Comments on: Breaking news: Atlanta commuters don’t want to listen to “The Bible”… even if James Earl Jones is reading it. http://www.simplyaudiobooks.com/blog/2006/02/13/breaking-news-atlanta-commuters-dont-want-to-listen-to-the-bible-even-if-james-earl-jones-is-reading-it/ An Audio Books Blog from Simply Audiobooks Mon, 26 Dec 2011 00:01:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: Christine Brean http://www.simplyaudiobooks.com/blog/2006/02/13/breaking-news-atlanta-commuters-dont-want-to-listen-to-the-bible-even-if-james-earl-jones-is-reading-it/comment-page-1/#comment-4 Christine Brean Wed, 22 Feb 2006 19:01:51 +0000 http://www.simplyaudiobooks.com/wordpress/?p=6#comment-4 I think you'd have better luck advertising something like "Bible Errors" or "Maybe the Bible isn't inspired". I don't know if there are books like that, but it would peek curiosity. We already know the Bible and get lessons every Sunday. Who wants it 24/7? But something that contradicts our beliefs or gives us surprises in what we believe would be much more interesting.

There was a lengthy-ish debate in the office about whether or not to use that particular version (we had 5 or 6 v ariations running at the same time). In the end, the "It's attention-grabbing, and might spark traffic purely out of curiousity" camp won the day. I know, I know, I know.

I know there's a huge market for Christian literature, so using the Bible in ads might be a good idea from that standpoint, but it also might turn off some customers. I know I wouldn't rush to my computer to sign up if I had heard that on the radio. I would listen to the want ads if James Earl Jones was reading them, and I’d probably pay for the pleasure.
