Sabotaging V30?

[Ry]

Or, LG is not paying them enough money for better exposure.

Winner winner.

 

[SupraLB]

So do you think Google is paying Verizon, or is Verizon paying Google? Lol

Definitely. There's a massive multi-corporation conspiracy to destroy LG. Wal-Mart, Target, and Toys R Us are in on it too. Didn't you read the article in Newsweek?

Where is this article? I'd like to read about it. Never heard that this is going on.

I visited a local Verizon corp store and the V30 was hidden in the very back with zero fanfare. I had to ask a rep if they had them on display. The phone was set to Spanish language, as well...

Contrast that to the large Pixel display that had all the 1st Gen Pixels on display right when you walk in. The Pixel display replaced the recent Moto Z display that has been there for almost 1 year. Next in line was the Samsung display, then Apple.

LG wants a bigger display they better start putting more money if MDF (market development funds) to get retailers to do more with their products. Verizon gets an exclusive and both companies have big MDF to promote Pixels. As most of the current and former store employees have said here - they have never seen an LG Rep. LG wants big working displays, it LG's responsibility to pay for them, provide working phones and train store employees.

Yes, I will agree with the title of the thread - the V30 is being sabotaged, But the #1 company responsible for this sabotage is LG.

Have yet to see a commercial. If you don't respect your product no one else will.

Yes, I've been to 2 TMobile stores and they didn't have it out on display. They had to bring it out from the backroom. Didn't even try to sell me on it nor seem to be excited about it. Probably got bribed to sell other brands.

No, they have no training on the phone. People sell what they know and are comfortable with selling. LG wants stores to sell their phones they need to hire reps to go out and train store sales people.

Sales incentives are a great way to get the attention of salespeople. Nothing wrong with it, great way to boost sales of your products. If sales people are not excited the only company to blame is LG.

I feel like there will always be bias, especially when selling products; but you do have a point about training. People need to be trained to know at least the basics of the newest phones out there; so they can be of assistance to those who come in who do not necessarily/always opt for Samsung/Apple products.

I had to show the guy how to get the pop up window to show up in settings and that was my first time ever touching one.

More frequent updates would help LG rep.

How so? They don't have it or don't have the perception of having "updates" yet grew market share in the US.
