WHAT BIG PHARMA COMPANIES DON’T WANT YOU TO KNOW

Here’s a little something to share around your Thanksgiving table:

I just received this client testimonial, from a real client of course. This is not to be confused with Fake News:

My husband John Doe was having severe chest pains, shortness of breath, and growing an absurd amount of ear hair. We were shocked when we went to the doctor and found out the symptoms were due to rare kind of athlete’s foot. We were even more surprised when the doctor didn’t prescribe drugs, but rather gave us a referral to Talaheim’s Alaskan Fishing Lodge.

Client Testimonials - guest with rainbow trout

Well my husband John Doe just returned from his week long fishing trip, where he spent 6 days fishing pristine waters by helicopter, and evenings around a cozy wilderness lodge where beautiful ladies served him great food. All that time spent in remote Alaska and now his blood pressure is that of a 20 year old, and his ear hair has replanted itself to the chest. He still has athlete’s foot, but it’s the type brought on by clean Alaskan streams and waders, not sweaty work loafers, so this is something we can tackle with cheap over the counter stuff.

 Bad on you big pharma – selling us all those drugs for so many years when the real cure was as simple as booking an Alaskan fishing trip. Good health and a relaxing week on the river was well worth the money. And I’m quite liking the chest hair.

 Sincerely,

Jane Doe

(Disclaimer: This ad will be removed when people find out Talaheim doesn’t cure toe fungus or ear hair. We’ll then run this ad again, claiming we can cure ear ringing, then again as a cure for irritable bowel syndrome.)

My daughter says I have to get real about marketing, so I did what everyone else is doing and made up my own fake news.

But if you’re interested in reading real news, or what our real clients said about us in 2019, check out a few below!

Thanks to everyone who found their own cure to all of life’s ailments at Talaheim Lodge this last summer. My flight physician ensures me that my blood pressure and chest hair is that of a 20-year-old, and I know it has a lot to do with my amazing clientele.

We came to Talaheim Lodge to both fulfill a lifelong dream and to celebrate my dad’s addition to making the world a little bit better place.  We couldn’t have asked for a better week!  We laughed, we told stories, we caught lots of fish and most importantly, we met great people and a father and son got to spend some important tie together.  Thank you Mark, Scott, Josh, Trever, Jessica, Troy and Felicia.  We hope that one day we can show you the same fantastic hospitality you have shown us.  We will recommend Talaheim Lodge to all our friends.

Amazing fishing and nature.  Can’t say enough about that.  But the most outstanding thing about Talaheim is the people!  Each guide is outstanding with his own personality and love for the sport.  Professional all the way.  The staff, each and every member of the team couldn’t have done more to make us welcome.  Mark has built a well tuned group that work together to make Talaheim a place to remember – and maybe a place to return.

What a great place.  What a great fishing experience.  What great guides, staff, guides and pilots!  Too bad time does not stop here.   I’ll be back with my two boys within a few years, so please keep Talaheim running.

 Thanks a lot for the great experience!

We came here for a father and son trip to look for Alaska wilderness.  We found a great family lodge in the middle of the wilderness. Food, guides were perfect.  The fishing was spectacular.  We will be definitely coming back and recommend it to many friends in Germany.

This was a stellar and unforgettable trip!  Between Trevor yelling “set the hook” and the incredible views, this was the trip of a lifetime.  All guides were incredibly knowledgeable and all around fun.  It was learning with Trevor, vacation with Nick, and adventure with Doc.  Will not forget, and incredibly thankful for this experience.  All the best
