Reminds me of this saying:


“If there was only one crab in the bucket it would certainly escape. However, when there is more than one crab in the bucket, if one tries to crawl out, the other crabs would grab hold and pull it back down so that it would share the same fate as the rest of them.”

This is true with people. If one person attempts to better himself, other people will attempt to drag him back down to share their fate. “ You must ignore the crabs if you want to be a success in life.

I just did a search for the key word "leggings" in google and onlyleggings came up in the number one spot in the organic listings below the ads section. I cleared my history, cookies and all the other data housed by Internet explorer and it still came up in the number one spot in the organic listings.

Can someone please do the same search to validate.

Are you sure the 4th quarter 2011 projections were missed??

Gross Sales
Definition: Gross sales are the total sales recorded prior to sales discounts and returns.

I had the same issues with etrade. They ended up telling me that they will not accept a transfer of any stock who's price is below a penny.

In January 2011, did anyone think that in the 4th quarter of 2011 BraVada would be achieving sales of 700k per quarter? With only $61k in sales for the first quarter 2011, the growth the company achieved through 2011 is/was remarkable.

Quarter Total Sales % Increase in Sales
1st 2011 $61,161 N/A
2nd 2011 $100,882 39% increase over 1st quarter
3rd 2011 $221,813 219% increase over 2nd quarter
4th 2011 $700,000 (estimate) 315% increase over 3rd quarter

If in 2012 BraVada is able to even come close to the same growth rate, the sales will be in line with the original estimates of 6.1 million to 7 million. Do the math and see for yourself, I did.

We have a rapidly growing company here folks and I am all in!

I noticed that bravadawomen.com is coming up in the ad sections on google when searching for "yoga" key word combinations.

I've been here a while, lurking behind the scenes.

I have my bases covered and I am very comfortable with my investment.

We have an something good brewing here!! Very exciting!!

Great to hear!! This puts a smile on my face. ))

Thanks for checking

I was doing some research this morning and found this.

Bravada is mentioned in the captions below the 3rd picture in this article.

Longest we have gone without a PR is 14 days and it happened 2 times. We are currently at the 10 day mark.

Thank you for the reply, I really appreciate it.

I have a question.

I think I remember you posting that you have spoken with DA. If you have, what is your opinion of him?

I have been here for some time now and you seem like a "standup guy" therefore I think your opinion is respected by a few board members.

Maybe I will lose my shirt holding on to this stock, like i did at poker this evening, but I think that in the long run we have a great investment here therefore I'm holding.

I see it.....

I see a company with leadership that is not afraid to go in a direction it needs to, to become successful.

I see a company in it's infancy stages growing exponentially.

I see a CEO who isn't afraid of put his neck out to become successful.

I see a CEO who has a rapidly growing company and he is not afraid to do what it takes.

While some folks "smell something", some other's have an open mind "to see"

Official filling for the trademark of "World of Leggings"

http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4001:5pr1dh.4.1

I have to say that I love seeing onlyleggings on the first page of the organic Google search results for leggings. We are listed right there with the "big boys" like Forever21, Amazon, Nordstom, Old Navy, Victoria's Secret and Banana Republic.

This is a great tool! Thanks for sharing

I saw #1 also but in the ad section. Do you see onlyleggings in the regular results?

I just did a google search for "Leggings" and onlyleggings.com was on the first page in the add section and in the regular search results. Can someone also try this search please to verify.

I do not post here very often but I do read almost all the comments. I just want to put in my thoughts about the CC.

I was looking for a few key points from DA.
1. Where has the company been
2. Where the company is right now
3. Where he wants the company to be

To me, these are very important for a leader, a CEO to know/understand and after today I am more confident then ever that DA knows what he is doing and that he has a plan.

Good luck to all of us investors.

"This may be the last stock you will ever have to trade." This comment was posted by Thatguy a few days ago and it kind of stuck with me. Let's hope he's right!

Target carries it.

I agree, very well put.

Bravada is hiring again. Ad was listed on 9/28.

onlyleggings.com also shows up on the first page for Bing search results.

So now we have first page listings in the ads sections on:

BRAVADA Women's Athletica; Two Positions (West LA)

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/ret/2549740347.html

Let's do some simple math based on Monday's PR'd sales numbers and multiply by 7 (7 days in a week), then by 30 (30 days in a month) and then 90 (90 days in a quarter).

Let's see what Monday brings for actual figures but I have say, this is pretty exciting!!

Original PR Sales figures
Total AdWords Expenditure: $758.00
Total Online Sales: $1,822.00


Projected Sales figures 7 Days
Total AdWords Expenditure: $5,306.00
Total Online Sales: $12,754.00


Projected Sales figures 30 Days
Total AdWords Expenditure: $22,740.00
Total Online Sales: $54,660.00

Projected Sales figures 90 Days
Total AdWords Expenditure: $68,220.00
Total Online Sales: $163,980.00

I agree, maybe it wasn't the most earth shattering news, but I love to hear the consistent progress being made.

Maybe another objective of these PRs is to keep the boards buzzing which creates curiosity in the company.

These PRs serve at least two purposes that I can think of:

1. They keep investors informed of any progress being made

2. They are promoting the company

Great post, thank you!

Maybe we are starting to see a new pattern....."buy on results"

Found this article

I have a question.

If/when BraVada turns a profit, will it really matter how many shares are authorized?

There have need a lot of posts here complaining about the increase in A/S and my opinion is that any company will do what it needs to do to get to profitability.

I have been looking around at other pink stocks and from what I have seen, the number of authorized shares we have here are fairly low in comparison.

Great information and pictures! Thank you for taking the time to put this together.

I'M NOT SELLING

Anyone else?

bravada.com no longer redirects to bravada women. Looks like it will be the future website/store for the Bravada Elite line.

http://www.bravada.com

Bravadawomen.com now shows on the first page of google's search results when you search for the key words of “women’s activewear”

Here are results, in google’s order, including alexa.com USA traffic rankings for each website.

1. Lucy.com with a traffic ranking of 21,736
2. Oldnavy.com with a traffic ranking of 2,755
3. Sportsauthority.com with a traffic ranking of 1,677
4. Bravadawomen.com with a traffic ranking of 36,769
5. Gap.com with a traffic ranking of 212

Bravadawomen.com is displayed right with the big players.

This was already tested earlier today but I had to give it a try myself. My female friend is visiting and I gave her a copy of the magazine and I said "try to find where that bra is from". She googled "Britney Spears sports bra in people magazine" and she found it within 30 seconds.

I started keeping track of the alexa.com USA traffic rankings a few days ago. If anyone is interested in how BraVada is trending, here you go. I wish I knew how to post a screen shot here because I have this in a nice graph.
