Found this press release from January 30, 2009 from Kioti for the DK50SE HST:

Wendell, NC- KIOTI Tractor, a division of Daedong Industrial Co., Ltd, is pleased to announce the introduction of two new models to their growing line of DKSE hydrostatic drive tractors. The DK50SE HST and the DK35SE HST Cab are now available to the North American market. KIOTI's DKSE Series now boasts 6 models in the 35 49 horsepower range. The new DK50SE HST and DK 35SEHST have all the quality components and standard features that owners of KIOTI products have come to love and are both available with standard ROPS or with a fully enclosed cab.

The brand new KIOTI DK50SE HST 49 horsepower tractor boasts a Tier IV, 4-cylinder, water-cooled diesel engine. A Rear PTO with optional mid-PTO allows users of this mid-range tractor to power a multitude of implements and attachments, making it capable of handling a wide variety of chores around the farm or jobsite. A Category I, 3-point hitch further enhances the DK50's versatility. "Many users have come to love our DKSE HST tractors for their ease of use and versatility," states Ron Parrish, Market Development Manager for KIOTI Tractor. "Anyone who can drive a car can get into the operator's seat of one of these machines and quickly become comfortable and productive operating it."

KIOTI's new DK50SE HST model is available with or without a cab, an increasingly popular feature among KIOTI buyers. Making the tractor available in a cab model allows buyer's the luxury of heating or air conditioning and protection from the weather. With this option, the tractor can essentially be used year-round, regardless of weather conditions.

Standard features on these new models include: high visibility glass, power steering, front and rear working lights, wet-disc brakes for increased safety, a rear differential lock, one lever joy stick loader control, electronically engaged four wheel drive, electronically engaged PTO with auto and manual positions, an oil cooler and KIOTI's industry-leading 4-Year, Full-Fleet Warranty.

All of the features found in the DK50SE HST are also found on the slightly smaller KIOTI DK35SE HST, 38 horsepower model. "The success of our DK line in large part is due to all the standard features built into the machines," states Parrish. "Many competitive tractor manufacturers offer these same features at an additional cost. When you purchase a KIOTI, they are part of the package."

He said they have them in stock at Kioti, not at his dealership. I for one would rather they show up at the dealer before the website, how would you feel if you found the tractor of your dreams and drove 1hr+ to see it and they were not at the dealerships yet? I like knowing they will be in stock before they are advertised.

IN MARKETING, THE HYPE/SPIN COMES BEFORE THE PRODUCT.

There should be a marketing campaign, then product release. The marketing should be designed to stimulate consumer interest, then when the product is released, the consumer should be available at the dealer lots for easy picking.:DPicture rick in a wolf suit:D Ok, on second thought don't.:D

Anyway, it has been awhile since I had any marketing training, so it may be done differently now. I would love to see them update the website more frequently, but I would rather have Kioti send me the owner's manual for proof reading first. Maybe I will offer my services to them, in exchange for a tiller!:)
