Videos and posts are so cringy. Proving you can’t go back. They aren’t funny and seem manufactured. This is just sad. OG was so much better. This is typical out of touch attempt by an inept SLT with Marketing being the only laughable thing about this debacle launch. Another waste of money to resuscitate this nightmare of a company. Keep laying off but start at the very top.

Do something you are actually a PRO at. Layoff EB. This campaign stinks and you have now tarnished a once great campaign to a bad joke.
@2hv the one today is laughable and not in a good way. Whoever is in charge of social media please stop you are now embarrassing yourself. These aren’t humorous and you get less than a handful of comments and very few likes. Really pathetic and I feel ashamed being part of this company or campaign.
Your linked in postings get less than a handful of likes. They are so vanilla and not remotely humorous. You have destroyed a once great brand, a once great logo and destroying a once great easy button with this ridiculous EB reboot is just embarrassing and disgraceful to a once great campaign. Just stop that would be easy! How bout a layoff for EB around November with the next round. He is tired and didn’t want to come back to this shell of a company with no heart and no soul and that’s what these EB skits or post sound like. It really is the worst.
They’re going for the Gen Z marketing archetype but don’t realize we haven’t been relevant for quite some time. Trying to be like the Duolingo bird but failing.
Im sorry but there is no way in he-l i am paying my own money to mail out these easy buttons to customers. With that Bst they call a merit raise of 1% they can shove it right up their TIGHT A**S . Absolutely ridiculous that they could not provide us with postage or we just provide them with the names and they do it themselves but no to freaking lazy. Everything they say is scripted anyways so why should this be any different.
@a6 Do you mean this coming Wednesday? And is your source usually correct?
Please stop with the podcast ones they are the worst. Seriously spend some money on someone who can write jokes or just stop. This is now degrading the original campaign so no one will remember it fondly. They are very bad. No one commenting or celebrating these for a reason. They are not resonating. Embarrassing. Why would I think you could bring it back. Staples SLT really is completely clueless and inept. Can’t even bring a winning campaign back without messing it up.
When you are out of any real ideas that can move the numbers, sadly, desperation kicks in.
Get your popcorn ready for next Wednesday.
