All, I have an idea on how to get the Fisker message out and where people can actually see a Fisker Ocean. So, I thought I would put it out in the forum- so here goes.
For me I don't have an easy way to actually look at (and sit in) a Fisker Ocean which I think for some people is a turn off. So I thought why not have all owners of Fiskers also be able to sell Fisker oceans. They could set up in a parking lot and have people acually see the car. If Fisker could provide a sales incentive (so much per car sold) and also provide a sales kit (banner with Fisker on it) as well as some brochours of all Fisker models then this woulld give owners an easy way to set up a sales site. With this concept, in the first year Fisker would have 10k possible sales agents.
What do you think?
Love this idea. I’m also anxious to see the vehicle!
If there's a public event, do you really want total strangers crawling all over your new car, manually rotating the screen, etc.? Unless Fisker is funding the necessary insurance, test drives and even ride-alongs would be out of the question, but you can bet those will be requested and even expected. Given all that, I doubt Fisker legal would ever OK anything more than a refer-a-friend credit for the owner, and likely nothing for the referred party unless they're in need of sales to clear inventory, which would be a bad sign for all of us within the first few years.
@carlh Hi- thanks for the comment. Since it is my car I will choose what I will allow people to do when they look. If I don't want someone to sit in my car then Ill just say no thats not something I want visitors to do. If they don't like my response then they can just keep walking. The key is - its your car you make the rules.
Not to mention that non fisker employees might make claims/promises they can’t keep and then there would be all sorts of complaints and possible litigations against Fisker inc.
heck, our raadgivers can’t even get info straight and they work for Fisker.
Will I get my Fisker One delivered before my VW needs its 100K service?? The race is on..
and…… will we still get the $7500 tax credit? Only HF knows…
Maybe Ocean owners can get a 2% discount on a Ronin for every referral they get and a free Ronin with 50 referrals (even get two Ronins with 100 referrals). Never mind, that's an insanely stupid idea.

@seaphil -- Good point but if the only task is to show them the Ocean or Pear then not sure what type of claims or promises can occur. I would just take their name and tell them to go to the Fisker web site where they can order a Fisker. I would not talk price or make any promises. I might show them the website but it would be up to them to make a reservation. My idea is only to allow folks to see what a nice product the Fisker is.
@ttrinchi -- Thats the key question, what is the incentive fro a person to try and sell a Fisker - cash back - then how much.

I assume once we have Oceans running on roads it will be a promotion for Fisker. I’m sure you might have some unknown visitors asking about Fisker.
How about a Ocean One owners meet every month (one of the weekends mornings) in a popular parking lot like DunkinDonuts where One owners can meet and discuss and people can walk by (& at owners discretion can get inside)!
Fisker reps can also be there to answer any questions and can provide few donuts and coffee to the owners.
Havent seen any further comments. I still think this is a great way to get the Ocean noticed....
Myaby Fisker can provide some possible incentives for this idea....
Right now, I think the challenge is to ramp up delivery and hit the sweet spot of the demand. I think the volumes will be for the Ultra version. There is so much competition in this segment from GM, VW, Hyundai/Kia/Genesis starting late 2023 and for sure in 2024. This is the narrow window of opportunity for Fisker to grab market share.
