Time will tell. I'll be here!
Hence the selling! Management are idiots!
How about the reality of "somebody completely different"! I highly doubt Calkin is coming back or the Stanley brothers want anything to do with GRCU'S false starts of the past. If I were a Stanley brother then I would be looking at much more established MMJ/MJ companies and those not in the OTC. Let's get real!
A PR tomorrow announcing the names on the new BOD is mandatory. This company is losing credibility by the day and that's coming from this loyal long. The idiot that wrote the 9/29 PR put a self imposed idiotic deadline of 1 week to announcing names on BOD. That was on 9/29 and tomorrow is 10/06 i.e. "within the week" as advertised. I'm starting to wonder if we're not dealing with a continuous list of BOD members consisting of idiots! Credibility in the OTC should be priority and so far GRCU has earned little! These idiots better get on the ball! Today's selling by the impatient and those who lose trust easily is of no surprise to me! If they can't make a date then they need to keep their pie holes shut. The GRCU management needs to "Shut up, put up, and then speak."
Calkin, Jones and Cruz??? I've wondered if Cruz has been difficult to work with. He was CFO under CEO Calkin but it was Cruz's money funding operations. My bet is Cruz wouldn't let Calkin make a move on his own and/or Cruz had final approval on all decisions. That might have been unforeseen by Calkin when he accepted the position. Some say "Calkin did little" but was that by Cruz's design? Then we have Jones who came and went quickly after accepting the position of CEO. Is Cruz tough to work with when it's his personal money on the line or is he difficult in general? Now that Instep bought out Green Cures Inc and is now the majority shareholder then who goes and who remains? Who or what continues to fund operations? Who paid for the new labeling? Who keeps the websites open etc? It will be very interesting to see who makes up the new BOD! An MJ/MMJ/HEMP industry insider would be very welcoming!
Zero evidence on any GRCU negative claims. The only GRCU negative criteria credibility is the obvious fact the PPS should never have gone to .049 in the first place. The climb was all artificial in hindsight. Calkins hype and the general MMJ/MJ sector hype brought the PPS to .049. If someone performing their DD checked out the news timeline versus PPS; the company hadn't started yet when the PPS hit .049. It had no where to go but back to realistic levels. The PPS dropping to sub penny has zero to do with any of these hyperventilated false theories of demise and/or failure. GRCU will build back confidence in their market and once the MJ/MMJ sector picks up steam again; GRCU'S PPS will follow. Instep and GRCU will be a growing and thriving business in the sector. No doubt in mind and I'm a product developer by trade. The difference being I develop electro/mechanical sensors and radar systems for the DOD versus consumables.
I don't understand those who invest or trade down here in the cesspool but then imply they fear or can't afford reverse splits. If that's the case then why in hell are they investing in or trading OTC stocks? The PR'S have mentioned "no reverse split" although I do take any OTC shareholder's or an OTC company's PR with a grain of salt. On the other hand if the RS enables the company to up list and the PPS ratio remains the same or increases then so be it.
I know I know, "OTC stock RS'S are never successful".
The shareholders position shrinks in number and the PPS eventually retraces to previous lows. Time will tell for GRCU. I can afford the risk of an RS reducing shareholder value. My six figure income and lack of debt allows it! I'm not a day trading monkey who requires to maintain "seed money" for margin trading or requires grocery money from profits to feed a family. I could give a hoot about any daily PPS or the threat of an RS. This is long term for me and as the saying goes "risk versus reward" and I have years to wait. I'll take vacation money off the table from time to time if the wife and I want to go on a $10K cruise or similar but the bulk of my investment will remain and I'll continue to add as I see fit.
Green Cures Inc was bought out. Instep and GRCU will merge with much value brought in from Instep. When is unknown and it could be a while but IMO it's coming.
Rick, we could also speculate the 90mm shares just retired were part of the 100mm restricted shares issued to Green Cures LLC right before the Instep buyout? Maybe Instep retired some of those 100mm? I'm hoping Instep retains the 100mm incentive and those 90mm retired shares came from somewhere else.
Was Rico Suave's introduction poor or a test market with all the gimmicks of a real product release? Why advertise an arm wrestling contest? It was so ridiculous that it can only be part of a test. The good looking girls probably came cheap but had zero appearances. Why all that without any follow through? Because that's what test marketing is! Cruz isn't stupid after having run a successful real estate venture for years. Real estate requires much marketing and advertising. Cruz would know better and would not make an intentional mistake of releasing a product for a couple months without the funding to follow through if that was the real intention. Any real business plan would include enough product for a given demographic and that demographics demand. Those numbers are easy to find and plan for in a known market. With HEMP based products the markets are unknown since it is a new sector. I think Allcbd.com and the Rico Suave realize was a façade to test market with the intentions of the imminent buyout and then a future merger. The merger is how they will further reduce the share structure and increase shareholder value. Instep owns 100mm restricted shares. My bet is they want those shares worth at least $10mm or .10/share. That would provide much future funding with a minimized dilution. My bet is Instep has a plan to bring the PPS to .10/share. I personally hope Cruz stays on in some capacity. That would add credibility to the above theory. If Cruz stays on as CFO or similar then IMO it provides him more incentive to hold his shares well past his .005 average. He would also bring with him all he learned over the last 20 months +/-.
Slow and steady wins the race!
It's coming and it's big!
GRCU "economy is going to rocket"!
Same folks had GRCU in the greys and out of business by now! They were wrong and continue to be wrong about all!
I've said before, IMO last years sales were test markets. GRCU now knows exactly what product volume they will require to meet market demand. Monster Marketing are also experts with that data so I doubt we see the shelves empty again. Personally I think the plan is unfolding almost as expected. The only surprises might have been some disappointment in the original BOD and some of their decisions. Products have always been five star IMO!
Lessons have been learned as is the case in any new business! New labels look great! New marketing team has proven results. New BOD will be stronger than the first! I foresee Rico Suave being remarketed among other new products. Additional share reductions on the way! WE HAVE A REAL COMPANY HERE!
Duuhhh! I no nuttin bot I tink thit mite b a cam! Oink! Zero evidence and zero DD that GRCU is a scam! Prove it next time!
In the 8/20/2015 PR we read the following in bold below. 100mm restricted shares were allocated for controlling entity Green Cures Inc. Those restricted shares were obviously reserved for Instep Holdings LLC. and though Instep is another new company; they might have the ways and means and connections to bring GRCU to another level or at least start marketing and selling CBD and other products at a much higher volume. Instep registrant on 9/4/2015 i.e. two weeks ago is basically Monster Marketing Group (see red print below). The 100mm restricted shares more than likely pays MMG for their marketing and other services operating under Instep Holdings LLC. That might simply be a way for Monster Marketing to hide from the stigma of "HEMP" and "MJ" public awareness. Whether that is the idea is yet to be seen or whether it turns out to be right or wrong decision is yet to be seen. There may come a day where advertising HEMP and MJ products on national TV is the thing to do but not right now! I'm confident the products will be marketed with all the "HEMP", "GREEN" and "MJ Leaf" logos moving forward but the company stays isolated from the stigma associated with this new sector. In addition it opens the doors for the new BOD members and additional funding opportunities that a one man show would have a harder time achieving. How much do we think Instep Holdings LLC want their 100mm shares of GRCU to be worth down the road? Well it's not .0013/share since that is only $130K right now and only if they could sell them. They are restricted shares! Cruz also wants his 23mm shares worth much more than $29.9K. These types of "business" folks also don't need to sell for grocery money so they will be holding long term and growing GRCU. Any other theory like "share selling schemes" for pennies on the dollar is ludicrous and laughable!

Ahhhh yeah, "release the Calkin" worked out well for many! LOL! What a joke he was!
A brand new product sector once illegal will need very creative and state-of-the-art marketing strategies to beat competition. That marketing trait is much more important in my opinion than a HEMP(CBD) and MJ raw ingredients expert. Unless of course the HEMP/MMJ/MJ company is a supplier. Only then would an executive with extensive knowledge of how to produce the best HEMP, MMJ or MJ raw ingredients would be required. Otherwise the retailer selling products with HEMP(CBD) ingredients can simply use lab reports and understand percentage of ingredients and quality of those ingredients. I think those with experience in consumable products would have much experience reading lab test reports.
The CBD/MMJ/MJ product retailers needs the best suppliers but more importantly the best marketing team.
I like your style! Agree with all!
I will chime in shortly on this "buy out". In the meantime this GRCU so-called "share selling scheme" THEORY ONLYis BS. Do you believe a constant naysayer since day one or the companies acting CEO who says "no change in AS and no RS"? In addition, where are these "so-called" sales? The volume doesn't show large sale lots! Give it a break!
Cruz PR'S don't kill MOMO. The flippers who sell into the news kill the MOMO. How can a PR kill GRCU MOMO?
Indeed! Plenty of time and it will take time! Many business' have long lead times, schedule delays, and false starts. Especially in a new sector with the wholesale suppliers still "learning the ropes"! Cruz will come to understand his "supply chain management" skills or hire someone with them. In the meantime, the games continue!
I wonder who that might be?
It's imminent!!!
How do you make money channel trading when 99% of the time your predictions like the one below are off?
Sr Mechanical Engineer working 25 miles outside of DC. $118.5/year as of last week's performance review! God Bless America! I'm sure many make much more and many make much less but my point is "I don't require grocery money" or do I care from one day to the next what the PPS is. This is a 5-10 year investment and I'll buy historical lows whenever possible. I find the repetitive nonsense and what comes off as chump change desperation to be annoying. It lacks integrity, zero DD and implies those reading this crap are newbies or complete idiots.

GRCU w/ .0006 close tomorrow. Calling it.
I would like to thank DTL for taking the time to pause from his sweet 6 figure salary as an engineer or whatever he says he does to post here on the I-Rick board. We all really appreciate the effort. I've been working my fingers raw with these flip trades trying to make money for groceries... so I haven't been able to post much during the last few days. Too much money to be made with easy channel trading. I would be very happy if GRCU hit an ALL TIME LOW so I could load more greasy shares. Rinse my Whale B's off and repeat once again!
GRCU PR = .0001 so lets hope he stays silent
Good luck to everyone this week.
Whales will seek out Cruz for private funding at discounted restricted GRCU shares. They won't be listening to the BS on this forum or buy at retail. Whales to some seem to be those willing to invest a few thousand. Peanuts and popcorn! GRCU needs 100mm in volume per day. What I see happening here is sad and lacks integrity.
Nothing but selling today on the Rick and Greasy board! Nothing is going to happen here until credibility and real investors are brought into the GRCU market! A select few are selling their .0004-.0009's while speaking out the other side of their mouth's. Let's take it to .0001 and have some real fun with flipping; shall we! Get ready for a lousy week!
I've done my DD for 20 months now. It's coming and success is imminent!
Indeed! If their buying GRCU is a POS because cheaper is better, if their selling then GRCU is the best company going or the technical look great, etc. It's so transparent everywhere you look!
He wants out of this cesspool! This is not the place for a legitimate business trying to make a go at it! The rhetoric, irony, BS, deceit, etc only takes away GRCU's credibility and legitimacy. All for "grocery money"! LOL!
I received a PM on another board concerning Cruz's thoughts on this board! He laughs!
Same! Buying!
Been trading OTC microcaps for 11 years. Your not teaching me anything about one or the other. On the other hand GRCU is far from a scam. The comedy comes from those posting!
It's a comedy act!
