Here is some brief DD that is current. This will at least get you started on your DD. Always good to read the 10K as well!
Taken from Reggie's recent blogs, last shareholder letter, and a link to the recent 10K filing
Reggie’s Quotes:
http://www.reggiejames.org/2011/12/trip-focus-future/
We are anticipating more info on this partnership per his blog
“Meeting Aderra for the first time was such a powerful event that it will no doubt prove pivotal as we move forward and I will dedicate more time on this particular aspect of the trip in my next blog – very exciting.”
Quote from previous shareholder letter:
"We’re also working with Aderra to identify a Billboard artist to endorse our products bringing an established fan base, other artists and the wider creative community into RTG’s suite of products. Artists like 50 Cent have already demonstrated the power of endorsements and we intend to emulate this success for all of our benefit."
Steve Baughman is the co-principal at Aderra. Steve, a Grammy-winning audio "genius," is the key to the talent access. He brought in 50-Cent, Lady GaGa, all of Universal Music . 50 Cent is God Father to one of Steve's children. An example how Steve has developed personal relationships with his clients

Reggie’s Quote:
This particular quote is in reference to the new analytics platform the company is developing. If executed could bring in many top billboard artists as clients
"So, where are we today? Well, testing of beta in a controlled environment has started and we hope to roll this out to selected partners at the tail-end of January"
Reggie's last quote
Looking for news soon
"We are moving forward with reinforcing support and will have some great news later this month. Thank you for sticking with us."
10K Filing
http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=50434289
After the last two sessions I would have to sadly agree with this post.
Like I said I am hoping it's all tax loss selling which makes perfect sense. If I were not trying to help I would have been selling some shares here to off set gains I had in other stocks and turn a imminent tax bill into a tax write off. Instead I will pay the tax and hold my shares.
Let's keep in mind Reggie said in his last blog he had some good news coming soon. So far I am impressed that Reggie is no BS so let's see what comes. If the market begins to trust he is straight up forward looking thinking will be taken seriously and prs will have a stronger effect.
I sure hope its stll tax loss selling and not the note in the 10K. Dated dec 8th. If just tax loss things should change early January.
You are correct. Every single 10Q and 10K that was ever put out has the current OS as of days before the actual filing in the first couple of paragraphs.
Great profile pic lol...
I see the most feared word in penny land was thrown out on the board with no reference points. On a stock under a 200m OS. I will deliver what I firmly believe are the facts on this topic.
The company to the best of my knowledge isn’t currently planning or even contemplating a reverse split for that matter. I wish they were let me explain. Their plan all along is to execute their business plan to the fullest potential. They always entertained the expectation they could move up in exchanges if certain events were to take place. They would need strong revenues, profit, and financial backing. A RS would be the obvious best route to prepare your equity structure to achieve a higher listing if these achievements were to take place. Institutional backing would be a key essential ingredient to ensure a successful safe split. If we executed all of the above I would support such action and hope the shareholders would. Linda made reference to a RS in the past only if these events took place, in that context only. Reggie’s last blog stated he met with a very large hedge fund when in the US. One that was introduced through Linda.
Reggie’s quote:
“Another meeting in New York was with a wonderful and charming individual who heads one of the most enterprising private hedge funds based out of New York that has its eye on application of technology on a global basis.”
This hedge fund could very well become involved as an investor “if” the company executed to a certain level. Linda Perry is a well connected individual as most know. A huge asset most pennies are not afforded. Reggie alluded to that in his last blog by mention of the level of individuals and firms she connected him with. Reggie now needs to take advantage of these connections and capitalize on them. Something no one in the past has been able to do. I am very confident in Reggie’s abilities. If he executes, I believe we will have some influential individuals and business’s jumping on board. One big name could send this stock on a ride north fast. Let’s not forget that client list of our partner Aderra. Reggie is working hard to make them clients of RTG.
Reggie’s Quotes:
“Meeting Aderra for the first time was such a powerful event that it will no doubt prove pivotal as we move forward and I will dedicate more time on this particular aspect of the trip in my next blog – very exciting.”
“Linda Perry had made significant in-roads over the last 12 months to not only (re)establish relationships with major investors but also major names in music and technology. On top of this, it was these major heavyweights we were to meet alongside some people we had already spoken with tentatively and who had been kept warm waiting for – you know what.”
“To keep this short and to the point, we met with several major, successful names,”
The purpose of the info in my post is not to create the speculation that the company would be ready for a new exchange anytime soon or ready to get institutional backing. It’s to explain why Linda has discussed the topic of RS in the past. Anyone that has asked the companies thoughts on this topic and has knowledge of Linda’s thoughts on this clearly knows the reasons and context in which it was discussed. To suggest otherwise is not accurate information.
However, speculation that we “may be” closing in on big clients/partners in or associated with the music industry could prove to be accurate. Reggie’s blogs has begun to restore my confidence. If we gain partners or clients in the music industry it surely brings life back to the billboard artist endorsement as well. This event has been planned with the help of Steve at Aderra for many months now. Reggie needs to execute and seal the deal.
Reggie’s Quote:
So, where are we today? Well, testing of beta in a controlled environment has started and we hope to roll this out to selected partners at the tail-end of January
Quote from previous shareholder letter: It’s clear from Reggie’s recent blogs this relationship is as strong as ever, nothing has changed
We’re also working with Aderra to identify a Billboard artist to endorse our products bringing an established fan base, other artists and the wider creative community into RTG’s suite of products. Artists like 50 Cent have already demonstrated the power of endorsements and we intend to emulate this success for all of our benefit.
Steve Baughman is the co-principal at Aderra. Steve, a Grammy-winning audio "genius," is the key to the talent access. He brought in 50-Cent, Lady GaGa, all of Universal Music . 50 Cent is God Father to one of Steve's children. An example how Steve has developed personal relationships with his clients
Wait a minuet I never said they will get it all together. I said I am confident they will begin to execute and hope they will get it all together : )
Why would you be watching each day for a launch of the platform Reggie has been blogging about and showing to people in the industry? He clearly stated he expected a beta launch with partners by the end of January. Lets see what happens around that time as far as a launch is concerned. The stock did get taken down on relatively low volume. Not that many new shares were added. However I agree its a tough hole to dig out of being this low. It will take big news. I hope we get it
I think you know by now I respect your posting very much. I always read what you post and take you very seriously. My hope is that the company can begin to show you good reason to get interested again.
I agree with this post although I have one comment. I assume you refer to Audigist and Cloud Channel sites going down. Reggie did comment on that as soon as he knew what happened for sure. He was in The US when this situation first occurred I know I was sitting with him discussing it. Come to find out a bit later as I posted to shareholders here , there was some sort of attack on the sites. Its likely the nature of the attack that prevents him from elaborating any further at this point. They did get Audigist back up very quickly using another domain. That was a very good job on their part. Cloud Channel was just a holding page so its no big deal.
I think i have posted this before. I own Cloud-Channel.com. I have always bought and sold domains, it was a part of the company I owned. I still constantly search and sometimes bid for already owned domains. At the time I bought this domain I asked the CEO about it and he said he was not interested in it. The company lost nothing except the Audigist domain at this point. I am not certain they won't get it back because I don't know the details.
Hope that helps a bit
One thought on Reggies salary. That is what he was being paid prior to acquiring him and his company. I believe he will prove to be worth every penny. The final terms of the acquisitions were in the 10K as well and I think everyone agrees they were most favorable to shareholders. I am looking forward to ending this year as far as RTGV is concerned and seeing execution in 2012
Hello nitwit...Looks like a chart that can turn into one heck of a bounce especially if some good developments take place. Your posts are most always a hoot. : )
I did inquire once again regarding the TA. They indeed changed their policy this summer and do not give the OS out for any clients. With that info and the 10K showing a minimal increase in OS its fact RTG did not order a gag on the TA. Very credible TA by the way. A real asset to have a good TA.
The OS has gone up a little over 20M shares coming up on in a years time. I think that is safe to say its one of the best jobs handling equity in the pennies. Especialy the cheaper ones . Its been a rough year to boot with the next year showing potential for DC to expand revenues and partnerships. I hope they can keep handling their equity this well. The challenge is more difficult with a very low share price. Hopefully that will start to improve
Put out a statement? They just did by filing a SEC 10K. DC was audited as well. What more of a statement can anyone ask for. My suggestion is to read the 10K yourself. DO NOT RELY ON POSTERS POSTINGS OF HOW THEY UNDERSTAND FILINGS. If you do not understand something contact a professional. You could e-mail your question to be presented to the company. Surely they would respond.
Exactly. Let's get through this tax season then hopefully the company can pump up the volume
Does this Lewis CK not show Reggie was right on in his assesment of cloud CHANNEL? It shows me his idea to create a new platform from the CC technology which focuses on Analytics and social media is spot on. Let's keep in mind the potential of the new platform is just as strong. I hope they also find some other tech within that represents further longer term potential.One that may require a joint venture or new partnership.
Question is how many for the acquisitions which were expected. And should have been already figured in because it was clearly stated in filings since summer a year ago. Only 40 M including acquisitions beats everyones estimates by a long shot. Good news
One thing I can say with certainty. Everyone involved is working very hard to get this thing turned around.
I hope you do a 5 bagger early 2012
I may be down big but I have not lost anything because this company is still fully operating and fully reporting. This tax loss season is killing this stock. Meaning if Reggie and company deliver early next year these cheap shares could be golden especially if the stock fully recovers and beyond at some point. Reggie set some time frames down. One big one. Beta testing with partners by the end of January.
Last blog stated some good news coming by months end. Perhaps they should wait for Jan 1

US Trip – A Focus Toward the Future
Posted by Reggie James | Filed under Music Marketing, RTG Ventures
As you are all probably aware by now, I returned about 2 weeks ago from a trip to the US that saw me take-in Los Angeles and New York.
I wanted to take this opportunity to share some the experience with you and more importantly outline the exciting new opportunities arising from some of the meetings.
Why the trip?
In my audio I talked about learning from the last 12 months and our 1st year. My last two blogs looked at everything leading toward the new technology and positioning our company in a brave new world.
The blog today, is looking at my trip to the US and how it would truly test the new concept from people in the music and entertainment business, as well as seasoned technology pros and investors who had held on to the coat tails of the silicon valley dragon.
For me, New York is a given. It is the historical soul of the advertising industry and as such, was core in the agenda. Meeting those that share an entrepreneurial vision of what we are looking to achieve is crucial. Also, re-establishing links with people who we had approached tentatively a few months back was also important in outlining the RTG roadmap for future growth.
So with meetings and schedules prior to Thanksgiving, it transpired that the first leg of the journey would be Los Angeles.
So why LA? Simple. To meet with like-minded people and give the technology platform an airing with the most prolific individuals within the entertainment industry, it was an opportunity too good to pass.
On top of this, we have deep relationships in LA. Meeting Aderra for the first time was such a powerful event that it will no doubt prove pivotal as we move forward and I will dedicate more time on this particular aspect of the trip in my next blog – very exciting.
Again, though the reasons for the trip may be obvious, It was key to capture the hearts and minds on both coasts to make the trip worthwhile.
Testing Concepts
The whole purpose of the trip was multifarious. I had been (and still am) running the agency Digital Clarity, for the best part of 2011 until recent months where I had taken the helm of the technology, to review and bring into a modern arena.
I have spoken in detail already about two things:
•Major changes in the music and technology arena – commoditization, engagement and scale.
•The shift in our technology offering and the need to address the changing market ahead of the curve.
On top of having to re-position RTG’s proposition, the trip to LA and NY would be the litmus test that was required to see whether the prototype, concepts and ideas for our new platform would fly or be shot down in flames.
Los Angeles
Linda Perry had made significant in-roads over the last 12 months to not only (re)establish relationships with major investors but also major names in music and technology. On top of this it was these major heavyweights we were to meet alongside some people we already spoken with tentatively and who had been kept warm waiting for – you know what.
If New York is where the money is and the San Francisco/Bay area is where the technology was being built, then Los Angeles was the meat in this musical sandwich.
To keep this short and to the point, we met with several major, successful names, and with all I outlined and described the expanded technology offering to the industry which would allow us to be First Mover. The First Mover position is not said lightly. It is a position that is both coveted and difficult to achieve. Yet that observation was made by one of the toughest guys in the sector.The dots were connected."
After crossfire questioning, it was apparent that what I was describing to them was not only something that was needed but would also allow the music business to look at data to make business decisions. This was no longer social media, but social business.
After a gruelling session with one of the savviest technology, music and social investors in town, I was greeted with the words, “Tell me more, this is genuinely investable…!”
Without question, the idea of streamlining our offering and focussing on revenues was unequivocally accepted by all, as well as the wholehearted acceptance of our view on the future. The confidence of knowing what we have in development, augmented with a digital marketing agency both working in harmony, was proving a potent value proposition.
With these thoughts firmly embedded in my mind, I was soon leaving the sunshine of LA and heading for more seasonal climes in the Big Apple.
New York
New York in all its glory with the holiday season round the corner is quite a site. The buy-in in Los Angeles was key to the next leg of the tour.
In New York, my first meeting was with a dynamic duo that runs one the most successful ambient media companies which feeds directly into the leisure and luxury brand arena. Former high level music men, they immediately saw the value in our repositioning and approached us with a likely scenario of how we could work together. As they outlined, finding ‘data value’ against their offering was now becoming crucial to their business as well as giving them an edge, not just in the US but in the important emerging markets of China, India and South America.
Another meeting in New York was with a wonderful and charming individual who heads one of the most enterprising private hedge funds based out of New York, that has its eye on application of technology on a global basis. The discussions centred around intelligent debate about the global, political climate and its effects on technology and infrastructure. This led to how technology with a human face is the right approach in a more socially connected planet.
Partnering for Success
Expanding Digital Clarity’s brand is one of the most important discussions that we had whilst in New York. Digital Clarity’s DNA runs deep in the evolution of digital marketing. Emulating this to the next level, without diluting its offering led to a discussion in a meeting that is currently being explored. Though still in its infancy, it has the possibility of helping the company take a big leap forward in establishing a footprint in the US for the Digital Clarity brand.
The Missing Link
The learning over the year and the rapid development of digital technologies in the past decade or so has radically changed the way in which we can interact with the music industry. Likewise, the impact of social media upon the music industry has also made it much easier for musicians to interact with their fans. Having the ability to have all your music, video, imagery and data managed, and reported in one interface is not unique. Having reports that makes sense of data from over 30 social and music platforms is powerful. But having an algorithm that gives you the ability to model forecast and make sense of engagement & sentiment that in turn, indexes against commercial return – suddenly becomes very exciting.
In a recent report looking at key findings of their fifth annual survey, global management consulting firm McKinsey & Company, found that there was a large rise in adoption rates of social technologies. They also noted that levels of reported benefits remain high when organizations use social tools for internal purposes but have also increased among those that use them for communicating with customers or for integration with partners and suppliers.
This report and the level of investment that is being ploughed into the types of technology our company is engaged in, is not only a testament to our vision but paint a bright future, endorsed by the meetings in Los Angeles and New York.
The Future is Bright
Unlike before, it transpired that everyone I met and who I’ve have highlighted above, could see the need for this new platform. It also became rapidly clear that if we were serious about our business, RTG would need to position itself as the pulse at the heart of this conurbation where decisions were made.
Next Steps
We are busy. Tablet based interfaces alongside an app are in the offing alongside a website platform that will give users a login into the powerful pulse gateway. Where possible, I will keep everyone updated to the progress, partners and opportunities that continue to arise as we build toward 2012. We are moving forward with reinforcing support and will have some great news later this month. Thank you for sticking with us.

Strong DD here. Reggie and Digital Clarity have an incredible opportunity to launch globally. Aderra can bring some of the sexiest names in as clients which would be huge for this stock. If Reggie is able to deliver the technology that he has demonstrated to them it would certainly bring life back to the billboard artist endorsement plan. Reggie said in his last blog we will be getting more info on the Aderra partnership soon.
Some additional thoughts on float which plays very strongly into what you state. Many times valuations on penny stocks are far from accurate. Many times a cap is significantly higher than it should be and visa versa. A decent float can help valuations significantly for the simple fact it will trade better and move on good news I certainly prefer the majority of shares restricted rather than in the float. No brainer
Very accurate post The float is an important number too. More for the traders versus longer term investors.
There is no spin in my post. I posted info on what I was told ad DD on transfer agents in general. This is old news, however its good to discuss as I don't recall it being much of a topic here. Perhaps I will learn something new.
The topic in posts yesterday discussed two key points
1. Did RTG gag the TA or did the TA change policy.
2. Does the TA give OS out for any other clients?
I was told this is standard policy for them now. I will write the company to see if it can be included in the statement they are making to callers. Bottom line will revisit topic to dettermine for sure if they do or don't give OS out for other clients. If they don't as I was told before then I see no cause to change the ta over that issue for reasons I
previously mentioned.
If they do give it out for other clients then its impossible to say with any certainty that RTG did not gag the TA. I would assume they did . Either way not a game changer for me.

As they outlined, finding ‘data value’ against their offering was now becoming crucial to their business as well as giving them an edge, not just in the US but in the important emerging markets of China, India and South America.
Another meeting in New York was with a wonderful and charming individual who heads one of the most enterprising private hedge funds based out of New York, that has its eye on application of technology on a global basis. The discussions centred around intelligent debate about the global, political climate and its effects on technology and infrastructure. This led to how technology with a human face is the right approach in a more socially connected planet.
Partnering for Success
Expanding Digital Clarity’s brand is one of the most important discussions that we had whilst in New York. Digital Clarity’s DNA runs deep in the evolution of digital marketing. Emulating this to the next level, without diluting its offering led to a discussion in a meeting that is currently being explored. Though still in its infancy, it has the possibility of helping the company take a big leap forward in establishing a footprint in the US for the Digital Clarity brand.
The Missing Link
The learning over the year and the rapid development of digital technologies in the past decade or so has radically changed the way in which we can interact with the music industry. Likewise, the impact of social media upon the music industry has also made it much easier for musicians to interact with their fans. Having the ability to have all your music, video, imagery and data managed, and reported in one interface is not unique. Having reports that makes sense of data from over 30 social and music platforms is powerful. But having an algorithm that gives you the ability to model forecast and make sense of engagement & sentiment that in turn, indexes against commercial return – suddenly becomes very exciting.
In a recent report looking at key findings of their fifth annual survey, global management consulting firm McKinsey & Company, found that there was a large rise in adoption rates of social technologies. They also noted that levels of reported benefits remain high when organizations use social tools for internal purposes but have also increased among those that use them for communicating with customers or for integration with partners and suppliers.
This report and the level of investment that is being ploughed into the types of technology our company is engaged in, is not only a testament to our vision but paint a bright future, endorsed by the meetings in Los Angeles and New York.
The Future is Bright
Unlike before, it transpired that everyone I met and who I’ve have highlighted above, could see the need for this new platform. It also became rapidly clear that if we were serious about our business, RTG would need to position itself as the pulse at the heart of this conurbation where decisions were made.
Next Steps
We are busy. Tablet based interfaces alongside an app are in the offing alongside a website platform that will give users a login into the powerful pulse gateway. Where possible, I will keep everyone updated to the progress, partners and opportunities that continue to arise as we build toward 2012. We are moving forward with reinforcing support and will have some great news later this month. Thank you for sticking with us.

US Trip – A Focus Toward the Future
Posted by Reggie James | Filed under Music Marketing, RTG Ventures
As you are all probably aware by now, I returned about 2 weeks ago from a trip to the US that saw me take-in Los Angeles and New York.
I wanted to take this opportunity to share some the experience with you and more importantly outline the exciting new opportunities arising from some of the meetings.
Why the trip?
In my audio I talked about learning from the last 12 months and our 1st year. My last two blogs looked at everything leading toward the new technology and positioning our company in a brave new world.
The blog today, is looking at my trip to the US and how it would truly test the new concept from people in the music and entertainment business, as well as seasoned technology pros and investors who had held on to the coat tails of the silicon valley dragon.
For me, New York is a given. It is the historical soul of the advertising industry and as such, was core in the agenda. Meeting those that share an entrepreneurial vision of what we are looking to achieve is crucial. Also, re-establishing links with people who we had approached tentatively a few months back was also important in outlining the RTG roadmap for future growth.
So with meetings and schedules prior to Thanksgiving, it transpired that the first leg of the journey would be Los Angeles.
So why LA? Simple. To meet with like-minded people and give the technology platform an airing with the most prolific individuals within the entertainment industry, it was an opportunity too good to pass.
On top of this, we have deep relationships in LA. Meeting Aderra for the first time was such a powerful event that it will no doubt prove pivotal as we move forward and I will dedicate more time on this particular aspect of the trip in my next blog – very exciting.
Again, though the reasons for the trip may be obvious, It was key to capture the hearts and minds on both coasts to make the trip worthwhile.
Testing Concepts
The whole purpose of the trip was multifarious. I had been (and still am) running the agency Digital Clarity, for the best part of 2011 until recent months where I had taken the helm of the technology, to review and bring into a modern arena.
I have spoken in detail already about two things:
•Major changes in the music and technology arena – commoditization, engagement and scale.
•The shift in our technology offering and the need to address the changing market ahead of the curve.
On top of having to re-position RTG’s proposition, the trip to LA and NY would be the litmus test that was required to see whether the prototype, concepts and ideas for our new platform would fly or be shot down in flames.
Los Angeles
Linda Perry had made significant in-roads over the last 12 months to not only (re)establish relationships with major investors but also major names in music and technology. On top of this it was these major heavyweights we were to meet alongside some people we already spoken with tentatively and who had been kept warm waiting for – you know what.
If New York is where the money is and the San Francisco/Bay area is where the technology was being built, then Los Angeles was the meat in this musical sandwich.
To keep this short and to the point, we met with several major, successful names, and with all I outlined and described the expanded technology offering to the industry which would allow us to be First Mover. The First Mover position is not said lightly. It is a position that is both coveted and difficult to achieve. Yet that observation was made by one of the toughest guys in the sector.The dots were connected."
After crossfire questioning, it was apparent that what I was describing to them was not only something that was needed but would also allow the music business to look at data to make business decisions. This was no longer social media, but social business.
After a gruelling session with one of the savviest technology, music and social investors in town, I was greeted with the words, “Tell me more, this is genuinely investable…!”
Without question, the idea of streamlining our offering and focussing on revenues was unequivocally accepted by all, as well as the wholehearted acceptance of our view on the future. The confidence of knowing what we have in development, augmented with a digital marketing agency both working in harmony, was proving a potent value proposition.
With these thoughts firmly embedded in my mind, I was soon leaving the sunshine of LA and heading for more seasonal climes in the Big Apple.
New York
New York in all its glory with the holiday season round the corner is quite a site. The buy-in in Los Angeles was key to the next leg of the tour.

No Have to wait for the next filing like everyone else. I do know looking at filings DC and Dom were do their shares for the acquisitions that took place over a year ago. There is a formula there based on revenues current share price etc. But Dom's company BMC was dropped by RTG the Q before so not sure he is even entitled to shares looking at the contents of the past filings. Actually they way I understand them he wouldn't be entitled to shares. Could be wrong. Reggie most certainly is though. Bottom line will be interesting to see what the OS is and however much it went up to whom and where did the shares go. 10K should give us a good idea.
The company has always done a good job managing their equity. Current problem is the low share price. Makes it very difficult to mange so I hope Linda can work some magic. If anyone can she can.
Another strong day here looking very good
The only confirmation in that post is the confirmation of mis information. One needs to speak to the owner or principal of the company not a payed employee. I think you can twist an employee into saying anything. According to my info You will find that this TA is not open for any of its clients. The TA initiated this not RTGV. I suggest for one to call and ask when the owner can be spoken to and confirm.
This is a TA that is credible with no checkered past like many that handle the micro cap arena. One worth hanging onto. Originally I suggested changing TA's. But after further DD on the topic I realized that was not a good move. A good TA is an asset. This issue of getting up to date share counts is not even an issue with major market stocks. It only becomes an issue in pennies especially the ones that tend to dump shares on the market as part of their business plan. I think eventually no TA should be allowed to be open. Think about how un fair that is in the micro cap world especially. The few that call get info that the rest don't get
I like to see them all closed. I don't have to worry about it I don't stay in stocks that I suspect of handling their equity un ethically or poorly.
Lastly RTGV files every quarterly. They are fully reporting which means they are transparent

Wanted to add one thought to the tax loss selling ideas. This is a relatively thinly traded stock. Anyone that decided to sell for tax loss likely started a while ago knowing you can't wait to the last couple weeks. This topic will be history before we know it. "Should be" no cause to sell at these beaten down levels come late December early January
I think a factor in the declined share price and continued selling at least in part is tax loss selling. This stock became a candidate for it because of its serious decline late in the year coupled with the company needing time to re group. In a way this is not bad news. Many that tax loss sell will buy back their shares after 30 days. It would also create a situation at the first of the year that selling is over and we are left oversold. Those that exited because of the abrupt change in direction are likely out now or close.
With the right developments,which I am starting to be more confident of after Reggie's blogs and assuming no abundance of new shares enter the market.
This could be very ripe for a solid rebound in early 2012
Great Blog today by Reggie. I never felt more confident about the potential of the business of RTGV. I see the blog stated we have some good news coming towards end of month and more info on involvement with Aderra coming soon.
Looks like JBII is on the move again
I assume your talking about the kind of meetings that Reggie alluded to in his recent blog. That is a very good question. I am more concerned they could steal info/technology that could be harmful. I requested a response from the company regarding this and posted it below.
If your speaking about promoters during a campaign I don't think any company makes them sign anything. Most promoters would not have info to privileged info. Surely there are exceptions to that such as a firm that writes Pr's for companies or certain advisers. In that case they have a legal responsibility not to use info for illegal trading
The following is from the company
-All persons have signed NDA's
"-RTG Ventures attorney in LA specializes in digital technology and entertainment and many of the meetings actually took place in the firm's offices. Attorney also attended the off site meetings in most cases.
-Likewise in NY for NDA's
-RTG is very well protected and as such has garnered First Mover comments from several people. However, software is rarely patentable in any serious way. (pending doesn't do it). An explosive industry like digital technology and social media can have many companies who have synergy and may be competitive down the road. Being First Mover allays that concern in any substantive way."
Reggie's new blog
http://www.reggiejames.org/2011/12/trip-focus-future/
I will copy the entire blog in a post later to be included as a sticky unless someone beats me to it
Stick to your guns Rawnoc..I think in the end JBII is going to look great.
