Are times getting desperate for Lovefilm?
A friend of mine had an encounter that surprised him, and me, the other day: a knock on the door turned out to be a salesman trying to get him to re-sign to Lovefilm, the subscription video service. (s AMZN)
Let me say that again: a door-to-door salesman.
I think that's a first, for me at least. While lots of internet services market heavily — television ads, radio spots, billboards, leaflets and print — I have never come across this sort of feet-on-the-street approach before.
Ive had this myself. A LoveFilm salesman came to the door thing was I hadn't stopped my subscription which was to the bewilderment of the Salesman.
I totally agree with the above post as I recently heard that LoveFilm offered a friend 6 months free so they didn't leave (clearly hopping you forget when the 6 months is up).
While I have both LoveFilm and Netflix I see myself using LoveFilm less and less on Friday night I was looking for something to watch I perused both services but again found myself on Netflix rather than its competitor.
With Netflix now having House of Cards and soon Arrested Development I can see this as the beginning of LoveFilm's decline.
