Sign of the times baby. It's hemp. Look up the health benefits of that. Just like apple juice, it's got good things. Pleasant Kids can't even make it to a trade show. And if hemp is hip, guess who's making money. I am.
Wish I could say Rico could market Pleasant Kids to be Hip too. Because it could go places.
Whether or not Pleasant Kids makes it comes down to marketing the product correctly. Depends on what Rico envisions for the company - selling to consumers through the markets and Amazon, selling to big chains and hotels and restaurants, being acquired by a big name, or all of the above.
However,
No attention grabbing website yet.
No marketing campaign outside of uploading You Tube Videos and Karents Twitter. I mean, why hasn't Pleasantkids updated their Twitter???
An introduction from Reynolds wasn't really necessary - he basically just read from a computer screen instead of just being a dude and saying "Hey guys. I'm Chris. Excited to be here and hope we can all get this train rolling !"
Ok so there's secrecy about supposed deals now? Then don't post a crappy darkened photo of a truck with supposed pallets going to Cali. Because people are naturally going to ask pertinent questions regarding delivery. But shhhhhhh! Don't tell us. I mean, what the heck is going on here???? Why doesn't EVERYONE on here scream WTF?!?!? Especially after the Pleasant Kids Yoga Sign Up. They can't even use the ACTUAL BRAND LOGO and FONT of the company??? Don't know where it's being held at yet, although there is limited spaces. In actuality, It's a quick flyer, made after a spontaneous idea to promote something "for kids" so Rico has something to post on FB. It was probably Karents Idea since she already does promo and charity work with kids. Why isn't this Yoga signup on the Company Website? Why is it typed in Windows Bradley Hand and Curly Sue Font and why is the actual representative logo missing???
Cmon people.
Just another red herring because he's got nothing else. Pleasant Kids doing yoga?? This is getting good. No location YET. Because he needs to see how much $$ he can get FIRST in registrations. Is this statewide? Nationwide shoutout for parents to sign their kids up? Watch, I bet it'll be an online yoga class. Lol. Pay the money and then get sent to a link to an online kids yoga follow along.
And anyone with a cell phone can take a photo of the ass end of a truck with a bunch of darkened boxes in it and claim it to be whatever they want it to be.
A Shipping receipt would've been more to the point if he wanted to keep the actual destination a secret from the saboteurs.
So if someone ordered two pallets of product, ( thing is we don't know if it's juice or water ), why wouldn't he update the Product Finder on the Website so his Cali shareholders can buy it from the shelves? Or just let us know that it's going to be in a public retail market. Or maybe it's a trial purchase. Whatever the case, if you can't tell the whole story, why post a crappy pic telling NOTHING of the story. Except that its a terrible photo of a darkened back end of a truck with a lot of skewed and bent boxes.
Hey Doc, can you take the "pallets in the truck" photo and lighten the exposure a bit and see if we can see whats all in that truck?
Two whole pallets to a mystery destination in Cali. Ok, Rico. Thanks for the " update ". This is what some of us are trying to say here. He posts mystery pics but won't follow thru on where and when and why on purpose just so those of you with millions of shares can salivate a little more. I just see it as cruel and throwing red herrings whenever he can. I wouldn't be surprised if he's on this board masquerading as a pumper under a new name. LOL.
Just off the top of my head, Here's examples of pics posted that led to more questions with no answers:
PUBLIX sign held by his daughter.
OMNI Hotel Cooler Inventory List.
Van parked next to Starbucks.
Van pic in BLUE asking shareholders what the other Van color should be. ( wheres the new van again? )
Mascot Animation clip that went no where.
Shipping Receipt of two cases sent to IHOP.
Pic of Rico waiting at the desk of IGA with case of product.
A cue card read SELF introduction of Reynolds with stammering and mumbling over the details of the benefits of non sugary drinks and "such".
Pic of newly designed PLKD TSHIRT with no actual public offering of said shirts.
A big ol' truck with a pallet of something and a whole lot of other stuff WAAAAAY in the back. Also looks like he's cleaning out his storage space unit along with those pallets.
Think about this tho. Even IF the PPS goes to .0004 or .0008, don't you think just about EVERYONE will sell those shares to get their $$ back? YES.
This is the worst. And up until I learned about Pleasant Kids and how Rico does " business ", I never knew CEOs were allowed to scam shareholders the way Rico has.
Well at least there's news. LOL. You know I just come on this board to watch the circus now. I've come to accept that my $$ is gone. Its not that much anyway. So I can't help but laugh at the absolute absurdity of the photo promotions , for example, the whack job animation on that Raccoon, ( what happened with that anyway?) the BPA bottle Tshirts, ( where are those for sale?), and now 2 entire pallets are being shipped to California. I mean, are they in California being delivered to a storage space there? Who ordered the two pallets?
Nah, just post a pic of the ass end of a truck and get some likes on FB. That'll make everyone feel better.
They should add a new mascot. A horse taking a a huge poo because that's what all this is. Wow.
OH MAN. LOL. What a fabulous important photo for shareholders. I mean, if you're going to take a pic, sure, let's wait until the pallets are indiscernable and lost in the shadows of the boxes and whatever else is shoved way back there.
SMDH!!!!!!
think he meant .16
When was our historical week again? That was stated when they took a photo trying to get someone to take their water donation at IGA.
Well maybe when Rico gets back from Spring Break we'll have more pics of BPA bottles on a cruise ship. Maybe in their kitchen coolers. LMAO
Multi Million Deal in Christmas Eve was very clear!
Vendor at AG Food show was very clear!
Official Sponsor of BattleFrog was very Clear!
Is Rico on holiday or something? Curious too if he's prevented the company's FB page from receiving comments while he's gone. So he can focus on his "business" without having to delete posts / questions every ten minutes. It's been surprisingly quiet.
But maybe he left a clue in his last post.????
"Stay active friends."
You know whose slogan that sounds like? Dannon Yogurt! That's right!!
OMG, maybe it's a buy out from Dannon for their water line!
Figured we needed a new red herring here.
Their inventory? Don't you remember? He has some at a rental storage space and I'm sure the van is used as storage space as well.
Nothing has changed in the past 6 months since I've bought in. I came to this board back then, and read a few pumps and articles and made the rookie decision to buy a million shares.
So as an outsider, after reading all the PRs, empty forward looking statements, being banned from FB for asking what happened with Battlefrog, the multi million deal announced right before Christmas Eve, the staged photos of the van being associated with whatever building its parked next to, storing water in hot storage spaces, trying to ride on Karents b list celebrity coat tails, the poor excuse for mascot animation, the Tshirts that promote the bottle-not the product, the missing MOU and share structure, Reynolds introducing himself thru his webcam reading a cue card that he clearly didn't even practice beforehand, various photos of Rico offering water to big leagues like IGA and IHOP BUT THEN NO FOLLOW THRU as to what outcome came from that, it's really funny how some believe this is going to get picked up by ANYONE other than shareholders and new unsuspecting rookies.
I'm wondering why Reynolds couldn't just talk freely instead of reading from his computer screen. Rehearse a little and speak about yourself instead of reading what Rico wrote. It's a little too staged and appears it was taped on the spot just to appease naysayers. How about just promote for Pleasant Kids and do it right?
Feb 7th, Rico posted that a new website was coming soon. I hope it's worth the wait.
He's not with Summit Beverage any longer. And Liquid Lightning, for example, hasn't been updated since June 2014. At least their last free case giveaway was June 2014 via their FB.

That is Reynolds' Linked In Profile.
If you click on the links next to his profile photo, you'll see two links reading "Company Website".
One is www.drinkherbal.com
The other is www.llenergy.com
Click on the links next to his linked in profile. "Business website". Links to a webpage promoting other energy drinks.
Well I think we all want a rising pps. Battlefrogs is moot point. We all are trying to look ahead but it's been ....difficult. And you're not making it easier by calling "fake foul" or blaming others for something that was obviously squashed by Battle Frogs. Period. And if anyone contacted Battlefrog with "false proof" of whatever against Rico, I'd think that Battlefrogs would do their own DD if they felt it was something outlandish. But that's all the time I will spend on your "crying wolf" blah blah blah. Tell you what, two way record that conversation you're going to have and then upload it and give us all the audio. Mr. Detective.
Even his fans are Fb are becoming more inquisitive about "news". I mean after all, this is a historical week. Yes it sure is. Cmon Rico, just show them a pic of your daughter in a BPA Tshirt! Give them something!!
I would venture to guess that tomorrow Rob will post another photo of brown boxes stacked high for " online order excitement " giving a certain someone on here a reason to post and repost that photo all day long. Maybe he'll pair it up with more cheerleaders drinking his product or another photo of Karent doing her social work. New van because delivery demand is high? Well where exactly is PK water and juice being SOLD? Besides the one 7-11. And online. Did I miss the names of these new stores showing pics of bottles in the racks?
I assume he's been reported to the SEC. Right??
Looking at the chart, I predict .075+ kiss in the next hour.
Why do we only see photos of a case of water in random coolers in mystery nameless market/shops. Rico is so big on projecting the Marriot, starbucks, AG food show, Battlefrog when he has no deal or contract. Yet he posts photos of his product in actual stores but fails to mention the stores by name? Maybe shareholders live in south Florida and want to pick up a juice straight from the shelf and not wait 4 weeks from Amazon. But how can we find it if he doesn't announce where he just dropped off new product to sell? We see the IGA freebie drop off, but that's not for sale. Is he just sneaking into shops and lining up 8 bottles in the slot and taking a cell pic and then Sneaks back out? Lol.
So how many people are allowed to post on his FB now? 6? 7? Lol.
This has just become entertainment now. I can't even allow myself to get mad. I bought the stock. I fell for the fluffy stuff. And my eyes have been opened in a way that I now know there REALLY IS a sucker born every minute. And I was one of them. Thankfully, it's not that huge of a loss. But if this stock were legit, I'd be buying my own island in a year.
Even if he's using storage spaces ( UGH ), I would assume that the bottled, unopened product would at least be stored in a cool dry space. As suggested by all juice companies. Maybe those units have AC. But man, it's one thing to " do what you have to do " to manage your inventory. But some things are better left unsaid. And unposted. Someone take the camera phone away from Robert.
Seriously though, someone please tell me that not a storage unit. Could it be a delivery entrance? Please?? I'll be really dumbfounded if that IS a storage unit AND RICO thought it was a good photo to post. Assuming we would think he's at a store?? I mean please tell me he's not that dumb and he doesn't think we're that dumb.
TELL ME ITS A STORE.
Well Rico doesn't have a warehouse. And that pic is from last year. he's given all that away by now.
Why would he post that new pic?! Not sure if it really IS a storage space, but seriously. Posting a pic of the van with doors open holding some cases is supposed to do what? Why not post the van actually delivering to a store? Or is the Van simply being used to free up some floorspace at Ricos garage?
Watch, i bet in a few hours max, that pic will be taken down. Especially since someone already asked if he was at a storage facility. Nonetheless, that person will be blocked from asking more questions.
New FB pic of Rico taking some cases out of his storage unit...er warehouse. WOW.
I appreciate how he posts pics other big name companies' vans....is that Rico's way of saying he's just like Coca Cola and Vitamin Water because he's got a Van too? It appears his marketing strategy is to cut corners, and just go BIG and try to regurgitate everything he sees the big companies do. Only problem is, those big companies are big for a reason and have the $$. Their own $$. And they have an actual marketing department, not someone who's making appointments for them to drop off a case of water and juice and soon to be forgotten about. I'd venture to say that if ANYONE else besides Rico was doing the hand sample deliveries, we'd probably have a better chance for a call back.
I can only imagine the letter of intent Rico sent to IHOP Marketing with those samples.
"Dear Ihop-
Thank you for alowing Pleasant Kids to be sampelled by your Marketing Team Personal. We pride ouself on having BPA free bottles and we have a brand new van in which to do deliverys. It's Blue and has Doctor to the Stars Karent sierra on it. Where going to get another van soon. As soon as my FB followers tell me which color they like best. Oh and our website will be changed to. I really like how "Honest Tea Company" dose there site and my FB fans said I should design it to be like that one. So that's next. We have our product in a 7-11 and are in talks to be in 299 more really soon. Blessing and have a wonderfull pleasant kid day.
-Robert Rico"
Welp we know IHOP marketing got the product. And I guess it'll take a few months of people hyping on THAT dream to realize it's all a poor CEOs excuse to keep his fans foaming at the mouth. I mean he might as well drop a few cases off on a celebrity's lawn and take a photo of that too.
There's 5300 7-11s out there as well. how many are selling Pleasant Kids product again??
Yes. The forward looking statement. . . I basically learned a lot about what to avoid in the future by going thru the basic training of how to get sucked in to a scam share selling stock with PLKD. But hey I'm learning. Not everything you see in Print quoted by a CEO of a new company is true. Because of that forward looking statement. I actually learned that 5 PRs ago.
But it didn't start at "this" level. It's drastically fallen to this level. And doesn't have strong enough kegs to stand taller. For a while I predict. IMO. So WRONG. . . IMO.
