HOW MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE!?!?!

from investor video post 27304:

12:25 mins - some other (1) unexpected things coming shortly, some other deals in the works, interesting, interesting, very very cool!

12:50 - (2) Toys R US WAS one of the big announcements, not sure everyone gets how much this does for the company, goal is not just to be in comic stores but broader range target. Top selling comic books are around 100k units sold. When BENNY worked at marvel, the top 10 selling were over 500k/month circulation. Since they will be doing 1 mil books a week and have to find a source of readers outside of the comic stores. To bring in new readers and new people. Toys r us made sense!!

15:30 - Toys r us looks at this as a real market opportunity.
Because they are not just a video game store, and have so much more going, they can reach broader audience. Toys r us also sells apparel, sporting goods, toys, movies, etc, snack foods, so wider demographic, wider range of advertisers to pick from, easier access into expansion into those markets. Also costs a LOT less to distribute, THEY have their own trucks!!! Other stores utilize UPS etc. So SAVINGS! REDG books can be shipped to one point, and then goes out on toys r us trucks, so many POSITIVE things about working with them. They are excited about it.

18:43 - (3) diamond comic distributors model - boxes of 50 go out with their weekly comic books to each stores, important that REDG doesn't want to dictate, each store can distribute how they want. Diamond - comic book stores get 1 cover. Toys r us will have an exclusive toys r us cover and co-branded bags. REDG will be printing the bags with both Toys R us and REDG and the books will be pre packed into the bags for toys r us merchandise to go into!!! Part of his china trip way back in February, setting all this up! Partnership with active media. Was all set up, so they have new machinery to insert the books into the bags.

21:00 mins - more than half the books in Nov Dec will go to toys r us in those months and then can adjust accordingly in the future. The bag they receive their merchandise in will already have the REDG comic in it. It is free with purchase. These are some of the facets as to why these announcements are so big.

(4) Last blood was brought up a lot! Lots of movement on last blood, can't get into telling us, but some was leaked as y'all found ACTORS Cast: Thomas Jane (DRIVE HARD), Ron Perlman (HELLBOY). Financing and actors and trying to herd it all up, it gets complicated and the timing is a big thing, especially with actors. but everyone is excited, script and director and FX guy, and some distribution stuff in the works, so everything is going well on it! Full length production, cant verify the cast, will be an official announcement, the goal is theatrical release.

30:00 - ***DATED AUG 2014*** will be self sustaining in a few weeks !!!!!!!!! **** DATED AUG 2014*** Looks like it was true!!! As there have been no new notes since SEPT 2014!

They are working on digital versions of GSL and will be explained more when announced, so globally will have access right after they come out. The print version, wayward sons and tesla will be collected into trade and will be sold globally through diamond. will be translated into Japanese too type thing.

Benny, Will you sell less than $1.00 since SS has changed, yes He still will not personally consider selling less than, even at this SS. Benny hasn't sold a single share, and wouldn't consider less than $1. Not looking to make money right now, his goal is to build a company that can stand the test of time and leave a legacy for his children, it is a passion for him, this has been in the works for quite some time over his life. This is not a fly by night or a hobby business. he works 18 hours a day on this company!

41:00 - movie details - there are some announcements soon about (5) magika and (6) wayward sons, and some other things in the works that will be released as soon as they can.

41:30 - the (7) ALA (american library association) is extremely happy with REDG medusas daughter and they have a large stock ready, but there is a large gap 6 months between catalogs and ordering and all that. So deals made now have ramifications months from now (IN JAN-MAR 2015!). But Medusa Daughter has novel version, and a library version, graphic novel, and illustrated thing which is a buy two get 1 free thing, so it has more than 1 type of print. And being worked out with diamond books. Strong showing there. They are fans of wayward sons too because educational component, mythology etc. Tesla, etc, graphic novels, etc. They are hungry for all this content.



HOW DO WE PAY FOR ALL THIS? MAKE MONEY FROM ALL THIS?


47:21 - (8) costs printing and distribution - cant give away competitive information, but their costs are incredibly low. 2 years ago costs yall keep mentioning were from an early business plan (OLD COSTS WERE 530k per million books in printing and shipping and distribution!) and projecting rough business plans, and those were the maximum costs and minimum makes so those were the worst case scenario.

An entire container shipped from china is $3-4k! So even if they have to do 10 containers its only 30k so thats way less than we thought, and toys r us helps as well. and printing costs, even with bags are lower than projections! Its not 500k its much less.

49:91 - (9) deal with bandai, we dont talk about deals, so when finalized.


$$$$$$$$$$$ HOW MUCH DO WE MAKE?!
52:30 - CPM, they are in line with other competitors, whether yearly rate, $25 cpm for interior ad, is the lowest side, now one has done this yet, up to $35 CPM for inferior page, also things like double page spreads, inside cover, back cover, insertions, etc, sponsorships that change CPM and things, so its hard to set.
