  • Revolutionary chainsaw chain and sharpener claimed to "sharpen in seconds", eliminating the need for slow and difficult "manual sharpening".
  • 1,600 testers put Oregon Powersharp "sharpens in seconds" to the test
  • Real testimonials and user video's at  http://www.powersharp.eu/testimonials 

OREGON® look back at the results of their "brave" campaign to have 1,000+ users put the Powersharp® chainsaw-chain sharpening system to the test. With each user allowed to post testimonials and video live and unfiltered onto the Powersharp website, Oregon had placed real faith in its latest innovation.

The 2011 challenge - to recruit 1000 chainsaw users (professionals or otherwise), to test  the Powersharp® system on their own saws free of charge and collect as many testimonials as possible.

The results - Over 1,600 testers and some amazing, but true, results.

84% of testers did not want to return to "manual sharpening"

97% of them claimed that it lived up to its promises.

98% found the system to be easy and simple to use.

"A brand can be crushed if this kind of campaign goes badly" adds Alan Warburton, UK Managing Director. "We have 100% faith in Powersharp® and we are truly delighted at the number of participants and with the results obtained."

So, the numbers are impressive, but if 84% would not go back to manual sharpening, what about the other 16%? Powersharp is specifically designed to eliminate a sharpening problem for many users. Some professionals, who can sharpen well, choose the faster cutting Oregon chains like 91VXL, which is built for speed, or the Multicut M91VXL, which is built specifically for professional abrasive applications.

The challenge 2012 -"The key to success when communicating about an innovative and exclusive product is to establish direct communication with the users" declares Alan Warburton. "With Powersharp® we established a great interaction with the users and established true credibility in the market. The return generated exceeded the expectations for us and for the users".

"For 2012, OREGON® will continue to nurture this direct interaction with its users. The next Powersharp® campaign is inspired by the results of the first. We will continue to exceed the expectations of chainsaw users and generate maximum satisfaction".
