You seriously may want to watch the video, or read some charting lessons. There is a huge difference in a dead cat bounce and an uptrend. Maybe you like the term dead cat bounce since you include it in alot of your post.
WOW I didn't realize the VP of Walmart worked for WNBD woohooo!! We should be getting into national accounts left and right with the contacts he must have lol.
Why did they let go of/ or did the Walmart VP at Winning Brands leave recently?
I see you deleted part of this post you are spamming on the board lol. Especially the part that talked about the downtrend the stock is in. I take it that you must not read charts right? You can listen to the two video charts that were posted today, and they will give you some insight into the current UPTREND this stock is having.
If people would have listened to this same nonesense you were posting weeks ago, they would have missed th beginning of the run...It's just starting, and you might want to reconsider your position if you enjoy making money. If not, I suggest you follow your own advice posted below.
wait for possible triple 000s if you feel confident in the long term prospects of the company?
I agree, I believe he will deliver the goods when the time is right, and in a manner that will bring the awareness we have all been waiting for.
You have your opinion, and I have mine. I'm willing to say that when the time comes for Eric to begin an awareness campaign (whether that be tomorrow or next year) it won't be handled by some fly by night news letter site like the one posted by mike.
And, Not so fast my friend, I never siad Eric wouldn't pay for an awereness campaign, because he has mentioned it many times.... My point was the possible reasons for the negative coverage from that particular website. I believe he will do what he said when the time is right.
Excuse me!!! Maybe I need to highlight part of my post, so they can be taken into prescective according to the content. Correction below.
Sometimes companies are approached by these internet stock sites wanting to provide coverage on the company. There is usually a fee for many of them, and we know Eric is not going to pay for this type of coverage at this time. May have something to do with it, but it's just a thought.

There is no problem consolidating in the 4's for a little longer. It took us a week to churn through the 3's and it builds a stronger base. We need some of those 2's and 3's to change hands here in the 4's before we move up. This is building a nice slow uptrend without news, and the higher the base is before news the stronger the move will be.
Many of these shares bought in the lower levels were also bought by longs averaging down, and will be held for much higher ground.
Interesting data from the start of the downtrend to reversal:
Month # shares traded Approx. price range
Jan. 255,906,754 .012 - .015
Feb. 136,860,845 .0105 - .012
Mar. 103,415,597 .01 - .011
Apr. 76,046,810 .011 - .0125
May 46,290,625 .01 - .011
Jun. 119,623,534 .008 - .01
Jul. 81,113,558 .006 - .008
Aug. 119,969,599 .005 - .006
Sept. 103,342,438 .0035 - .005
Oct. 77,275,354 .003 - .0035 (a few in the .002)
These numbers through October shows:
1,086,852,060 billion shares traded this year
618,520,631 million traded over .01 (approx.)
200,737,101 million traded between .006 - .01 (approx.)
119,969,599 million traded between .005 - .006 (approx.)
103,342,438 million traded between .0035 - .005 (approx.)
77,275,354 million traded between .003 -.0035 (a few in the .002)
Given this years trading range vs. volume I believe the accumulation at higher levels will lead to a great move given the right catalyst. JMO
Let me make sure I understand your position since you agreed with my earlier post. Do you consider a rebutal to a negative post (even when right)as bashing? The impression I get from many who post negative opinions, and their post gets rebuted by posters with positive opinions...they claim they are being attacked or bashed.
but you also do not bash a negative poster or posts
My free expression will remain slanted in a positive direction until given a reason for it not to be so, and at that point I will move on. I acknowledge there are many difficult situations that will arise while attempting to build a company the size that WNBD aspires to be. What's important to me is to see they way the handle adversity when it comes their way, and make sure new initiatives for growth are continously being explored. There will always be plenty of negative sentiment on any board to counter the positive information for speculative debate to keep the board balanced over-all. There is a distinct difference in most people regardless of which view they have on the company, and that difference is just part of human nature. Four people can read the same article, and come away with four differing opinions. One may view it as positive, one may view it as negative, and one may see both sides of the coin yet lean toward the negative aspects, while the other will see both sides and lean toward the positive. I am the latter, I see the problems faced in WNBD just as I see the positive potential. I view how they are handling each side, and by choice based on DD I make my decision that the positive out-weights the negative..In summary I see their business model is built to handle adversity, learn from it, and continue to move forward. This gives me the comfort I need to acknowledge the negatives, but not the need to dwell on them.
I wasn't refering to you, or anyone in particular lol. It was the discussion of the morning centering on South Africa and international growth.
I feel comfortable knowing that the majority of the WNBD team is focusing on growth in North America, and Eric has delegated the international expansion initiatives to others. With Lorne Kelly, Steve Fantus, Jay Udell, and others working dilligently in growth in North America, it seems this is the main focus of the company, while Daniela Relja can push the growth internationally.
Commencement of operations between Winning Brands and South Africa is being coordinated by Winning Brands' first International Sales Manager, Daniela Relja. "The international development of Winning Brands will involve the collaboration of associates across many cultures. My focus will be on the management of the multi-cultural nature of a global presence. We are making new Winning Colours friends around the world already, and we have barely even started our outreach. It's not surprising that the world's most versatile cleaning solution would be gaining interest from a wide variety of markets.
I have no idea, but the CC in April 2009 is relevent to the discussion of the day. We can sit here and debate why WNBD sould or shouldn't do things in a certain manner, but unless you understand how practical it is for the execution of their business plan we are wasting our time debating the issue.
The significance of global sales are an extremely important part of Winning Brands business model. Those who don't understand the reasons for global expansion, or those who have never taken the time to listen to the April 2009 conference call should do so. From the 11-22 minute time frame is where he discusses global sales initiatives, and their importance. There is a lot more important infomation in that CC that covers many of the questions/discussion that are occasionally mentioned on the board.
I have no reason to apologize, as I haven't said anything out of context. I have no need to explain anything to you, but I will explain intentions if you are offended.
When the subject of Africa was brought up by WNBD there were many on this board who tried to paint a picture of Africa being what it was many many years ago. Uneducated, poor, primative, and it is still privative in many regions, but they only wanted to portray the picture of where WNBD would be operating as primative. The fact is now, and was then that many areas of Africa are as sophisticated as the United States, and that is where we WNBD will be. If any of that is offensive to you there is nothing I can do about that. In fact there are many tribes still in Africa that take tremendous pride in their way of life, just as there are many areas in the US that still live by extremely rural values. The point is that WNBD will be in the more advanced areas of Africa as opposed to the areas that many tried to portray when the topic began months ago.
or how about this one!!!!

Re: TAKI post# 127955 Post # of 153085
"HUGE NEWS"? LOL This is a non-event. This could be one case of WC that one of our many ambassador's has strapped to his back while he rides his bike from store to store trying to peddle it. IMO this is the type of news that doesn't need to be pr'd--it's trivial at best and makes it look like there's nothing going on here. Huge news would be going "current information". Once that happens I'm sure Eric will have some nice pr's for us.
Here's one that took about 30 seconds to find, and it wasn't a Joke ole mighty one. It was in refrence to many would have people believe when the subject came up, and people were bashing the stock.

1st South Africa Label
by Eric Lehner
.Here is the package that is being tested now in South Africa:
1st South Africa – 909 ml Label.
I hope so one day bud. There have been several test done comparing the racks to the typical shelved locations, and the results were astounding. I do believe in time we will see many of the retailers allowing the racks if space is available. They just need more time to gather data for leverage in pushing the racks to retailers.

FIRST consumer purchases of Winning Colours Stain Remover in Africa!
by Eric Lehner
.Only minutes ago, photos arrived from South Africa showing the first retail setting on the continent where sales have commenced, today; at an independent retailer called Cedar Paint Emporium and Hardware in the Johannesburg area in the context of market trials. Photos appear below. Well done Zitha and Daniela!
In this first participating location, 5 bottles were purchased the first day. This weblog entry will be updated as more facts come to light.
Website: http://www.cedarpaintemporium.co.za/
First store on the African continent to sell Winning Colours Stain Remover, World’s Most Versatile Cleaning Solution, near Johannesburg, South Africa
First day, 5 bottles, one location, no prior advertising. How many places in the world are there that can offer the World's Most Versatile Cleaning Solution?
.
I have believed this from early 2008, and I have many earlier post indicating that, but below is one from earlier this year.

I invision the tide will change in the type of investor that starts to take notice of WNBD in the not so distant future. There will always be traders regardless of the level we are trading, but I believe more long term growth speculators will begin buying as knowledge of the product, company, and the growth curve become more appearant.
I'm not sure that would be good for the share price. Eric's conservative nature would only allow him to give estimated projections on current retail/distribution channels. With the company just now positioning itself for major US expansion, those estimates could change exponentially at any time during 2011. Therefore, I believe if he were to give any estimates at this time they would be extremely low and not have a positive impact on the share price.....but we know what could happen in the near future lol.
Sorry lol, it was just the odor topic thing.
Yeah, you and Louisa lol. So, I guess Go-Jo and other cleaners don't have a smell.... Come on man, very few cleaners have a neutral odor, and I find the topic of people not using the product based on the smell alone is quite a reach. Some are stronger than others, but it's either a toxic chemical odor, or banana odor. IMO most people would rather tolerate an odor as opposed to dried cracked hands.
The statement from your Niece's fiance' is one of the reasons why this part pf the blog below is of such importance. We have discussed commercial accounts many times on this board, and everyone knows what picking up commercial sales would do for WNBD. Commercial customers would be using Winning Colours evryday, and possibly multiple times daily, which leads to enormous sales comparded to residential use.
The fact that Winning Colours feels so exceptionally good on skin, and that anyone with normal skin (and many people with sensitive skin) can have it on for a long time without irritation is a very important distinction between Winning Colours and typical stain removing cleaning solutions. Interestingly, after this first-hand experience, this particular National Account Manager quickly saw how his commercial accounts can benefit.
I wish we could get an update on this!!!!

Lowes Update
by Eric Lehner
.The 18 Canadian stores have sold 372 bottles in the first month of having Winning Colours Stain Remover. There has been no in-store merchandising (ie display racks, consumer demonstrations or special signage. ) The business plan of Winning Brands calls for working up to an average of one bottle per day per store over 5,000 paint/hardware/home improvement locations in North America as a minimum foundation for Winning Colours, not a maximum potential.
The result of this initial month in the new retailer of more than a bottle every two days without the benefit of in-store merchandising is encouraging, because it already exceeds the existing average store performance for the brand and supports the plausibility of attaining the business plan objective with the addition of “top tier” banners. It is not the policy to provide such detailed store sales information in all cases, for reasons of commercial privacy. However in special circumstances it is possible to provide verification of key points of measurement. This update is in that spirit.

Not sure if this has been posted before.

as an update, i wanted to share that today i dipped my head up to the ears in a pan 5 inches deep with used diesel motor oil and sludge while i was under a car working hard and i had to leave it there to soak while i finished for a minute.
rinsed with cold water and sprinkled with winning colours in the sink, and 80% of it disappeared instantly without leaving residue all over the sink! the rest i washed out in the shower with a little more winning colours
my scalp doesnt itch or burn, in fact i smell like bananas.
It still will take some time for the plan to come together, but you can sure sense a change in momentuem in the air.
Yeah I do too, and I bet there will be a whole van full of people doing the same thing lol.
This is going to be me after the next few press releases lol.
The last three blogs just have the smell of success all over them. Granted it won't be an overnight thing, but definately moving in the right direstion.
On the counter in a popular New York drug store
Advancement in GSA approval
Commercial distribution moving forward
LOOKIN GOOD IN THE FUTURE
The wheels are in motion bud, and the time for those fence sitters to load is drawing to a close, at least for any size holdings. I could really care less whether they buy or not, but the momenteum is building, and the chase is soon at hand.

Winning Colours – Skin Friendliness in Action
by Eric Lehner
.As a consequence of attending the PROGroup Executive Planning Conference, a quick follow-through meeting with the National Accounts Manager of a respected distributor occurred in New York state yesterday. We don’t yet have permission to mention his name or a New York State account that he is thinking of for Winning Colours – there is a different point that is important here – the unsurpassed gentleness to skin of Winning Colours Stain Remover. First-hand experiences are priceless because they are not purchased – they arise naturally and are based on reality. The extract from the field report refers to an unprompted observation by our prospective commercial customer yesterday in this regard…
“X was pleased with the demonstrations and took the initiative to try the product on his hands to remove dried glue residue on a number of his fingers. He was pleased all round with the outcome and commented on how nice his hands felt during and after he was finished.
The fact that Winning Colours feels so exceptionally good on skin, and that anyone with normal skin (and many people with sensitive skin) can have it on for a long time without irritation is a very important distinction between Winning Colours and typical stain removing cleaning solutions. Interestingly, after this first-hand experience, this particular National Account Manager quickly saw how his commercial accounts can benefit.
Time is on our side. More personal exposure = more moments of truth. The exciting thing for us as far as the USA is concerned, we’ve barely scratched the surface of our potential.
.
We probably couldn't ask for a better low volume climb than we are having right now. We are flying under the radar due to the low volume, and still inching upward. I would prefer to continue this low volume climb (under radar) through the month of December, and get the share price around the .007-.008 range before Eric lights the fuse on this rocket. That would make a much nicer launching pad than the .004 area.
I guess since nobody else is still awake to discuss the new developements with me I might as well go to bed myself haha. Things are turning around fence sitters, and it will be decision time soon. Going to play golf tomorrow morning, so hold they fort down folks.
