Default Kassi Ashton - Harley Davidson new brand Ambassador.

"Country singer Kassi Ashton has released her new single "Black Motorcycle.”

Unveiled yesterday the song coincides with the announcement of Ashton’s partnership with Harley-Davidson as one of its new brand ambassadors. You can see video of the artist hanging out at the Harley-Davidson Museum with her father below. When it comes to the her love of motorcycles, Ashton said.




“I grew up on motorcycles and to me they’ve always felt like freedom mixed with a tiny bit of discipline. Part of what drew me to motorcycles, was not just that Dad always had one and Mom was always on the back of one – it was that when Dad would pick me up on the back of his motorcycle, it was this freeing moment to breathe.”

Not really my cup of tea but I wish her and Harley a productive partnership.

"Brand Ambassador"

What happened to just having a top notch product having it stand on its own merit?
Maybe I'm just a (n) (extra) grumpy old man today.

So what exactly does a company look like

That has completely abandon it core customer
Gutted its product line
Overpriced what little they do offer
Under powered / under performanced what little they do offer
Has no real plan / path to capture new customers
Is quickly getting out paced by the (american made) competition
Made it harder and expensive as hell to get parts
Is lead by a bunch of dolts
Has sold it soul to wall street

I wonder

"Brand ambassadors" - struggling companies are looking for desperate nobody's without no real passion for the product who hopes for a little glamor from the old glory. That's what "brand ambassador" sounds like to me

I actually find this song and the video of her much more interesting.

This is not country music though....sounds like an Amy Winehouse clone.
