Starise Posted May 19, 2020 Author Posted May 19, 2020 Interesting connections to Lynx. I had to imagine what it was like naming both products, " What shall we call this deodorant?" Marketing rep shrugs shoulders, " I dunno". "Have you ever smelled a Lynx?" "Well no I can't say that I have. Why? What does this have to do with eliminating smelly armpits from the earth or Lynx-es?" "What do we know of these creatures? " Pardon me Craig, my punctuation is probably off slightly. I hope yo can ignore it. I wasn't so good in English class. Assistant- "They are furry maybe more like a fuzzy kind of furry and they look like a big cat with pointy ears. They eat other wildlife, probably armpits and all." "Hmmmmm I like the sound of that name though." "Lynx eliminates the stinks". " You know what we should do?" " No oh great lard butt one what?" "I don't know , I'm asking you". "OH" "Let's call it Lynx. Sounds suave. Sort of like naming a car after a Jaguar only this is deodorant, we know that." " None really knows what a Lynx smells like, so we can't be sued for false advertisement." Atari Lynx. That's easy. You may call a video game anything you want to call it. Gameboy did a lot better at the time mainly because of the larger marketing budget.
