RE:RE:Mike Holmes blog
RE:RE:Mike Holmes blogA couple of things in response to your post:
- Mike Holmes is quite well known and is involved with a number of well known and widely watched home renovation shows on television and actually has quite a good reputation from what I am aware of.
- ECOhome (the retail product) is relatively new to the market and hasn't been submitted to much in the way of mass advertising yet - other than Holmes
- there are substantial costs involved in the mass retail advertising your are referring to - that may come, but the funds are really there for it at present, as far as I can tell.
- As for the consumer markets where you are seeing the commercial products being sold - the answer to your question about isn't BC good enough - the simple asnwer is that BC is actually not the best market for the product:
- our hydro electric costs are among some of the lowest in the world
- our use of AC is appreciably lower than the regions you are seeing the product gain more traction in
- we do not have the market penetration for Heat Pumps that exists in other parts of the world where the applicability may be heating rather than cooling.
I personally believe in a different business development model than management is employing, but you are still off base in the specifics of your original criticism.
Just some thoughts.
