would love to see the duncan fearnley m4ttc sorry off topic

I had it at the time mate. It was my second bat after a GN500 4 scoop. I got rid of the Magnum in 1991 for a Dynadrive

oh sorry just after a df supreme sorry charlie


on the topic of stickers i think they look good mate as long as there top quality like what the reviews of your bat are i think your marketing is were you money should go but as i think one thing having a quality product and another marketing it right

[m4ttc]

The stickers are good quality, just lack some vivid colour like as suggested, hell4 and Piri

as a none owner i like the stickers i think there quite unique and there are to many stickers looking the same you know it a joker by the look.

[SillyShilly]

 perhaps a 'chester' cat to include on the joker bat ?

you know a joker when you pick it up.  Showed my mates today all who've been playing for 30 years and they loved it!

On your website, maybe you could list some of the young players you sponsor and have a profile about them e.g. Joe Bloggs U19 England and Sussex, represented England at recent U19 WC etc.

I like your stickers as they are but I think the option of having two different sets, one classy/simple and the other busier and more flashy would be original and really great.

Not sure on 2 sets of stickers, you're relatively new and personally I wouldn't fiddle with the brand identity yet. Go for the classy look, just do a unique shape on the stickers or something to get them looking a bit more funky/different.

My first thing would be website though, if you want my thoughts on it PM me.

The sticker option is similar to Warsop and Ayrtek I take it........

You could have both a red and black colour scheme for both bats but then have a Club, Spade, Diamond or Heart somewhere on the face of the bat then repeated on the back. However you can only have say a Black joker with a red Diamond or Heart. Then a red joker with either a black club or spade. Perhaps a half red half black grip with every bat?  I am a fan of pack of cards idea whoever came up with it

IMO - You shouldn't change the stickers, they stand out from anything else on the market very classy etc.

Softs are a good idea (as long as they are different).. not many brands have clothing gear.. Have a clothing line, wristbands, caps, etc..

Your softs should be classy to go with the over all image of the brand..

Our softs will make you agile like a cat..

[Mr Cricket]

to be honest tho (to everybody who is saying keep the stickers as they are) something must not be working if black cat are asking us how to improve their kit... somethings got to change and the image of a bat is the most important thing starting with the labels

[SillyShilly]

Dont agree with you on that one Mr.C - i think it's pretty refreshing for a company coming on here asking what is it that we (the customers) want, rather than us being told what we want. Matt at hell4leather did this before he went off to india to get his softs done, i think he took on board some of the ideas banded around on the forum and i think his softs are very impressive this year.

[Mr Cricket]

its cool asking what we want, but you have to ask why... its either because its not working as it is (low sales etc.) or just for a bit of fun, if it is the former then my suggestion would be a complete overhaul in branding and style as suggested

I disagree, when designing labels etc I think you have to forgot about personal preferences and design something that will appeal to the mass market, and seeing as we, the forum members, are a cross section of a bigger market, its a good idea to generate feedback from us
