Premium Cigar Consumer Behavior

[shortnub]

Some of you may remember the Cigar Sense survey that was posted here in June.

We have now results to share with you, which I hope you will find interesting: http://bit.ly/13dv856

Ah, while you are visiting us to read the post, you might want to extend your visit to some of the tasting sheets that we started to publish (journal/cigar analysis) based on a subset of the database we are creating. It's work in progress, but our alpha-test results are promising.

We would highly value your feedback! Thank you!

Interesting. What is the overall objective of your study, and what is the direction for your website?

 

[shortnub]

The study was to shape the services of Cigarsense.com, aiming to help premium cigar smokers to easily identify new cigars they will love.
Cigar Sense uses sophisticated proprietary technology to learn user personal preferences in fine cigars and then recommend new cigars that match them based on the evaluations of our blind-tasting panel.

The video on your home page explains it best. [video=youtube;FqMHxf_WnFs]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqMHxf_WnFs[/video]

A buddy and I were just talking about how a service like that would be ideal for both the noob and experienced smoker. Ill be watching your site to see how this all unfolds.

Thanks Zmilin for the support. We are working hard to build up our catalogue and get the site fully up and running soon.

I was just pointing out that if someone has something to say they should feel free to say it, whether it be deleted or not

This seems to have worked itself out.

"ckay" had a criticism that he / she wanted to level at me in response to my inquiring about shortnub's decision to promote their cigar-related business here (for free) while others pay to do the same..

I saw that my post and ckay's follow up (questioning my business information in my signature) were both deleted.

I've since pm'd ckay to answer his / her inquisition - directly.

If anyone got offended by my post, my apologies. Certainly wasn't the intention but rather the irony.

 

[shortnub]

So when I posted the survey in June, participants asked me to post the results. So I did, and I have asked for feedback on the website.
We are not ready to cash money yet. When we will, we will use legitimate channels for our ads.
And btw, today we made a donation, thanks for pointing this out, we were not aware that this was possible.

What great feedback and requests for contacts, even for partnerships! I am very thankful to this forum!
