Mustang12 has given me the most reasonable response to my concerns in the previous post. As long as potential customers of BFYW 'wellness' products make no mental connection to the face of Ian James, there should be no major problem. I think that means that the BFYW initials and logo and website address should not appear anywhere on their products. The face of Ian James should be kept as a virtual secret to the average customer.

I have no knowledge of holding companies, and how they operate. Can anyone give me an example of popular products I might buy, where the company that sells it is actually held by a higher level holding company? And are customers like me likely to be completely unaware of the holding company?

While Mustang12 has given me the most reasonable assurances so far, his very first words in his first response to my first post about "The face of BFYW" showed that he sometimes thinks in a completely irrational way. He said, "You must be a woman because no man would write this." Well, I can only guess at the thought processes that led him to write those words. The words were somewhat effective as a funny insult. However his conclusion was 100% incorrect, I'm pretty sure. My birth certificate shows I was born a male. I have reproductive organs like a male, which proves that I must have a Y chromosome, just like any male. I served 4 years in the USAF, as a male enlistee. I have lusted after females, but never males. I've never had any sort of sex change operation. And I am almost 78 years old, so I can't be a boy rather than a man. So it looks like a very good bet that I actually am a man. And indeed, I did write the words that initially shocked Mustang12.

By the way, while I too have the impression that most of the people who post here are men, I think it might be good if women posted their opinions here--especially about BFYW, a company whose future products may appeal mainly to women. What do you women think about the potential problem of the moles on Ian James' face? Are there any women reading this?

[Mustang12]

Gwyneth Paltrow is selling her persona, so yes, if she suddenly broke out in moles it would impact her sales because the deliberate inference is that she looks the way she does because of her products (assuming she was selling cosmetics or facial cremes...not sure how it would affect her candle sales...but i digress)

Better For You Wellness is not selling Mr. Ian James persona, likeness, visage, in any way. No connection is implied between Mr. James appearance and the products that he may be selling.

Not to mention, Mr. James will not be selling anything directly. He is the CEO of a holding company that will amass a assortment of companies that will be selling products/services. etc. Although he may well be the 'face' of the corporation, I would feel safe in assuming that the companies that would be selling their products, would not be relying on his physical appearance to market their items.

[Papalaka]

Not in the slightest. Add more on every dip

[georgeofthebungle]

Not complaining and not everyday. Simply saying vagina scented candles are a better concept than what these guys have coming is all. Didn’t hear a single person even disagree. I think everyone here knows they’ve been had.

[daisyfresh]

How did they manage to get Fulton's Fish Market into a candle?

Mustang12 said: "The 'face' of a company, particularly ones that sell products is usually handled by Marketing firms, which this company has already hired." Well, if potential customers of BFYW products are making no mental connection between the new BFYW products and Ian James' face, there should be no problem. I was imagining, for example, that BFYW had a new face cream which they claimed was extremely healthy for the face. Would a woman who knew this face cream was an Ian James product, and knew what he looked like, want to put this cream on her face? Probably not, I think.

But as long as potential customers of BFYW products have no reason to make a mental connection between the products and Ian James' face, I guess his face should be no problem at all for the business. Whereas if Gwyneth Paltrow suddenly developed a set of moles on her face, just like those of Ian James, I think that would be a big problem for her Goop business. Because all the products are associated with her.

[edro]

He's the face of the company,lol.Butt,as I always say,don't get fooled by a pretty face.

[kevhead]

You're joking...right???....WOW...BFYW$$

[Papalaka]

Only in the OTC do these ding dongs come out…

[Mustang12]

You must be a woman because no man would write this. And no, I am not a misogynist. As an investor/Stock holder all I care about in a CEO is his business acumen, .i.e. is he good at what he does and will he make me money.
The 'face' of a company, particularly ones that sell products is usually handled by Marketing firms, which this company has already hired.
Your opinion, to which you are certainly entitled, bespeaks of a personal bias, vs any due diligence/criteria on which to make a financial/investment decision. If it works for you... good luck.
All in my humble opinion, of course....

[Senylover]

The 'face' of BFYW:
This is an impolite subject, but I decided to bring it up to see what you other people think. When I first saw the face of the CEO Ian James in a picture (see www.bfyw.com), I was struck by how unattractive he is. I can see four moles on his face down around his nose and mouth, which make his face look rather disgusting (to me). And I tend to imagine that almost anyone who saw his face would have about the same reaction. So I sure wish it was his partner Stephen Letourneau who was the CEO, rather than Ian James, because his partner's face looks handsome and healthy. And the faces of all the other people on the Board of Directors look normal and healthy.

If BFYW were a company devoted to manufacturing sewer pipes or whatever, I don't think it should matter at all what the CEO's face looks like. But since this new company is supposed to be devoted to "wellness" (which I think implies health and beauty), I think it's important that the 'face' of this new company should look healthy and attractive. Much like Gwyneth Paltrow is the attractive 'face' of her company called Goop.

Now most of the people who will be buying 'wellness' products associated with BFYW will probably never see the face of Ian James, unless they go to the BFYW website and see his face there. But if he does magazine or TV or Web interviews, potential customers of BFYW will see his face, and have a chance to be attracted or repelled. I think any potential customer who knows that this is the face associated with a 'wellness' product that they were thinking of buying, will likely decide not to buy it.

So I wrote an email to Ian James, explaining my thoughts. And told him that if he wants his BFYW company to succeed, I think it would be good if he would just go to a dermatologist, and get those moles removed. And after the wounds heal, post a new photograph of his face at his website. While getting those moles removed would not transform him into a really handsome guy, at least people would not be immediately repelled by the sight of the moles on his face.

Ian James was polite enough to give me extended replies in a back and forth conversation. But he seemed to have no interest at all in getting rid of the moles on his face. I understand that moles are not an actual health problem, and he's learned to live with them. My point is simply that they look ugly when there is a cluster of them on his face, and this could be a turn-off to customers of his products, and other people he might like to do business with.

Another solution would be for Ian James to swap roles with his partner Stephen Letourneau, making the other guy the CEO and handsome 'face' of BFYW. I realize that this is extremely unlikely. But as a BFYW stock holder, I sure would be much happier if Letourneau were the 'face' of BFYW.

So what do you think? Am I crazy for writing to Ian James about this topic? Or is he the one who is demonstrating a stubborn blindness to a real problem for BFYW which he could easily solve by going to a dermatologist and getting his moles removed?

[georgeofthebungle]

Thought I would be able to but management here keeps stealing my money.

[Papalaka]

You’re still here? Thought you moved out of Mommy’s basement already?
