UNIVERSAL Turning 40 This Summer

[Universal Rep]

This thread is to make sure everyone knows it. The company has been around forever. And that's a long time.

Now the real questions is, what should we do about it here on BB.com? Giveaways. Swag. Contests. Etc. Post your crazy ideas. Maybe we'll implement them. Or one.

[Derekcerva]

Giveaway stock options. Lol.
Craziest birthday story for a stack

I bet some people have some crazy Party stories

[Giant_Killer]

First, start a Philly Cheese Steak shipping service. That's the key. I'll go on Shark Tank with U-Rep and everything.

Vintage swag...like actual vintage, from the vaults and dusty desk corners

A shaker cup that looks like the original Pak can, shirt with the original Pak can and the number 77 or 40 on the back like a jersey (even though it wasn't prod. til '83)

All expenses paid trip to the Olympia

Pakpiss colored Amino's?

A promo with 40 winners, Overall Winner gets 40 products.

Sign John Meadows to Universal since he's also in his 40's and rules just like the U.

A training video with the music being hits of '77.

should do promos about the history of the company/supplements/lifting.

like giant killer said, would be cool to see some vintage shirts

[Bruins10]

Giveaway total vintage gear

Label your products total vintage for the summer and have giveaways on the "new" labels

[eyeguy]

Vintage gear would be awesome!

[TrainerTone]

A huge giveaway. A commemorative shirt. A search/contest for a new rep for the U or Animal. Limited flavor runs on some supps to celebrate.

[Manzo09]

Definitely a solid giveaway. UNIVERSAL bag full of some of your favorites! I bet that post goes 10 pages deep haha

[eyeguy]

[Joe D]

Obviously a big giveaway, but also show the ads since the begining.

[YouMadOrMirin]

lol let me lift in the cage if I ever go to the Arnold again, that's what I think you guys should do. Just once to let this young boy with a big dream be happy hahaha.

Yes!!!!

[HeavenBeyond]

Huge shout out to Universal. Probably should do some giveaways that include those new bars

[emersonthacker]

Congrats on the longevity!

I vote for big giveaway of the new bars or the new Egg Pro!

[blokpost]

Happy Birthday Universal.
As a contest what about posting video of our heavy lifts in biceps curls/bench/deadlift/squat...

[Jdot5]

build a Universal stack contest using a certain amount of money

[InfraRen]

Do a giveaway promo with 40 items - various best-sellers over the years to celebrate the milestone and the products that got you there.

This guy gets it.

Congrats to Universal and not many companies in this industry can say they've been around for
40 YEARS!!! so that means I've been using products from Universal for a little over 30 years
WOW can't believe it cause it seems like yesterday when I first started using Universal products.
Milk & Egg protein and Liver tabs were some of my first products then Animal Paks was probably
my first multi vitamins that I used as well as the Natural Sterol Complex, and the Old Shock Therapy
and Storm were one of my favorite pre/post combos.

I know Universal did a great promo about 2 yrs ago where you got to name about 5 Universal supplements
that you would like to stack and if you got picked you won the WHOLE stack that was an awesome promo
so would love to see that come back again in honor of your 40yr birthday.

[oconns28]

Definitely and epic giveaway! Something like the first 40 people to give you a suggestion on this forum win something.

To go off of what another suggested 40 winners each day in a countdown to the big day. On the last day(the bday) you select a winner out of the previous 40 winners or 39 if you want Day 40 to be the last and they win a big prize pack

Among other things to celebrate you'll be seeing these lid stickers on Universal products:



Pretty amazing for a company to last so long in this industry, so many companies have come and gone over that time and the industry has changed a lot.

Nice, Universal has come out with quality products all these years. That's the only staying power needed to survive. Quality products with no gimmicks.

Those stickers are definitely a nice touch

I just had an idea for what to do for the 40 year anniversary. Post in this thread when the real food bar will be released and then delete it after an hour. I need to know lol.

[bucsdodgers]

Happy bday to a great company! Unlike you guys I got til 2018 to hit the big 40. You guys should do 40 days or giveaways or 40 days of trivia.

Nice logo and this would be perfect for one of your famous yellow T-Shirts and as you mentioned
40yrs is a very long time for a supplement co. to be around so you must be doing something right.

[FigureGirl88]

Definitely into showing the vintage adds and vintage shirts .. maybe throw in some female gear for all us female animal lovers ! Would be kinda cool to do a promo that's a scavenger hunt!

[Jammer02xd]

Do a giveaway promo with 40 items - various best-sellers over the years to celebrate the milestone and the products that got you there.

I'd vote this or the bag giveaway.

40 days of giveaways? Besides the rhyme, this idea has success written all over it.
