While doing a little research on where to find Faygo Rock & Rye for a visiting relative, I went to Faygo.com to see if they had a store locator.

Of course, they have a store locator. But imagine my surprise when Faygo wanted everything but my firstborn before they’d tell me where to find their soda. Name, email, address and favorite flavor as REQUIRED fields?

Whoa, Faygo! Too much, too soon.

We’re like old friends who haven’t seen each other in decades. I’m not ready to divulge anything. I thought it would just be nice to get reacquainted.

Too bad it’s not going to happen now.

Lesson learned: Go slow. Build a relationship. And don’t be afraid to tell people how to find you without asking for anything in exchange.
