Lost control indeed
If you look back in filings. An 8K was filed in September of 2010. That filing made the acquisitions completed. By SEC rule the filing of consolidated financials made DC officially acquired. So by stating DC is only a little over year old I was accurate. A very young public company led by Reggie James. One should do their DD on him.
Good day coming here. Markets were due for a steep decrease looking overbought. News from Europe continually shows the reality that its dangerous water out there especially for banks. Those problems are not going to just go away. Looks like it must get worst before it can get better. Faz is great to ride the waves but I would never go long here
I think every legitimate company that believes their business model can turn into something big has a goal of uplisting. In reality that is a very difficult thing to do and few will ever achieve it. However it should always remain a goal.
First of all the company is just over one year old. I would hardly state that bringing in Digital Clarity ( a profitable company) with the ability to launch a new platform which every company that markets online can use is everything going wrong.
I personally have been here since around January. We have seen the stock near 0.02 to a current low of 0.003's. Pennies do tend to fluctuate dramatically at times. Just recently the stock had near 75% gains on the table for many. This company had a base of near 2k shareholders when I found the stock. I see every reason to continue to support them.
Now we will see what the rest of the year and 2012 brings. It is a very young company with tremendous business potential. And yes it can fail too. We all know the high risk high reward potential in this arena
No one follows anyones lead they make their own decisions. If they do that is a big mistake that will eventually burn you. Its all about weighing all the DD and realizing the penny market fluctuates in a big way. That is why many elect to trade pennies. Others play pennies for the long haul knowing if 1 out of 5 or so that they hold execute their business plan, they make more money then can be made trading
Thanks for that thought and it is exactly how I am approaching this. The company executes on the business plan things will turn out just fine. I am very confident in DC and what the CC tech can do for this small company.
As far as our current valuation you can't buy a shell for this price let alone a fully reporting one. We have been punished quite soundly . The market is basically accounting that everything will go wrong. We will see about that
More angry and frustrated than anything. But that's ok determination is at an all time high
This stock is being treated like it has no business only an idea and not fully reporting. People should listen to all the points in the audio by Reggie. DC is profitable and The CC technology is alive and well. Delayed yes but very much alive. The company is leaner now and focused on growth. I like the business plan and fully expect execution to start taking place in a reasonable amount of time
Very interesting thank you for pointing this out
G-unit was formed by 50 Cent and then followed partnerships in clothing merchandise. Steve at Aderra is well connected to the hip hop artists which are a candidate for endorsements as well as clients once Reggie gets this tech to a certain point. We know 50 Cent is Godfather to one of Steve's children. They currently have no stake in this company but surely would be a strong potential client once the tech was ready for market. The technology can most certainly be a very important tool used when selling merchandise online.
Linda Perry has always filed to sell a small amount of shares but never sold any. Most everyone that has been around for a while knows this. She still has sold no shares is what I am told by her. That can of course be verified by comparing 10K's and 10Q's.
I have not heard an exact date set for Reggie's trip but they were shooting for second week in November. They of course must coordinate with several people that he would be meeting in NY and LA.
Good post as usual. Keep this one piece of info in mind. Reggie has analyzed where cloud Channel is and where it could fit into the market within a more short term approach. He is developing with his own vision. Reggie is identifying what he can and can't compete with. A realistic approach within the means of the company , not a dream. Not scrapping the technology but reshaping. If you read hat12tricks sticky post I think he is close in some regards to where this is heading. The technology Reggie has in mind no one else is doing, as he eluded to in his audio. Certainly Louis CK could benefit from it if it were live. It has the same enormous potential we all dreamed about in CC. I agree what we need is to get the technology to a stage that we don't only have the capability to show to private investors and people well connected in the industries that are our market. We must get it to the point we can show everyone. That may be best done when there is proper partners, alliances,customers, and endorsements ready to go. Hit the ground running so to speak. Our market is truly just about every type of business which was also made mention of in the audio. That in mind the music industry is the launching pad because the company is well connected to billboard artists and influential artists through Aderra and Fionna Bloom as we all know. But as you also say its sad we are not already at the point of going live and or getting the right people on board and public about it. Therefore behind, needing time, and money. But things could start to shape up fast if all goes well. As investors we should all keep our focus on what comes from the US trip Reggie will soon take.
No I missed that I will look it up. Does not surprise me about the TA though. Seems its hard to find a good one. If you have a good one hold on to them
When I say triple or more in value I mean based on real value not what its currently trading at. The current market cap is way too low assuming everything is on the up and up
That is a very good point and certainly could be at play here. Depends on what Terry thinks Real Estate and the steel industry will do in the next 5 years or so. If they rebound this company can triple or more in value
Yes still keeping an eye on things. I still lean towards at some point they will focus on their stock. When they do it will rebound fast. However that could still be a long time. Real estate is down. Steel is down. Good long term investment assuming no foul play happens. Continued filings bode well and reinforces legitimacy.
The moment I read his post I made it a sticky post.
I most certainly will pass what you say onto Reggie. I am pleased you understand Reggie's approach and you are spot on in how you have perceived his initial introduction into the market as a leader of the company. It's Reggie's style.
I am also impressed that when he says something he fully expects it will materialize in a reasonable time frame. If he doesn't we won't hear about it. So far the feedback from the audio has been very strong from many different individuals. There has been some that criticized that there was no meat. We need to create excitement. To that end I think whats best for the shareholders is a straight forward honest approach. With the goal of building credibility over time. If there is nothing at this time that is market moving don't try to make something up. Reggie needed to speak at this time and he did it very well.
There were some strong points made in this audio that represent a potentially strong exciting future for this company. Digital Clarity was profitable. It received no capital infusion by the company. He builds his business models around making money. He will now take the lead in building RTG. The technology that is in house continues to represent the potential for big things. Nothing has changed with that which is a relief. Rather it is shifting to a technology that can bring in revenue rather than creating value through the worth of the technology alone. I think we all were wondering if we lost the tech. We didn't its alive and well but yes we need time. We did pick up a new investor group that has purchased over 8m shares for the long haul on the open market so far.
The trip to LA and NYC will hopefully net some very good news for the company in the short term
We have a much more lean company now. Linda Perry must also step up to the plate and cut corporate costs wherever possible. If anyone can fund us through a transition like this with as minimal dilution as possible she can. We are fortunate to have her working that end of the business. However we are all concerned about that at this time of a failed share price. It becomes a very difficult task.
The article below clearly shows why DC expanding into the US holds massive potential. The talent DC has in house is in great demand. Being someone that has been in this business. I can say its not a matter of being able to get new business for a company of DC caliber in Digital marketing, its a matter of handling all the new business that is available.

Keep in mind Digital Clarity is in the business of advertising online for their clients. One area they are experts in is social media. Many of Reggie's blogs are watched by people in the industry specifically some of their key clients. So while it may seem many of his blogs and articles are not directly about RTG they are about his business which is RTGV.
What he publishes is called thought leadership.
It builds trust and leads to new business.
Twitter and Facebook are not our competition, they are platforms used (in this case) for advertising.
What DC does is help companies use these platforms intelligently.
Also, DC's understanding of these platforms is helping them shape a truly, clever product.
When they get this technology to market that is within CC then I am sure he will blog and write articles about that
Twitter Is Now Following the Music Industry In a Serious Way..

Has Apple missed the social-music train?
http://gigaom.com/2011/10/24/has-apple-missed-the-social-music-train/
The DD is beginning to accumulate regarding the significant opportunity for Digital Clarity in The US. Not only through its core business but through the application of the CC technology within the digital media landscape. Reggie is showing the ability to always be looking ahead of the curve. This article shows the sector is still at its inception. I expect we will be seeing much more about these opportunities as they pertain to DC and given a little time execution of the expansion plans.
I passed the comments of the website onto the company. Dom's profile has now been removed. I believe they are working on a overhaul of the website to better reflect the direction Reggie will lead the company.
Perhaps they are making much more extensive changes to the website behind the scenes.
My last post pretty much says everything I have to say at this point today. I believe if our focus had been on DC and its capability to bring a technology to the music industry and other industries that is needed we would all be at a place we want to be now. We finally have the right focus, The right business model, the right people imo. It would be a travesty to fail with the pieces finally coming together. Our biggest issue now becomes the share price and falling support. As in my last post I have submitted ideas of what we can do now to potentially stop this exodus of shareholders. I expect to see something delivered very shortly that I hope at very least will make shareholders give Reggie and the company a little more time and support. I hope we can once again excite shareholders and bring back some confidence. I have been in a similar business as DC. I know talent when I see it. I am very excited about what the potential is. Not just for the core business of DC but all the potentials we have hoped for in a CC like technology as well.
I don't think it is fair to say we have not heard a single word. There have been three blogs two very specific from Reggie of his plans for RTGV. He is surely very busy planning the expansion into the US as he spoke about. Getting CC in house and working with that tech to bring something to market in the short term is a huge task. I also agree much more specific guidance needs to be given as soon as its possible. In the past year we received a great deal of pr's and the market never really responded. The market never really liked what RTGV was doing. I hold great confidence it can be different this time. If the market likes what RTGV is doing we will all benefit greatly. The market can take a cheap penny and raise it 1000% quickly. One of the first things we need to establish is credibility. The best way to do that is only PR or blog about something you can deliver in a reasonable amount of time. Short order preferably. Once the market realizes Reggie is the kind of leader that executes what he pr's and blogs on then all of a sudden forward looking thinking is taken seriously and responded to. Something we never really ever had the luxury of.
Surely Reggie is working on many things behind the scenes. They may not have reached a level that he is ready to PR about them.I heard a great analogy the other day. It isn't easy being a real company and creating positive change. It's like getting elected versus governing. It's all about execution. Therefore Reggie should be granted some time.
All this being said I completely agree we must do something now. But it is very important what the company does at this point. Any attempt to to put fluff out or PR something pre maturely I would not recommend. Therefore I have submitted 2 ideas to the company. Things we may be/should be able to do now. Both I believe would be met positively. I do feel swift action is needed. I could not feel much more confident about the current direction of the business in RTGV. I believe the core business will grow solidly and Reggie has the capability to bring something to market via the CC technology the billboard artists also need. That would be huge for us. We need to give Aderra's and Fiona Bloom's artists something they need. The stock needs some help now though to give our shareholders some confidence back.
The news on DC spread today. Searching Google I see it went out to many news wires
This blog by Reggie demonstrates Digital Clarity' sophistication and insight. Digital Clarity understands and applies this. It runs through everything DC does and by talking about its new features impresses of the curve -not everybody has access yet to real-time analytics. Understanding the user journey alongside the structure of a sites back end is vita
The Groupon IPO mention brings about more thoughts. They are built on the Ruby on Rails Platform as are Amazon, BBC, Cisco, CNET, IBM and JP Morgan. Other fastgrowing sites like Hulu, Twitter, and Soundcloud also built on the same platform.
Digital Clarity's growing capability now offers development on the Ruby on Rails platform
This is not to be taken lightly. It is another of many examples demonstrating Digital Clarity is on top of the latest technologies.
Apparently Ruby on Rails developers are pretty highly sought after these days:
http://thenextweb.com/insider/2011/08/28/chicagos-great-web-developer-drought/
But even Groupon is having a hard time finding enough developers, as its recent acquisition of Obtiva evinces. Obtiva was a Ruby on Rails shop that Groupon had used as a flexible staffing solution; when it bought the company it had already been using many of its employees, but Groupon needed more. I’ve been told on several occasions that Groupon has an effective corner on the Rails market in Chicago.
How high is the demand for Ruby on Rails developers in the Bay Area / Silicon Valley right now?

Ruby on Rails has become the language of choice for many developers because it has shown to be scalable and has been successfully used in some large corporate development projects and large consumer web services. And so the demand for Ruby on Rails specialists is soaring. Mr Dillon points out that in San Francisco, there are some 700 unfilled Ruby on Rails jobs.
Digital Clarity in the news again. I see this is recent so I expect more news wires to pick up this story as the week progresses.

Searching Digital Clarity or RTG Ventures result in a number 1 position for their websites in the search engines
One of my company's had clients that were known globally. I was not a household name. DC has been in business for 7 years and have done very well. No one can deny that. I believe they are positioned for strong growth in their core business as they expand to the US. I also believe the new technology coming in house represents a solid opportunity to do something very big in this market. With partners like Aderra and Fiona Bloom that potential looks solid
As far as ending up a house hold name I don.t know. Not sure there are many penny stocks that ever reached that status. If they did shareholders will be rich. To fault them for not being a household name and still have clients that are makes no sense
As far as searching for RTGV I think you will find when you search for symbols rather than company name you will get those results often. Research how search engines crawl and index you will see why. But your in a related business right? You should know that
And that is the only aspect of your posting I agree with and trust for that matter. Everyone should certainly do their own DD. Its very intriguing that of all the public companies there are and an abundance in this space DC is the only one you in the entire market you were interested in posting on. Especially intriguing that you have so called info which you posted on two associates in the company
Pay-per-click Advertising
The Duvet and Pillow Warehouse (DAPW) -- www.dapw.co.uk -- is a manufacturer and retailer of premium quality bedding materials. As a vertically-integrated niche market manufacturer with no physical stores, all of its sales leads come from online traffic and an important part of the customer acquisition model is pay-per-click (PPC) advertising. DAPW recently appointed Digital Clarity to manage all of its PPC advertising after a pilot campaign that saw revenues from PPC increase by 89 per cent and led to customer conversions increase by 113 per cent.
Mercedes Benz group marketing manager basically said the opposite of what your reporting from un named sources.
Here is another testimonial right from their client list. I happen to know the business DC is in very well as a former owner of a similar company. I am more than impressed and look forward to strong growth. I still don't understand how you can have info on associates within the company. That info did not come from clients IMO
