Not much of an argument you have there. So did DirectTV, Dish Network, Roku, etc. have 400 subscribers at some point.
Rudely addressing someone's wife is exactly what gets people blocked but more importantly says a lot about character.
I agree with some of this here. Not making excuses for missteps in ARYC but you always look at the body not just the head. After first hand investigation I can say the body appears to be sound.
In addition, it is important to point out how easy it is to criticize from the outside looking in. That "if I were boss" view point is seldom accurate unless you have an intimate working knowledge the company. Coupled with the both positive and negitive fact that the principals are extremely intelligent regarding this field can make it hard to understand the whys.
I have had the pleasure of meeting these very nice people and after years of directing departments full PhD's I can say ARYC would have benefited long ago from some outside executive management.
That being said, the mistakes have been made, the lessons learned and in my opinion the corner turned. I believe this is why we are seeing a much greater interest in the products with larger organizations. So rocking the boat now could cause more harm than good.
Again, understanding the whole here requires understanding the thought process of very intelligent individual's. What you and I might see as common sense is seen differently by them. This is easy to recognize in things like Twitter type PR. Whether directly or indirectly posted by management they obviously see things as a positive or pertinent information many may not.
Regardless, in the next few months serveral big issues will be resolved and my DD leads me to believe the chains will be off ARYC.
Very true. The only trick with these companies is to get them at the absolute bottom.
Honestly, that is why I am here. These boards are a wealth of knowledge and without them there would be little chance of even knowing some of these companies existence. Let alone before they ran.
It is much easier to stomach a 12k loss around
.0003 @ 40mil share count than one @ .003. Because lets face it, this is still OTC and truth is sparse commodity.
This play is a text book "overnight success". Obviously it has been a while in the making but even very little DD will signal it is ready to possibly take off. A lot of the hard work is done.
In addition, if you were not brand new and took some profit at the first run up from the bottom your likely holding a pretty good hand.
Hahaha. Well I guess some don't start off that way but heck about half these OTC companies are barely selling air...
Basic DD tells you this is a startup with all the startup problems coupled with public company issues.
Very basic analysis of the facts, players and sector tells you out of the many OTC startups this one has more potential than the majority.
The sector is hot and not crowded by any means, especially regarding OTT.
The players are verifiable, well connected and experianced in everything within this space.
Facts are that in a very short time, for a startup, Viva has done a lot with the available resources. Product, marketing and sales are in place.
This is the crouch position in a startup right now.
Yes, it remains to be seen how powerful the lunge will be but this is exactly why poker players make good OTC traders.
They take all information available and quickly visualize odds of success.
Those of us who got in at the bottom because of this visualization have already seen success and are merely waiting now to see how far it will go.
What we are seeing right now is everyone else scrambling for a position before takeoff or making pennies flipping day to day hoping to have a piece when it does launch.
What really excited me about this one was all the opportunity for Viva to receive revenues through the many facets of an entertainment company and the elbow rubbing with deep pockets able to help make things happen.
I think it is highly discounted that Johnny and friends are regularly in the company of people who need to spend money and could at any moment write a check and offer promotional services that could overnight send this company flying.
That is the sector you are investing in.
It is posted many places because it is factual. Yes here in OTC land the variables are many and predictions can be wiped out by a simple filling. But it doesn't change the mechanics of the markets whatsoever. These carry on with or without your belief or understanding.
The real factors here in the OTC are the products and the players. If they are tangible and verifiable then you can buy at the bottom where losses will be small and gains worth the risk.
Otherwise your much better off trading traditional markets than throwing in the wishing well of penny stocks.
So he blocked you. LOL
Very true! The best business is done word of mouth. It will also see constant growth and sustain that growth.
I don't need to pump anything in a stock that paid for itself plus 6 figures and still holding strong at another 6 figures of profit.
You must be on the wrong side of this one.
Glad to see someone taking an interest in this.
This material is of good quality and I have had employees and family place advertising along the Texas border.
ARYC sales are mostly direct to larger companies. They don't window shop on the Internet like a household consumer. You use direct sales associates that fuel these type of activities.
In addition, you can make as many changes to your website as you would like without changing the date. So this number is meaningless.
Lol. What a load of garbage.
I tell you what, if this company goes BK I will buy it out myself.
There is certianly room to run here.
If it's any indication, entertainment industry is already scrambling to make sure they get their peice of the pie. I highly doubt any effort would be wasted if someone didn't think it was going somewhere.
HAHAHA.
"filings are effortless"
Says the "investor" with a multimillion dollar public company.
Comical.
Very true. I did as well because you seldom have the liquidity bellow 5$ to take a position size worth the risk. Much easier to do this in mid and large caps.
Here you can take a very small sum and see nice gains with little to no effort other than initial DD.
Oh and an OTC rarity, patience.
Nice to see a post with pertinent information. Excellent job at bringing to light the facts that get easily lost on this board constantly.
This should all be well known to investors here but obviously that is not the case.
Some of the seemingly insignificant facts in your document are the key factors I have used to access the likelihood of an acquisition, merger of buyout with Viva.
I know there has been some drama around Johnny and his venting on childish social forum's. Believe me, if you take the time to personally speak with him and other principals you will know they are more than capable of seeing this to fruition.
Of course, you can always just look at the facts and how far it has come in a short time. Poor leadership would have seen OTTV a failure long ago as this is not a business you stumble through.
Agreed. But enough already. Only people who care about this are people who do not matter at all in the scope of investing.
This is how social media works, it only has validity if someone is willing to give it validity.
This will be my last post giving children and their nonsense anymore credence.
I love it. Not quite there yet in years but living on Belize time, so sometimes I forget what day it is all together.
Of course whiskey and fishing doesn't help much either. Retirement is wonderful.
Not being disrespectful but yes that would be considered small time.
I do agree tweeting is pointless but as I said it is the culturally accepted thing right now within his group of associates.
I trade NASDAQ predominantly so news is more reliable but less would most definitely be more right now for OTTV.
Agreed. You are not going to change this. It has become a cultural standard within the circles he associates.
This emotion looks misdirected if examining a single tweet. But in reality it is the same emotion that drives his passion for success.
I will accept a somewhat warranted misstep knowing the pressures he is most definitely under.
Again the ridiculousness and arrogance in OTC is mind boggling so I can appreciate the frustration.
The moment you think humans aren't going to be human anymore you will be sadly disappointed.
Now this I can agree with!
I don't think he or anyone else should Tweet at all, it is like the worlds Ihub so obviously no stopping it.
On thing you have to take into account, celebrities, political figures and the like have made it an acceptable method of venting then subsequently regretting or apologizing. This is hos comfort zone as he is embedded in this culture.
This is both a good and bad thing no doubt but in the sector Viva is in more good than bad.
Besides the only people crying back are the small time investors it was directed.
I can see his frustration as I have it daily with all these, um nice OTC "investors".
Do I think he should post it on Twitter? Good a place as any since he will reach his troll audience. Real investors do not pay much attention to Twitter.
In fact I wouldn't even know about it if it were not for here.
Very common sense approach.
I don't use Twitter for this reason. It is a way to quickly convey information but in business these sales are never final till the check clears. So discrepancies are likely but by omitting the other possible revenues this methodology should give a ballpark figure.
Having spoken with Arrayit they are well aware of invedtors attempt to estimate sales using Twitter. These are not stupid people so I doubt these figures are fabricated.
In addition, it would be pointless. They could tweet a 10 million sale and almost no seasoned investor would give it credence without something other than a tweet so pps would not be affected.
While this is never anything I have ever done in business I have to laugh at the posts from obviously fortune 500 executives criticizing this.
This type of professionalism simply explains why OTC is in place to take money from armchair traders.
If you ever operated a real business of any size you know that even if this is trivial you only succeed in discrediting yourself by pointless comments.
Key would would be carry the same weight as. PR and Tweets do carry the same weight legally, virtually none at all.
Ever read the legal disclaimers? Says in layman's terms don't believe any of this as it is whoever's opinion that wrote it. Just like what I am typing here, take it or leave it, makes no nevermind to me.
I don't read tweets and take PR's with a grain of salt. My DD is fact based reseach in the begining and switches to hands on before investing.
You have been told. If you doubt that they are working on finishing 2016 simply call and ask.
There was no tweet hype. You can read into it whatever you would like but fact is seasoned investors take blogs, tweets and the like for exactly the purpose they were intended.
I see many posts here doubting board members DD yet you will believe any tweeted opinion?
Laughable...
Possibly but more likely it will walk up over this next week
I do agree that there is a following with him.
I have seen this so many times here with these start up OTC companies. They start out playing the OTC games as you have to in these markets. But when the product is launched and they start progressing from the start up phase the OTC stigma continues to be played out to appease the news junkies here.
If Viva wants to become a big boy in this sector they have to start acting like one now. Not after several "promo PR's" to spike pps only to watch it fall as interest drops because it doesn't happen as fast as the flippers want.
If Viva starts giving corprate updates and then ignores the cries of OTC trolls, giving the time need to see the update through to fruition, they will attract more experienced investors. In addition, the pps will move more traditionally obeying technical charting more than it would otherwise.
This will make them more attractive to addition agreements and partnerships in the future as well. The Viva team is in agreement with this strategy but understandably pressures are great from all angles right now so will just have to see what prevails.
There are no legal issues with writing an article. They get paid for doing this so I am sure there is a capital issue.
I am sure you could pay them and get an article.
These types of write ups are pointless. Just give it a little more than a week and slowly as subscribers and company ad campaigns come on line Viva will be fine.
It works like your DVR in many applications and they can place ads anywhere depending on agreements.
The orginators commercial breaks are timed so you can insert there as well, again it all depends on the lease agreements.
They will have a program editing staff, media marketing division and many other facets as this continues to develop. These services can also be contracted out in the short term as well.
Most all but live TV is produced and edited long before you ever veiw it. Not to say there is not the same with live veiwing, just done as it is happening. This is why if you ever watch live unedited footage the lag time is different than the produced, edited versions.
Remember advertising is how these companies actually make their money so this system is already in place to the millisecond. Time is huge money here. Contractual agreements and very complicated but are designed to be fluid for different towns, counties, states, countries, etc.
No they are not a buy out candidate, yet. I will also agree that it doesn't happen often.
Two things I see that can make this happen sooner are the sector. Many companies have seen virtually overnight growth in the past.
Then you have the management, they made their living "selling ice to Eskimos".
With the right catalyst this could go 0 to 60 fast.
Doesn't generally work like that. The "big boys" don't like losing money at any cost. They know on paper it is far better to just pay whatever the value of the company is and start making money within they business model as opposed to guess at how long a company can hold out in a competition for lowest price.
Is even less likely with a company like Viva that could be bought very cheap, as companies go, if desired.
T trades have nothing to do with pps at the end of the day. They are merely unaccounted for trades during the day.
Constantly see posters try to create drama with T trades. It is utter BS.
There are more than enough articles explaining MM's their functions in the market and of course what a T trade is.
Interesting reading if you are just learning and highly recommend if you want to understand the markets.
Like I said. Speak to your attorney and get back to me. I regularly talk with companies I am invested with.
Yoga is most likely not a shareholder and speak with your attorney on how to properly handle conversations with the company as a shareholder.
You will be surprised what you can and cannot do as a shareholder.
Show me proof of this fake information. Or are you just guessing yet again?
You know if you call or better yet show up in person they are happy to discuss these things with you.
Or is that to much DD?
More false information. When pushed he checked, replied with what he was told and responded to share holders.
Do I think it is a mistake for him to attempt to be responsive with shareholders, yes. Most are inexperienced and lack knowledge of the markets which includes financing. How many times have you seen these toxic financiers convert illegally or lie about intentions? Then be sued for it...
My only critic would be to treat shareholders on a need to know basis, understanding they don't need to know anything until after the fact has occurred. Possibilities have no place in shareholders hands as they cannot receive it a commonsense fashion.
Saving your comments for facts you can substantiate in the future will be serve your credibility.
Only difference between a private company and public is babysitting inexperienced "investors" crying about their poor choices.
As for credibility, they have it where it matters. I don't give a damn if they know anything about babysitting.
They know the product they sell and are well respected in that community.
