WE NEED TO FIGURE OUT WHY OUR NEW PRODUCT ISN'T SELLING WELL.

IT'S BUGGY AND OVERPRICED.

OUR COMPETITORS SELL A FAR BETTER PRODUCT AT HALF THE PRICE.

OUR ADS ARE OVERTLY MISLEADING AND VAGUELY RACIST.

OUR PRODUCT NAME REMINDS PEOPLE OF BODILY FLUIDS AND DEATH.

PEOPLE HATE US BECAUSE OUR CEO HAS AN ENDANGERED OWL SHOOTING RANGE ON HIS SUPER YACHT.

DOES ANYONE HAVE AN IDEA TO FIX ALL OF THAT?

MAYBE. DO YOU OWN AN OWL COSTUME?
