WOW, if this is true that is really interesting! So a certain person that keeps threatening SEC action tried to get millions of shares to be quiet? Is that legal? Hmmm....
Obviously the company's goal is to reach the people who DON'T know about CBD as that would be the smarter move. What are the conventions? A bunch of people who ALREADY know about CBD and are looking for wholesale opportunities, etc. Maybe they would do that with their distributor program in the near future as that would be a more targeted move.
Any internet marketer knows this...I just wonder why all these geniuses don't take the company's challenge and compete with them if they think they can do better?
Actually, back in 2015 they DID sell on Amazon (I remember seeing it) and I swear I remember in the same year they had a release or public statement that said Amazon was not cost-effective, or it may have been mentioned in a conversation with their support staff I had back then.
Either way, they've done it! If it was profitable, they'd still be doing it!
Amazing...
I know how to take responsibility for my investment and not self-sabotage it by talking negative and positive in several bipolar daily rants.
If I lose all my money I blame no one but myself, however, I have faith that this stock will rise and they will do something within the industry to beef up revenues and turn this around!
They have AMAZING products that have helped me and so many people in my life that I have turned on to their products.
Have you tried ALL of their products, Smokey? Do you purchase from them regularly? Have you done your part in spreading the word about their great products to others and turned others onto their products?
What actual (not imaginary) facts can you present to prove they are scammers? That phrase gets thrown around so loosely these days...everyone's a scam or a scammer. lol
I'm a long and in at 0.009 at the lowest, I believe in this company and always have. I'm holding and not complaining every day. I have better things to do than spend all my time psychoanalyzing every intricacy of the company.
They straight up said in the last PR that if you think you can run the company better, go for it and compete with them! I think some of the chest pounding, so-called experts on here should go ahead and take them up on the challenge.
Let's see you do it better and come back and throw it in all our faces when you do...
Good luck lol
There are so many "chest pounders" on this board who think they can do it better...he's right if you think you can do it better then go ahead!
I love it!
Important for the "FUD" Mongers... THE HEMP INDUSTRY IS NOT EFFECTED!
Important point from the below link...
"Third, the memo does not affect the industrial hemp industry. The 2014 Farm Act explicitly removed industrial hemp from the definition of marijuana under federal law. A detailed discussion of industrial hemp and the Farm Act is beyond the scope of this article. Suffice it to say that the memo does not change anything about industrial hemp."

Should probably "Sticky" this and all those who want cheap shares, now is the time to get them while there is blood in the streets!
Yeah, I just asked them about the site a few days ago and they said they are on the last stretch of the front-end site and the backend application is currently under development too.
Bloody day for MMJ today but it's been a fun couple weeks!
What a great analysis! lmao!
New HLT Pets video, check it out!
Actually if you share the same video that is uploaded as a post on their Facebook account it will get more traction because it auto plays in people's news feeds, etc.

Agree 1,000,000%!
It's got 10 x's the views on Facebook
That would be called emotional investing, which I do not take part in because it means you lose your money most of the time.
I can't even take a $100 Gambler seriously
Wasn't really referring to you (lately) but fair enough, as long as you can name me better MMJ pinksheet that has similar share structure, profits (must be profitable), amazing products, growing divisions, and huge potential upside in at least two different sectors. Would love to hear what company that is...
Arguing for the "suspected" limitations of a company you are supposedly vested in is like betting against your favorite sports team during the Super Bowl...dumb and makes no sense!
I think we have virtually unanimous agreement on this... topdog is very correct in his assessment.
Here is an even better video they just produced...
Your "Moderator Sticky" TOTALLY solidifies your argument of the great marketer you are...what a winning strategy! LMAO!
Definitely your opinion...lmao
Not grasping at anything other than what I know. Have you seen that they advertise through mantis? They run display ads on all the top MJ sites...don't you think if they could do AdWords or FB they would? Many times adwords just doesn't pay out...just cause someone might slip an ad through doesn't mean it's profitable.
I've been told they also do content marketing as well, which is MUCH more effective than running search and display ads in many cases. Sounds like they are doing what is working to me, and again, as a career marketer PAYING FOR ADS DAILY I know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, that HUGE 100,000 searches per month via CBD keywords is really going to be the difference maker. Did you know that showing on the 1st page of a google search, on average, you might get 1/8the the traffic at best and the amount that actually buys is a fraction of that.
Your assessment of their focus and strategy is flawed. Lets leave it to the professionals who are in the trenches, not those comfortably sitting behind their computer looking in. It's too easy to judge from an outside perspective.
Since to this point you speak no knowledge of actually running ads on any of these Networks, you may not know that ads get approved all the time only to be later disapproved for not meeting their advertiser policies. I have run ads on almost all networks that have been approved and then a day, week or even a month later been disapproved. Just because you see an ad running does not mean it meets the advertising networks policies. Many times the ads are automatically approved at first and then a secondary review is given later to make sure it meets guidelines.
Yes, what you are seeing are ads from a cannabis-friendly ad Network called mantis. You need to just stop with this because I know what I'm talking about firsthand and I've spent money doing it.
You may see an ad or two saying "CBD" from time-to-time but they get shut down. I'm not answering "emotionally", I'm answering from experience because I'm a marketer (by trade) and I joined their affiliate program and tried getting ads approved dozens of times on FB, Google, and twitter ads!
I've actually spent my own money trying to promote their products and it's the hardest product I've ever tried to get approved.
But you haven't done that, have you?
You are 100% incorrect about it only being amazon...show me a CBD ad where it shows CBD mentioned in the ad on google or facebook.
You are not correct, they sell CBD oil and any product labeled CBD Oil or mentioned in the ad will get their ads declined. Hemp only is ok, CBD is not. Their products are labeled "Hemp Oil".
The products you have seen have completely stripped "CBD" from their labels and website. That is kind of an oxymoron...not sure how you can build a long-term campaign when your customers don't truly know what you're selling. Plus when the ad networks really find out what your selling, they'll shut you down anyway. Obviously Ballas and company have a better plan for long-term growth.
Not this investor, you speak for all investors? I know others that are taking the same long approach as I am. Sucks for you!
Sounds good! You should contact them and tell them you'll provide your superior marketing knowledge for a product that cannot be marketed like ANY other product (can't be marketed on google, facebook, etc because it's banned), and tell them how you can create millions of dollars in sales with your knowledge...totally FREE!
See what James Ballas says back to you...being here for 2+ years vested in this stock, I've done my research and know for a fact that he has created over $100 million in sales revenue for other brands.
I'm here because I know this company will do the same...I just have patience. It's a rare commodity on this board.
Also there were actual facts stated in that press release regarding the extremely low amount of traffic searching for those keywords, and an explanation as to why does not their main focus.
Why are you so negative? They were even just mentioned by Forbes as being a top supplier of CBD products? I'm not sure what would be good enough for you...
I just don't understand the love affair with SEO, seo for this Niche is weak!
Did you pay any attention to their last press release talking specifically about this? They specifically stated that the monthly searches for these terms are extremely low and that is why they are focusing their time on other forms of high-quality traffic. Do a little keyword research yourself and you will see... All the top terms probably do not have more than 150,000 total monthly searches combined.
They even put some stats in that press release stating that the top term, CBD oil, only gets 74000 monthly searches.
I know what you are going to say, that they at least need to be trying to capture those searches, but in reality I think they have the right strategy by focusing on other forms of high-quality larger amounts of traffic that they can control... because even if they wrote some content articles and started ranking in those terms, even being on the first page they would only capture a fraction of the search traffic.
They know what they are doing...
Agree 100%
Have you guys even bothered searching the company again lately? The website is starting to show up on Google again so they obviously have done some things. Having knowledge of SEO myself, I do know that it takes some time for Google to start indexing the page and arranging the most popular Pages underneath the main listing. It looks like it is in that process right now. Their basic SEO is definitely improving.
Haha...yes that is a good pin!
That is grrrrrreat! Thx for sharing!
Oh my God, LOL I almost forgot about those!
This is a stupid sticky
In other words "I expect them to be 100% perfect because in order to be successful, you have to be perfect. No mistakes can be made and when they are made, screaming from the rooftops of how bad they messed up is the answer to fixing it. Because they will never know if I don't tell them, etc......"
