The dancing is a small part of what the Angels do. They're essentially corporate promotional staff for XXXX. Mostly they're professional 'minglers' at events that XXXX host and/or sponsor to add a touch of glamour. The dancing is just a value-add to XXXX.

Guess it works too - I've just mentioned XXXX four times in two paragraphs. I've been corrupted and brainwashed by the Queensland corporate goliath.

So in conclusion, their marketing hasn't worked. Because you dont purchase their product.

Talking on a forum doesn't sell product...

Judging by the number of people at the XXXX retreats, and the exclusive pouring rights they have at events, they've got a fairly captive market to drink the stuff. I'm sure it's working on some level.

Plus they're trying to promote the brand out of Qld so V8s, being national tour, full day events where people can drink over an extended period (like cricket) is a fairly appropriate marketing platform for them.
