Landing Page Replacement day!

Attention All,

Lend me your ears

I proclaim that Labor Day, 2008 be forever remembered as “Landing Page Replacement Day!” Put it in the history books…

A small step for GroupTable, a giant leap for our conversion rates.  Sorry Old landing page…you tried, but your timid and uninformative ways didn’t drive enough action.  The old must let go and move aside to make way for the new.  Also tell your friend “YouTube GroupTable Demo May edition” that we no longer need his services.   Landing pg V2 will be a good page…The New and Improved Landing page- The sugar and the spice, the plate of chicken wings with just right amount of hotsauce (That ones for Carl), the super sundae with rainbow sprinkles…I apologize where was I…Oh yeah

Effective 1:00 pm your contract is terminated and you will be replaced.  We don’t care where you go, but you gotta get the hell outta here.

Deepest sympathies…The job market is tough

As for you GTV2 Landing page…you’ve been training hard, now is the time to shine… Lace up your boots your up!

Old Landing Page

ps…Feel free to leave your comments for GroupTable’s old landing page or words of encouragement for Landing page V2

Visit  http://www.grouptable.com to see the replacement landing page…Book mark this post if it made you laugh
