Eddie,
Please include me too.
Thanks!
Someone correct me if I am wrong but I believe in the upcoming months Eddie is going to be adding more of his smoked items to website menu and the BBQ sauce will be one of them. I had a sample of it sent to me when I ordered a sample of one of everything from the items that were being offered for the 4th of July special. First chance you get to try it though, do yourself a favor and grab some..you will be glad you did..it is shockingly good. :)
I agree. Sampling would make it sell out at every event...people would repeat buy it in a heartbeat once they are introduced to it.
Can't beat it anywhere..
and don't forget the BBQ sauce...it the best I have ever had in my life! I still think it should be bottled and sold as SMKY signature sauce in every store across America because there is no other brand out there that even comes close to it..YUM!!!
Great news! Congratulations Eddie! Wishing you a hugh order week!
Go SMKY!
Ha! That was the perfect end to my day! Thanks Sheepdog..you are always good for a smile!
GO SMKY!!!!!!!!! Have a great night!
Glad to hear..as long as he is still our mascot. Let him make an appearance once in a while...he is a good luck charm :)
Hey...what happened to our mascot? He went on strike without his own personal supply of SMKY salmon? Smart cookie...
That was really great that you started that thread Piano Man, it sure will be wonderful to read the positive feedback..I expect next week or so to start seeing people who are trying SMKY for the first time to post. That will be a great read.
That makes perfect sense.
Thanks Eddie and wishing you great great great success!
How many orders did you get clicked through today on day one? Are you able to say or give any feedback on?
Thanks Six for help tip
Yeppers..that is what I am looking at too on the site.
Very attractive ad!
So finally got the ad at 3:33
here is the link..click on it to see if you can still see it.
I took a print screen shot and saved it on word doc temporarily because I couldn't paste it in post box. Now how do I get pic up so you all can see it? Very attractive ad and placement.
insert-text-here
You know..I know there is no way Eddie will have time to do this but it would be neat if we could find out at what times an order comes over so we can figure out if there is a time sequence that these ads run so we can snap shot one. Oh well..someone is going to get it soon anyway I am sure. I have figured out while waiting and watching why Full Sail tuition is so high though. Learning a little while checking..
Yes, that is one of the things I love about it. Have you tried it cold yet in salad? It is super good like that too. I really don't think there is a way you could prepare it that it wasn't excellent.
This is not helping my craving go away..you know that right?
That is funny because I presumed yours already delivered and was going to say earlier if you lived closer... but I will tell you I cheated (don't tell Eddie :)) and did thaw in microwave on meat .03 setting to speed it up and it came out good. (I won't do that again but I was serious about that SMKY craving) I am not longer hungry but I still want the salmon. Man that SMKY salmon is DELICIOUS and addictive! Good stuff.
Totally agree. I think that is going to change by the day and week until an established pattern emerges.
By the way..I want you all to know that just because I am watching for this ad don't you know what I am craving right now is a fillet of SMKY salmon for lunch and I am out (my bad). I have to reorder...but don't feel too bad for me because I am thawing out my second to last package of SMKY beef sirloin tri tip slices to get my SMKY flavor fix. :)
No math needed. We are so going to hit that IMO. Product is too good.
Last ditch effort for low cost shares. Bet ya in the future weeks as we get updated on sales, your not going to be able to get shares at those prices if you tried and alot of new investors are going to be coming in for long holds.
Those are my two favorites along with the BBQ sauce that is the best I have ever tasted in my life.
I think if these ads just started today and to already have any orders already is really hugh and a drop in the bucket as opposed to what is going to come in.
Does anybody happen to know how many orders is necessary to cover cost of advertising per month? If we reach the 1% goal are we past that and in profit or do we need more than 1% - I haven't done any math on this because I don't know if WW is at 50% off all orders from start?
I browsed through for a while and haven't seen SMKY ads persoanlly but did notice that some of the ones on the far right long that are not WW's ad are delivered by microsoft so I am assuming the advertising contract went through them and the AT & T ads are simular but state if you click on details that they are set to be automatically matched up to your computers browsing history. The crab classic, tuna and gordons fish ads are comparable proteins so we are not an exclusive protein but that is not a bad thing..that is a good thing. Wren is 24/7 click through and must spend/make a fortune on this site.
I am going to keep looking throughout the day as well and if I get a glimpse will snap a screen shot and post. Pianoman do you think your wife would entertain starting a thread titled SMKY on the page you posted with the link to order? If she has tried it yet that is all she would need to say that she tried it and liked it if that is the case and here is the link to review/order?
Just a thought.
Last thought is whoever just sold at .30 begs the question why in the world would you do that now? Try to hang on to your shares - now is absolutely not the time to be selling..that doesn't make any sense, you are going to lose money doing that (alot)
Monday is the big day right? Hopefully Eddie will be able to let us know on Monday night how many orders came over on the first day. Even 1 would be exciting! You have to start somewhere :) If anyone is a member and can show those of us who are not where the ad placement is on the website that would be awesome (unless it is where the sponsors are shown in which case we should all be able to enjoy the show)Has that question been brought up before? Is SMKY considered a sponsor that can be viewed by public if they log on WW site or will the click through logo be somewhere on site that is viewable to members only?
Hi All,
Haven't had time to read the board yet but read the marketwire.
Congratulations Eddie! All the best success to you and thanks for taking us along for the ride!!!
Can not wait to see the WW members response, I think it is going to be overwhelmingly positive!
GLTA
I agree with everything you just said 100%
Hi Six,
I agree with what you posted and have also recommended this stock for the reasons you stated to both family members and co workers. Those who have purchased stock have done so after they have done their own DD specifically at my request and have done so because they see the potential here. I personally feel that SMKY is going to be well received by the WW market and the follow up word of mouth advertising (which still IMO remains the strongest form of advertisment out there) will be positive. The stock is going to react accordingly. 40's are going to be something of the past in the not too distant future with alot of growth potential still remaining.
Last note..I still think at the end of the day it all boils down to the product and who is running the company. Having tried all the products and having had (even though it was very limited) some interaction with the CEO, I still have complete confidence in both.
Chow
GO SMKY!!!
I am a buyer, but not for seafood line. I just love salmon and especially SMKY's. (Really, not just saying that)
If you specifically are wanting to pinpoint ones that run then that I am no good at but if you are worried about not coming out positive on this even if it is small, I don't think you have anything to worry about because this still has alot of growing to do. Have a good night and good luck to you!
I have only been in since .027 - found it by accident earlier than that..read up on it and watched board for a while. Liked what I was learning and the active role CEO played in keeping everyone up to date and informed. (he reminds me of another very successful CEO that I have alot of respect for) His passion for what he is doing came through for me. Liked the business plan, made well thought out common sense to me. Ordered (much later..only read others feedback on it prior to that) and it was and is as good as everybody says. Have been adding ever since. Believe this company has the potential to be successful and will be because of the product itself, the business plan and the knowledge/commitment and perseverance of the gentleman who is running the show. Nothing non obtainable going on here, just a hardworking intelligent individual with a vision that is obtainable because he has all the tools necessary to make it happen and the market to make it happen in. I believe if it were going to go any other way, it would have broke him when the recession hit. His endurance through that and coming out on the other side even stronger speaks volumes to me. Shows he is not going to quit until he sees this thing through. And it will happen. I believe this to be the case anyway and will continue to hold this stock and keep adding shares when I can until I see it happen. Those are my 2 cents anyway, hope it helped. Hey...2 cents..that is where I started! Will check out board next weekend. Hope all have a great week this week and go SMKY!!!
Okay so I guess I have to get used to checking I-Hub mailbox more often :)
Stone - I believe I owe you a thankyou (it is late because I just now saw your note from week before last) It may make you laugh by telling you that I am not sure what that means (yes showing my novice skill level at I-Hub) but I will figure it out and get more savvy at it. But thank you anyway, I believe that was a good thing :)
And yes SMKY (from 22nd) I have tried and enjoyed all - I didn't post yet because I was giving you a break from being so "wordy" but I am taking one of each up to family members house next weekend to try before I start putting in regular orders for delivery up there as well. Also have sampled out to people who ended up buying stock as a result and will be ordering as well. Does that give you an idea of how much I like it? :) I am completely on board.
Lots of new eyes on SMKY from coast to coast :)
Ours make two so we are solid! LOL
Could not resist shouting out "aye!" because I couldn't agree more!
This is SOOOOOOOOOOOO exciting to watch this company take off.
Very excited to see what happens this week..and next week...and the next... (you get the idea)
So impressed with Eddie - I think he is going to be very successful with every planned step along the way.
Give SMKY mascott a pet on the head from me :)
SHEIS,
I think that is a fantastic idea
Loving it!!!!
Go SMKY!!
Thanks Six,
That sounds like a good idea. I will try that method - sounds like it would work well.
I am glad you said that about the beans. They weren't available yet for me to order in but when they are, if those beans are in the same BBQ sauce as the one I was sent with my products, then ole BUSH's just bit the dust.
That BBQ really is CRAZY good! :)
Your welcome. I think you are going to have alot of people " lovin your cooking"
Hi SMKY peeps,
I said I was going to post what I think about the products because I am trying them all for the first time and last night was the ribletts so here is my feedback if anyone who has not yet tried them is interested.
You have to keep in mind that I not a huge meat eater because up to about 2 weeks ago, a family member lived with me that was completely vegetarian so I have not brought raw meats in my house to prepare for probably over 15 years. Salmon yes because I have the store steam it for 15 minutes before I bring it home to eat so no kitchen prep needed. That is why I eat so much salmon (now moving forward will be ordering SMKY salmon)
Okay with that being said...meat I am no expert on by a long shot. BBQ sauce I am picky on (understatement if you knew me) I know how many different varieties I have tried and had at other people’s houses and I always default to my personal favorite for my house (even though it does end up on tofu or in bean recipe, etc) I tried the BBQ sauce first before I put it on the ribletts so I didn’t ruin them if I didn’t like it – which honestly what I was half way expecting, to be eating the smoked ribletts without sauce. I took a spoonful and so did my friend. We looked at each other simultaneously… took another spoonful (notably larger spoonfuls this time) and started cracking up. First words out of her mouth were “OMG this stuff is so good!” Only thoughts were running through my head were:
1- I am really shocked I like this so much
2- How did he (Eddie) manage to improve on BBQ sauce?
3- Why is this guy not already famous for just this alone and
4- Why is it not already bottled and sold in stores?
I have no earthly idea how anyone thought up to blend all of those specific ingredients together for a BBQ sauce but I can tell you it works and is absolutely out of this world good. I am not just saying that, I really mean it, I love it and I am still shocked over the fact that I do.
I liked the ribletts too. I can eat those with or without sauce because I like the flavor of the meat alone and they are good both ways. Just like the salmon I like the portion size, it is perfect. The only question I have on the ribs…and it is not by any means a negative, it is my lack of experience working with meats is that when you put them in the oven for 15 minutes you are supposed to take them out and peel off the under skin before you baste in sauce and return them to oven for final 2 minutes. I couldn’t figure out how I was supposed to take off the under skin because bottom of ribs were too hot for my fingers to touch at that point (I had that part touching the pan) I wasn’t really quite sure exactly what the under skin was anyway. When we ate them, then I understood what it was but to me it was no big deal because I just pulled the meat away from it with my teeth, the meat is soft enough to do that. Now next time I prepare them I will know though and do it right per the directions. If there is a technique to do that without using your fingers? If so will someone post it for me?
Again, I want to stress that I didn’t find that a negative at all, I know it was because I am not too familiar working with meats at home and most people are.
So after trying the ribletts, I could enjoy with or without the sauce, depends on what I would be serving them with I think but they are definitely good both ways and I would repeat buy those too. I hope the BBQ sauce is going to be sold separately as well so I can order extra quantity of that and replace what I normally keep in my fridge.
Have a great week all!
GO SMKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi SMKY shareholders,
I just wanted to let you know that my SMKY products all arrived last Thursday (two days ago) and so far I have had only the salmon for dinner but wanted to share with you what I thought about it. It was OUTSTANDING.
I loved the flavor profile. Really pleased it met all my expectations. I am not a salmon expert but I do eat a lot of it and am super picky about finding salmon that is low sodium, low fat, high protein w/ no preservatives and nothing artificial added. I found it to be prepared very well. It was moist and flavorful. You can taste the SMKY flavor from the sweet hickory smoke in every bite – it is gentle, it does not overpower the salmon (which I appreciated personally) but compliments it perfectly.
6 oz fillet as it turns out is the PERFECT individual portion size. For anyone here who has not ordered it yet you get 4 - 6 oz fillets with your order so you can take out just one if you are only cooking for yourself...or whatever you need for your family situation. I really like that way it is packaged as well because for me that results in zero waste of my grocery dollars. Speaking for myself only, finding products that successfully blend convenience with high quality healthy food is not easy. Everyone and their brother advertise as such but this is the real deal.
I liked the way it is shipped too,frozen and in an attractive white cooler packed with icepacks inside so that when I got home from work my order was sitting at my front door in Florida 90 degree heat but still remained frozen solid inside because of the way it was packed (properly). Also noteworthy is that the customer service I received from ordering through delivery was stellar.
I would recommend this company to anyone and will be. If my experience is indicative of the experience future online shoppers are going to have then everyone who owns stock in this should be smiling ear to ear. I have a lot of confidence in this company and this stock and am going to continue to keep accumulating as I have all along. Very excited about the next few weeks, months and years to come.
So for tonight I have the pork ribletts thawing in my refrigerator with a bottle of Chianti. I will let you know how they are tonight or tomorrow.
Off of vacation as of last week so probably will only be able to pop in here and see what is happening on weekends again but looking forward to it.
Tomorrow night will be the Beef Tri-tip Sirloin Slices & Monday will be the boneless Pork Loin Slices!
GO SMKY!!!!!!!!!!
Well from reading everyone else's feedback so far, I am leaning towards I am going to love the food too. Really excited to find a lower sodium smoked salmon as well. If these taste as good as I think they are going to..I have a mother who does not know it yet.. but is going to start receiving regular deliveries of SMKY products to her front door as soon as web site is up.
I haven't seen your dog in a couple of days..was starting to miss him! :)
Have a great night!
