As many people may have noticed today, Behringer has announced many new products on the official website. This night then the retreat. The company apologizes to the customers that one of the employees made a mistake. That’s what they shared on Facebook.
“Dear Friends,

As we are owning the mistake, we also feel it’s necessary to inform the public about this error as a sign of good faith. It was not our intention to mislead customers in any way nor use this as a marketing tool.

Personally, the second one is more for me because the plans for this synths are there. Even if it was a mistake on the communication side, it was a good food for the media, including me. That’s my opinion.
What do you think? A simple mistake or a marketing strategy? Would be cool to read your opinion!
