no need to purmp, We have p.r. everyday that is insane.....
For the past posters we don't need p.r. or pumps.
The company has opened a store and is not desperate to sell their product.
If they're new products were available today where i live i would buy 5-10shirts plus some jewelry .
Horiyoshi is a god in tattooing and i work with tattoo artists on a daily basis, no one touches him.
The outlet exposure and the fact horiyoshi is booked for a year in tattooing for a 1k an hour means you can be a part of something you never had access too.
What everyone else is missing except for a few is the scarves are getting promo, celebrities are wearing our clothing, new products are being displayed and sold.
i believe in this company horiyoshi and am long, the way it should be.
large we battle but imo Rogers is in control.
papreny could be trying to sell the project, but rogers licensed the project.
I hope rogers pushes the show. the pr i put out on friday is a insight to what citytv and rgoers are doing.
tomorrow gonna grab up the cheapies.
Appreciate feedback and support from the longs.
I believe positive news for Rogers/City/Paperny is always important for this company.
Most importantly interest has grown substantially in one month and that is a trend that will continue.
I think us closing slightly down is perfectly fine. small volume and good news on my end of dd all around.
DUSS
7k shares let go at 32s lol liable was that you?
NEWS: Update on Canada broadcasters and producers! LEGAL
game changer in a positive way if you were on board with the Rogers aspect
article is massive:
http://www.mondaq.com/canada/x/150250/Broadcasting/Terms+of+Trade+Agreement+Dawn+of+a+New+Era+Between+Canadian+Producers+and+Broadcasters
whole article is worth reading, but this is why i talk about Rogers so much. Look at the license conditions and term changes.
Development and Evaluation
The Agreement provides guidance for the evaluation and development of programs.
It requires that the Broadcasters must make reasonable efforts to effectively communicate with producers across Canada about the types of projects in which they are interested. The Broadcasters must identify on their websites their specific programming services and the personnel in charge of responding to written program proposals with their applicable contact information.
The confidentiality of producers' program proposals is safeguarded by the Agreement and producers must keep confidential the Broadcaster's programming strategies. A Broadcaster cannot request a waiver of any existing rights that a producer may have in its program proposal.
The Agreement further provides that the rights to a program proposal are owned solely by the producer, unless there is a signed development agreement to the contrary. A Broadcaster may not require a producer to commence development before a development agreement is executed. However, once a development agreement is signed, a Broadcaster's financial participation entitles it to certain exclusive rights, such as to request changes to delivered materials, to participate in additional development and to negotiate a license agreement. The development agreement may not incorporate the terms of a license agreement. These terms are only to be negotiated once the project has been fully developed or the Broadcaster has made an order for the project.
Where a Broadcaster expresses an interest in developing a project, the Broadcaster and the producer must use best efforts to execute a development agreement within 60 days. Each phase of development must be specified in the development agreement and the Broadcaster has no more than 18 days (40 days in the case of animation co-production) following the receipt of development materials to inform the producer of whether it approves the submitted development materials. If the Broadcaster chooses to turn down the proposal, the Broadcaster is only entitled to reimbursement from the producer of its out-of-pocket cash investment in the development of the project. If the project is ultimately greenlit by another Broadcaster, this reimbursement is to be paid on the first day of principal photography or key animation.
Once the final deliverables under the development agreement have been received, the Broadcaster has 6 months to decide whether it wishes to license the project. At the end of this 6 month period, the Agreement requires the Broadcaster to either (i) order the project (subject to negotiation and agreement of the licence terms), (ii) agree with the producer to continue to further develop the project, or (iii) release its interest in the project in writing.
Licence Conditions
When a project is greenlit by a Broadcaster, it may then engage in negotiations with the producer to license the project.
The Agreement provides the producer with a 90 day period, once the Broadcaster agrees to order the project, to confirm all other sources of financing for the production. This 90 day period may be altered by mutual agreement so as to provide flexibility for funding deadlines and "exigencies of production".
The Broadcaster must sign a long-form broadcast license agreement at least 2 weeks prior to the commencement of principal photography or key animation, provided that the producer has submitted "reasonable agreed-upon deliverables" . The Broadcaster must then broadcast the program on a CRTC-licensed platform within 12 months of the commencement of the licence term. The Broadcaster must make good faith efforts to notify the producer 30 days in advance of the first broadcast of the program. Finally, if a Broadcaster wishes to order additional episodes of a program for a new season, the order must be made within 6 months of the first broadcast of the last commissioned episode of the preceding season.
A Broadcaster's right of first negotiation ("ROFN") and right of last refusal ("ROLR") in both development and license agreements is limited by the terms of the Agreement. A ROFN provides the Broadcaster with the first right to negotiate to develop or license a program before the producer can enter into negotiations with another Broadcaster. The Agreement requires that that a ROFN must be exercised by the Broadcaster by a fixed start date or in reference to a clearly specified timeframe identified in the development or license agreement. If no timeframe is provided, then the timing of the exercise of the ROFN will be at the sole discretion of the producer. If negotiations with the Broadcaster are entered into as a result of the exercise of the ROFN, the duration of the negotiation will be the timeframe specified in the development or license agreement, but cannot exceed 45 days.
A ROLR provides the Broadcaster with the right to license a project that it previously rejected by matching the terms offered by another Broadcaster. A ROLR can significantly limit the bargaining power of the producer. As a result this type of right is limited by the provisions of the Agreement. Specifically, a Broadcaster may only be granted a ROLR to (i) acquire exclusive exhibition rights for additional programs (meaning additional episodes of the same season or any subsequent season of the program, any sequels, prequels or remakes of the program, or any spin-off programs) or (ii) to obtain an extension of the licence term.
The Agreement further addresses a Broadcaster's entitlement to share in any surplus financing proceeds beyond the original approved financing plan and/or in any production underages. Where the producer receives surplus funds for a project after the Broadcaster has approved the project's financing plan, the Broadcaster and the producer must give good faith consideration to whether the surplus funds should form part of the financing of the production budget. The Agreement provides that under no circumstances will the surplus entitle the Broadcaster to require a reduction in its licence fee. The Broadcaster is, however, entitled to a share of the surplus funds in proportion to any equity investment it has made in the project. Further, where a program is produced under budget, the Broadcaster is entitled to a pro-rata share of the underages proportional to its investment in the financing of the project.
License Term
The Agreement also provides for specific limits on the term of a broadcast license. Specifically, a broadcast license can only have a maximum duration of 5 years (subject to a possible ROFN and ROLF as described below). This 5 year term must commence no later than the earlier of (i) 6 months from the delivery of the program (or the last episode of the program in the case of a series), or (ii) the first telecast of the program (or any episode of the program in the case of a series).
While previously, a Broadcaster could negotiate an automatic extension of the original license term for the original season if additional seasons were ordered, this is no longer permitted by the Agreement. For example, a Broadcaster can no longer automatically extend the term of Season 1 once it orders Season 2 to ensure that the licenses for both Season 1 and 2 end simultaneously. This ensures that producers do not progressively lose the potential value of exploiting earlier seasons as new seasons are produced and broadcast.
A Broadcaster is permitted to have a ROFN and a ROLF in order to extend the original 5 year term of the license, but only if a fair market value license fee is paid to the producer for the extension. Each subsequent license extension is for a maximum period of up to 5 years. The Broadcaster may exercise its right to extend the license as of the earlier of (i) 6 months prior to the expiry of the third year of the original 5 year licence term, or (ii) 3 months following the execution of the licence agreement for a subsequent season of the program.
I cannot fathom how we are down today when we had the Rogers/CityTV PR this morning.

#30 on breakout boards today.
The 14 days for launching Mashiah's site is very interesting. On her website she had that countdown last month as well and it was suppose to launch on oct.1 i assumed the counter just readjusted at the end of each month. but 14 days from now is Nov. 4 that would be a hard number someone put in.
We have retailers and are buying inventory in china!
from the past year when the show aired. not only do we have retailers that the show documented. Jason stated he now is purchasing clothing out of china as well.
I wonder how you read y and it interpret as a black x
So it's one channel with different regional access. just trying to clarify there isn't a citytv and citytv2 as i am not in canada, but the good sign is CTV2 is biggern than CityTV and we are doing better ratings. first for that.
do they air the same programming except time change?
i think you are talking about CTV there's a difference. City doesn't have a City2
there hiding as p.r. is dropping out of the sky.
read that rogers/citytv article. it's great news for dussault. fx canada could be a streamline to fx america....

Zoove Secures New $5 Million Investment from Rogers Ventures to Deliver StarStar Numbers to Brands and Advertisers
this is very interesting. could be helpful for the show.
"Zoove will use the funds to further accelerate its U.S. operations as the exclusive provider of StarStar numbers for the largest wireless operators in the United States, reaching more than 250 million people.
StarStar numbers let brands easily connect with people – anytime, anywhere, on any mobile phone. They are easy-to-remember branded vanity mobile numbers designed to be promoted as part of any marketing campaign, such as: billboards, print or online ads, TV and radio commercials, consumer packaged goods and more. With StarStar numbers, consumers simply call the name of the brand they see being promoted (e.g. **BRAND). Instantly, the brand's mobile app, Web page, coupon, videos or more, can be pushed directly to consumers' mobile phones – without the need to use bar code readers or disjointed text message short codes."

NIce P.R. Article out today and awesome new pics of clothing.

http://magazine.motilo.com/gianluca-longo-loves-horiyoshi-iii/
excerpt: "I have become a big fan of the scarves: they are made from the finest silk cashmere blends. Hand woven in a village nearby Mount Fuji, their prints are screened by hand too. How amazing! Also, they are chic over a suit and very warm for a long haul flight. No wonder Kate Hudson, Tilda Swinton, Valentino, Gwen Stefani and Grace Coddington wear them all the time."
They are available in canada with a subscription through nielsen or bbm.ca
Already ahead of you bud lol
They aren't actually available in Canada. If you really wanted them.. I think there is a subscription you can sign up for. Apparently, its a couple thousand dollars. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.
Take care,
David
Paperny Entertainment
that's a weird statment for a person to make.
i've contacted nielsen canada which is different than nielsen u.s. and you can setup an account. it's very pricey. I have been able to get the ratings from a Canadian Newspaper's TV Critic's articles. That's why it takes till Wed before I can even put up ratings or why there's no info on the early first two shows as no one wrote about Dussault.
For the two episodes we know we had: 50k+ one week and 25k this past week with the new time slot. check out the legitimacy of who i'm getting the numbers from. who says blogs aren't important. what's interesting is the fact he contributes to MSNBC...

regarding getting retail support for the company.
the blog written by jason this week is detailing the fact he has now started purchasing clothing wholesale from china instead of in vancouver.
imo our new wholesaler is in Guangzhou, China based on the fact dussault hired someone working there to the board of directors.
August 02, 2011:
Ms. Kostakou holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of British Columbia. Currently she is a teacher with the Canadian International Organization in Guangzhou, China. Previously she was in logistics management for B-Tech S.A., a Greek corporation where she was involved in logistics coordination for customer and supplier orders, inventory management, liaison with international forwarders and customs brokers. She is fluent in Greek and English.
Actually a blog is P.R. just like twitter or facebook. When a CEO/Athlethe/Entertainer writes something regarding his business and specifies certain details of the company, that is p.r.
to help on an true level
A press release provides reporters with an information subsidy containing the basics needed to develop a news story.
A press statement is information supplied to reporters. This is an official announcement or account of a news story that is specially prepared and issued to newspapers and other news media for them to make known to the public.
happy you thought that was funny. i do too.
Jason personally put that on his blog which is only p.r.
looked at the facebook page for dussault inc. and noticed that it's trending more and more daily.
how did you come up with that statment?
"Dussault Inc. Jason does a lot John, but the sales of the Show falls to Paperny Entertainment."
Why would sales go to Paperny? They didn't pay for the production.
that's funny and true. your correct. except....
reality shows in the u.s. average on primetime the highest ratings overall when you include cable. in canada it's scripted over reality on average.
the u.s. markets are infected with reality shows/reality networks/and repeat reality programming. when you have 10-50 reality shows airing new episodes on a nightly basis it's difficult to compare to canada's homegrown reality shows which are few and far between.
imo dussault is a test for city/rogers/paperny..
i thought the same. reality shows and canadians don't mix.
i think on average they're viewed 1/10 as much as the same show in the u.s.
example: pawn stars does around 4mil in the u.s. think they did 500k in canada last week.
. i'm impressed we've cleared 150k on a saturday "expletive" night where the time slot sucks.
i've been a fan of rogers helping this show, but for them to move a show an hour up and announce it two days before air is just stupid. Someone might have it out for this show on their end, this would be like futurama/family guy/arrested development a long time ago. constant time changes/airing during masssive sport events/no ad or marketing push. then look how they rebounded. destructively.
season2 is shot and wrapped, there's confidence from one side of development. this doesn't mean all aspects are looking to make this a winner. imo if an exec pushes it down, resistance will show through at the end of the day. there's interest and a market.
same thought process=winning mentality.
vancouver is a beautiful city. i almost like it as much as l.a., but it gets cold.
i posted ratings for last week as well.
it was in the 50k range, don't remember the exact number.
the ratings can be found.
there are two companies who track canadaian tv ratings that are affiliated.
nielsen canada or bbm.ca
you can call them and setup an account if you truly want to stay informed and have the numbers available immediately.
the ratings i'm posting are from a tv critic who directly works for a newspaper writing columns about television. he releases the ratings usually about this time every week for last weeks numbers.
hope this helps!
i posted ratings for last week as well.
we did 55,000 for episode 3.

http://www.toronto.com/blog/post/701590--the-brioux-report-where-have-all-the-cbc-viewers-gone-this-season
this is a weekly column in the toronto star written by bill brioux of the tvfeedsmefamily blog. he is a television critic who releases the weekly ratings to the public.
Ratings for new time slot....
25,000.
we lost half the audience from last week with the time slot change.. no u.s. deal in site with ratings like this.
On the plus side we know 125,000+ canadians have watched the first 4 episodes which i think is a decent market appeal for a clothing company considering livinglarge's DD on the sales.
ratings breakdown for 10/15:
"Hockey Night in Canada scored 2,121,000 fans for the Toronto/Colorado game and Don Cherry apology. The later Vancouver/Edmonton game drew 1,170,000 fans.
Drake helped Saturday Night Live soar to 511,000 viewers. Dussault, Inc. found 25,000 viewers on City at 7:30. Winnipeg/Edmonton drew 558,000 CFL fans on TSN. The Texas/Detroit playoff game batted 409,000 on Sportsnet."
http://www.toronto.com/blog/post/701590--the-brioux-report-where-have-all-the-cbc-viewers-gone-this-season
we're on again saturday. Dussault: Saturday, October 22 at 7:30pm ET/PT (7:30CT, 7:30MT)
***Time Change***
“Hong Kong City”
When Jason goes to Hong Kong to find a manufacturer for his new Deuce by Dussault line, Mashiah takes Ayden to her sister’s farm in Abbottsford, B.C.
we don't need this company to be worth a few dollars, just a few pennies.
interesting comparison about duss being a competitor.
from a yahoo finance article:
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/VF-Corp-Third-Quarter-wscheats-1706323357.html?x=0
Competitors to Watch: Gap , Sears Holdings , Wal-Mart , Target , Urban Outfitters , Abercrombie & Fitch , American Eagle Outfitters , Aeropostale , J.C. Penney , Saks , Macy’s , Dillard’s , Nordstrom , True Religion Apparel, Inc. , Dussault Apparel Inc. (DUSS), VLOV Inc. (VLOV), Cherokee Inc. , and The Warnaco Group, Inc. .
nice dd. i think jason's blog sums it up.
to disclose he sold out of clothing is the endgame statement.
that kind of clarity from a penny stock ceo is unbelievable.
this is the reminder why people don't know why or what they are doing?
emotional upswings and rash moves made on the market are amateur plays.
i picked up a 100k today and am happy to do it.
let's see the numbers keep falling and when season2, q4, or tv news hit we blast.
thanks to those who are and stay truly invested in the company they put their money into.
hopefully ratings will be released for episode4 tomorrow or thursday.
go duss. long....
this is superb if you haven't spent all your cash.
i'm grabbing em up cheap. keep letting em go and i'll snatch some up.
the way this is moving it's hilarious. we were way overvalued and now the opposite....which suits me perfectly
this is getting to be too high of volume. at this point they'll be no room to run because l2 walls will be too immense to surpass/ ive seen this happen to stocks and it looks like tytn is there and will stay there without any major p.r.
