    E-Mail Correspondence from Argos

    Has anyone else not received any e-mail correspondence from the Argos in some time? The last thing I have from them is from January 7.

    I got one yesterday inviting to 2 exclusive events

    1) Chat with Popp and Chambin Feb 15 @ 6:30 BMO Field
    2) Family Day Marlies Ticket Offer Fe 18 @ 3:00 Scotiabank Arena.

    Wish this came in a week or so earlier. Already made plans for Family Day.

    Did anyone else get this or going to either one?

    I haven't received anything since my season ticket payment confirmation in early December. Checked my Junk Folder too.

    I got family day tickets originally when I was screwed by the ticket rep on my seats so good to know that it meant nothing to them essentially

    Nothing I think they have targeted campaigns vs offers that go to all. MLSE does same with TFC.

    received the offers re: Marlies tickets and the meet and greet with Popp and Chamblin yesterday. Agree with the earlier comment that these seem a little late. Not overly interested in seeing the Marlies and am already preoccupied on Friday - such is life. Feel that someone on this forum can and will provide a more insightful summary of the Friday event that I would have deciphered myself anyways.

    Agreed I got the email about the events this weekend and was wondering why send it so late. If I had more time, I would have attended the session with coach and GM. Bad planning it seems.

    I would have been interested in receiving these emails, which I did not. And I have not received anything from the Argos in some time, either.

    Just to clarify.

    I asked someone here about the event invitations. They were sent out on Tuesday to coincide with Free Agency day to piggyback on the excitement of the week.

    Sorry if that didn't work for everyone. Hopefully we can see you at other off-season gatherings.

    How did they choose who the invitations went out to?

    Must have been a lottery. I to received nada, nope and zilch.

    I could ask some questions to Jim and Corey if I were there. Some they won't want to answer I'm sure.

    1) To Jim: Were you using the current salary cap or the new projected one with the offer to Bo Levi Mitchell.

    2) To Corey & Jim: James Franklin has been named the starting QB. What happens if Ricky Ray says he wants to play another year.

    3) To Corey: Have you ever give any thought of playing Dylan Wynn at DE (if he re-signs)

    4) To Jim & Corey: What are your thoughts on Matt Betts out of Laval.

    5) To Jim: Is there going to be a draft of the European players after the combine.

    the MLSE beat goes on. no notice for some little notice for others. no consistency or regard for STHs. the mere fact that threads like this have to be created and nature of responses is canary in coal mine for me.

    the guy that tried to get me to renew kept telling me they inherited a bad situation and were working to improve things and to keep an eye out because i “would see it”. well sending out a invite to event 3 days in advance of a long weekend and demanding rsvp within 12 hours just seems poorly planned and worse yet carelessly executed.

    Nada. With a 12 RSVP window it sounds limited the venue has limited room.

    A straw of the hardcore fans here appears to be a 20-25% offer ratio.

    Matthew. I responded to you personally. I don't know why you posted this publicly without answering my reply. I went to one of the organizers of the event on your behalf. I offered an explanation, an apology that it didn't work out for you this time, and a personal invitation to the next Town Hall for both you and a friend of yours.

    I also asked what we could do to encourage you to renew.

    If that's poor customer service I'm not quite sure what I'm missing.

    Cheers.

    Mike

    Ah, that's ok. I'm willing to wait until the next town hall. Argos have had some nice pre-season events the last couple of years. No complaints from me. I was just curious.

    Pretty disappointing. They’re is nothing more frustrating in business than to hold a client event which alienated 75-80% of your client base and disappoints a good number of the rest because they can’t accommodate a late invite.

    Apparently nothing has changed in the non-football side of the Argos. I’m thankful that football operations is still runs in a professional manner.
