Geico Claims to be Incompetent Lacking Customer Satisfaction Abilities
Well, my title is not me making stuff up, if you watch the commercial I'm referring to, you will clearly see this is from the horse's mouth just in illustration form. Please watch the commercial before reading the rest of this page. Some might think the messages I've pointed out are subliminal inside of their commercial, but to me it was just obvious. Let's start with the Elmer Fudd in Geico Commercial for example:
Now that you've seen the commercial again (or for some of you the
first time) let me point out the obvious. They could not for whatever
reason help not even a cartoon correctly say the letter r. And they
tried how many times? Right. So that right there shows how they lack
the ability to solve problems no matter their many attempts to try. And
this is a cartoon folks, something they had animated for their
commercial. Sad! If they can't so much as solve the problem for Elmer
(something they have total control over), then how can you trust they
can help you solve your insurance issues? Sad!
Next obvious message: Elmer Fudd walked off the screen upset and unhappy
with their help (service). Again, keeping in mind this is a CARTOON
(something
they have total control over), what does that say about Geico? If they
can't even so much as satisfy and make happy a cartoon character (that
they animated to fit their commercial), then how can you trust they can
help satisfy you and solve your insurance problem? Does this message
help you trust them? Because as seen in the commercial, what does Elmer
Fudd do in the end? Exactly. So basically, Geico is saying they cannot
be trusted to solve problems even if they have the power to change that
problem (they could have easily animated Elmer in such a way to correct
his r, but they didn't). And as a result of their incompetence,
potential customers end up walking away. Like I did in my mind when I
first saw this commercial.
It's like what is the point of the
commercial
if you're not going to show that the solution you provide is satisfying
to the customer? Geico cannot solve a CARTOON'S problem and
yes it
is this very commercial they produced that shows their inability to
solve problems. It's like Geico is outright telling the public (their
potential customers), "Do like Elmer Fudd and walk away from us." But
will you do as they illustrate for you to do?
I don't know if Geico realizes just how damaging their commercials are
for their own revenue. Maybe this is some type of reverse psychology
attempt to get you to pay
them your money. I don't know. But can they be trusted at this point?
I know this commercial does not prompt me to call them and give them a
shot. As a matter of fact, just the opposite. But they are right in that
Geico can save you money if you do as they
animated Elmer Fudd to do (walk away). So
thanks Geico for showing your true colors to the world! Thanks for
saving me money by not giving you my money. haha.
And their messages don't stop with just this commercial. Shortly, I'll
be posting the obvious messages
in their other commercials with the tall guy and after that the fiddle
player. If you choose to go with Geico anyway and they end up messing
you up, well you can't say Elmer Fudd didn't try to warn you. He (in
essence Geico) would be the first to tell you, "I told
you so."
The funny thing about all this is I, personally,
have nothing against
Geico. Their commercials were just something my sister and I were
joking about. And I decided to talk about them on here. Things that make
you go hmmmm... Well, it's your choice what you do. Doesn't matter to
me. After all, it's YOUR money.
