not the band" and I agree with that.

It's the American way isn't it? Build up a budding young star, then when they 'make it' tear them down and stomp on 'em. :|

Meh, not the greatest looking design, but that won't stop me from buying Cabaiguans. Plus, you can always just remove the band.:-)

Pete will be alright if he figures out theres only room for one "rockstar"
in the cigar industry. We already have Rocky.
[Reply]

I guess I would not consider Rocky Patel a "rockstar" kind of person. He just seems like the ultimate salesman. As for Pete, I would throw him into a person that has a "persona" about him, something many people would like. Is that persona considered a "rockstar"? Probably something along those lines.

nice try Pete Johnson. didn't know you were a member here, love your smokes!

From now on you'll need to poopp@l me all your money for smokes. Just send me tons of cash and I'll send a note to your B&M to give you stuff. Really, I'm sure it'll work out great! :-):-)

I want to thank everyone for all the feedback. Just an FYI, the above posts are not from me nor anyone from my company.

Yes the logo, I actually paid a veteran designer for Disney to do the logo. The logo is not for Tatuaje. Tatuaje already has two logos. The classic Tatuaje logo with the tobacco leaf/fleur design found on the cabinet boxes and the Tatuaje with the sideways fleurs on each side. Those are the logos and they will alway be. The logo you are seeing is just a company umbrella logo. All the brands will fall under this logo. You will see it somewhere on the packaging for all the brands to let people know we make that product.

I had always just used the Fleur as a company symbol but it's not like that fleur was anything unique. Every company uses a fleur and the one I used was simple enough to where everyone got used to it and associated my brands with it but a fleur is not unique.

Again this is just a company umbrella logo that will tie all the brands together. I am always willing to look at submissions but I am not looking to a logo for Tatuaje. It already has two.

Also, I am far from being any type of rockstar. I'm just happy to be doing something I love.

Thanks again for the honest feedback, I do give a damn what you guys think and hope to hear more from you. Hopefully better next time.

Regards,
Pete

I got to learn to not take a draw until I read the post.....coughed my a## off

Does that mean you don't have to change the old brown bands?
Sweet.:-)

Man, I want to bite into this like an 18 ounce New York Strip steak.

I will digress and keep my aggression to a minimum.

The "what I would say to Pete Johnson and the owner of New Havana Cigars (local to me)" if I ever had their attention ....after the drac incident.

You want honest feedback?

I'll give it to you if you really want it. Man to Man. Not in public.

....this coming from the cigar smoker known as Two-Face. :-)

s15driftking, I would love the honest feedback. Obviously you had a problem with the release or trying to get some from NHC. Sorry to hear that. I'll be in Columbus soon and would love to hear what you have to say.

Regards,
Pete

The ball is in your court now Bobby!

I believe that PM is most suitable. Warning, its very lengthy, very.


EDIT - Maximum PM is 5000 characters... my letter is 6323 characters. What is the best way to communicate?

And I am a man of action. I myself always take feedback and criticism as an opportunity to re-evaluate whatever situation is at hand.

I typed out what I'd like to say in MS word, but it won't fit in a PM.

Seeking alternate route.
[Reply]

Break it up into two pm's part 1 and part 2
[Reply]

I thought Pete was offering to meet you in-person when he was in Columbus.

Just me, but I know I would prefer to talk with him face-to-face if the opportunity presented itself.

Sorry if you got the impression that I was "butting" into your business, that was not my intent Bobby.
