Has anybody on this board ever tried to raise business capital? So many people are bitching about the delays and the complications associated with the daily operations of this company. First of, the operations of the business and the structure of the stock are two completely different issues. The Business is concerned with producing products; the stock structure is the means by which to achieve that. Just because the stock is looking less-than-appealing, that doesn't mean the company is a scam. It also doesn't mean that the newsletter that updates info about the stock/company is a scam. You people must believe that the business world is run on a concoction of Pixie dust, magic wands, happy thoughts, and Genies who grant wishes. Disney isn't real-life. Everything costs money; some cost more, some cost less, and some cost a serious ass-of-cash. Nothing is free.
If you're one of those complaining about the lack of promotion, PLEASE make some calls to some of the top advertising agencies and get an idea of the cost that you are wanting the company to take on. While you're doing that, keep in mind how much you've complained about the dilution. How much dilution would be created by that kind of spending right now??? Stock Watch Index may not be a top-tier ad agency, but it's a start. If you're expecting The Aegis Group to come in here and do promotions, expect A LOT MORE than 2,000,000 shares to be spent! In fact, expect NOTHING, because I don't think they barter for OTC shares.
Because of the overburdonsome regulatory atmosphere, this company ( as are many, MANY others) is seriously limited on it's means of raising working/expansion capital. It's followed the only avenue available. (I don't like it either; ASSher pisses me off!!) If you don't believe me, go out and try to get a traditional loan for start-up capital. If you think it's so easy and simple, TRY IT!!! I have; I know what I'm talking about. Also do some actual research beyond a message board. Look for straight-forward information on Reg D, Rule 144, Accredited Investor, SEC Compliance, Angel Capital, etc, etc. Find out for yourself how difficult the business environment is before you start calling people crooks and scammers.
I'm disgusted at the pre-school type playpen that this board has turned into. For crying out loud, one of the Stickies is an opinion-based post about another poster running a scam! That stickie is just above another stickie (from the same poster(and a MOD as well!)) that says to keep posts about stock related issues and not personal attacks.
Never take my word for anything; I'm just some Schlub trying to make money, like everyone else. Sometimes, I'm right; sometimes, I'm wrong. Never trust your money to somebody else.
