What's funny, it wouldn't take much to turn LFBG into a serious contender. I believe it really starts with putting out a great graphical, storyline, and easy to understand game that many people like. This includes action/adventure via a 3D character (not the goofy innocent looking Charlie Church mouse characters) but a hard-nosed, realistic lead character and supporting casts. I keep coming back to the graphics in DC Universe Online. Those graphics are really cool and entertaining. That along with great product packaging I believe is first and foremost.
Perhaps put out some demos of that game and then launch them into the retail stores. If LFBG does that, it would be taken more seriously in my opinion. The time for marketing games only to people 12 and under needs to cease IMO. Also instead of free games, I believe LFBG should only allow people to obtain demos for free. If necessary during this time, advertise a $5.00 download that way they are still making money.
Better yet, LFBG should do a contest as far as who has the best video game idea. Entries could be submitted to LFBG directly and the winner could receive say $500 and serious consideration of their game idea for 2012.
That would really help the company IMO.
I would say it's only a matter of time before something is released. For those who are gamblers (I guess all of us here are in some way), it's a great opportunity to buy at .0002 (.0001 if you're lucky). Imagine the double whammy if Lenny releases something on the nanosolar and at the same time obtains time on QVC for an informercial. If that happens, you'll be kicking yourself for not getting some at .0002. That's all speculation of course.
Here is the link regarding the nanosolar power article: http://greeneconcepts.com/business-journal-report/. It looks pretty official to me but my guess is Lenny and LKEN are still developing how they want to market this and as such have not released a PR about it.
I have about 17000000 shares. This is definitely an exciting find for the nanosolar/ink combination and am excited about where this might lead us. It would be nice to see LKEN partner with another company to really market this new technology and also get an informercial for the ink.
The calendar shows an August, 2011 calendar which matches up to the Wednesday, August 31 date of this year. The new month started on Thursday, Sept 1 which matches up. Looks like the article and picture are legit from a couple of weeks ago. We should get the PR shortly IMO.
I've e-mailed them too a few times and have not received a reply either. It just seems like a coincidence is all that a date suddenly appears after we reference the article here is all. Let's hope they get that informercial spot on QVC or ShopatHome sooner rather than later.
In a dream world, it would be great for a lot of people to pull money together to get LKEN a 30 second spot during the SuperBowl. How cool would that be?
I have a feeling that representatives at LKEN are either looking at this board or the number of hits on the article's webpage or both because the article now has the date it was written. The article says it was written on Aug 26, 2011 just a couple of weeks ago.
Since the date wasn't even on the article yesterday, that lets me know the company is paying attention to us. If that's the case then let me be the first to say that I look forward to a PR about this new ink/solar technology for LKEN as well as a PR about an informercial.
http://greeneconcepts.com/business-journal-report/
I believe a lot of us are in agreement with you. If Lenny is simply gearing the ink/solar webpage for release/launch, then these next few weeks could be big! Could be and is are different words though. I'd really like to see this stock move forward and something unique to the market like the ink/solar product could be huge if done in conjuction with an informercial of the ink refill. Glad I have my 17 million shares on lock!
How successful does everyone think the new games, MyPraise, and possible more movie commercials will do for LFBG if the company runs them this Christmas? Can the stock move past .001 this fall?
What does everyone think of the marketing ideas I presented below?
I understand. I don't know if that will really make a difference but at least they will know their shareholders are losing patience and it might spur them to more action. We don't however know what is really going on behind the curtain. Who knows they may be lining up TV and magazine deals right now.
We all want to see LKEN do well. I have sent LKEN other e-mails regarding marketing ideas (i.e. marketing to government agencies through their supply catalogs). With regard to when they issue a PR, they probably won't until they have additional items to report. I am sure they felt the egg on their face after the many promises 7 or 8 months ago to include RiteAid and the $46 million TV deal.
Might I suggest that in lieu of simply sending them a daily e-mail for them to put out a PR, instead provide them ideas that might assist them and ultimately all of us. You have a kit. Perhaps there's a group of people that could use it. Forward them the name of a business or better yet purchasing managers you might know. Their staff is only so large so perhaps they don't know about all of the possible conventions out there whereby they might be able to advertise. Forward them a link.
Maybe the school where your kids or neighbors kids go might like to save money in this economy. Forward the school the link to Accubrites page and offer an alternative.
Perhaps we could use this forum to generate ideas to help promote LKEN, even if it's simply thinking of companies/contacts to forward to LKEN or companies/contacts whereby we could forward Accubrite's page to them. That would better assist Accubrite, the end customer and ultimately the shareholders better than simply sending in repeated e-mails of when they will PR.
Who knows, you forward and e-mail to forwards it to someone else and it might end up in the hands of someone with clout that works in a Fortune 500 company. Who knows?
Here are some additional ideas I have about various entities that might be able to benefit from LKEN. Let me know what you think. (If anyone else has ideas, go ahead and jot them down too).
1. Perhaps LKEN could use their ink to help local newspapers.
2. Local churches and schools.
3. Non-profit organizational use.
4. Local FVW, Shriners or other local organizations.
5. National fraternities and sororities.
6. College universities
7. Car dealerships.
8. Hospitals, insurance companies, speciality care doctors.
9. Apartment rental offices
10. Local Chamber of Commerce Offices
11. Talk with local repairmen, carpet cleaners, movers etc... about LKEN and how their company could save on advertising/printing.
12. Beauty salons, Photographers (they print out a lot of large color advertisements all the time).
13. Local SBA (Small Business Association) members.
14. Other local professional organizations.
15. Key tourist spots who spend millions on advertisements.
16. Forward Accubrite's information to local magazine of whom you might subscribe.
17. Political or local headquarters. When elections ramp up, a lot of printing will be done with regard to fliers etc...
If we have direct contacts in any of the above venues, we could forward contact names, e-mail addresses and phone numbers to Accubrite. We could also call Accurbrite and provide the information directly. This is a money saver and businesses will probably listen to you, especially if you already have an in.
Try this approach instead to garner better success for us all. Thanks for listening.
I really hope LKEN seriously looks at government sales. This is the absolute perfect time for this.
Yeah I appreciate it. Hopefully LKEN considered some of these things already. If not, I'm glad I could help them focus on greater areas of success.
I just sent Accubrite the following message to their webpage:
"Has LKEN contacted any government or military institutions regarding this product? If they were able to save the tax payers millions of dollars versus purchasing HP, Canon, Epson etc... that would be huge.
Having served in the Air Force for 7 years, I know the webpage www.gsa.gov is where most governmental and military agencies order their supplies from. If you could advertise there, that would be huge.
This could also have notoriety in the U.S. bases around the world.
Finally, has LKEN considered advertising in the Entertainment Book? Their webpage is:
http://www.entertainment.com/discount/home.shtml."
I feel pretty fortunate to be able to slowly build shares in the company before they launch the TV campaign. I am sure that is the next step.
Hopefully they learned the lessons from last winter and will solidify actions before putting them in a PR. I like how they owned up to their mistakes in the PR earlier this year including what happened with RiteAid. I don't even think retail is necessary at this point as long as they can get on TV and get exposure at trade shows to purchasing agents.
Also if they could get a government contract which would help the tax payer save money, that would be huge as well.
Lenny and his team should get to even more trade shows where the purchasing agents are. If they could even get this product shown to a lot of mid-cap companies that would be huge. That's the first step toward getting a foot in the door with the Fortune 500 companies. Imagine if a company could carve out a few hundred thousand in savings in ink alone or even more.
Mid to large sized companies along with TV informercials should be this companies target. They could still to MLM too but it should be in combination with the other actions.
We don't know though, that could be their plan. I e-mailed them about doing QVC and advertising to even larger businesses. Who knows what's in the making.
It's almost astounding that one can buy the kits for $29 or even $49 someplaces yet the company themselves charge $99. That's a little much for a product that still has not hit mainstream or even a nationwide commercial yet. Perhaps that's going to be their stick once they get on TV. That their webpage sells it for $99 yet the TV price is $49.
Even that would work but we have to get on TV. With the back to school sales about to be in full swing, I don't know what they are waiting for.
I submitted about 20 game ideas to Troy and he responded that he liked them. Some of the ideas include angels vs. demons 3D, a strategic game of survival with minimal food and a Bible, a preacher who attempts to put street kids on the right path etc...
Troy stated all of the ideas were good and that he appreciated the list but it takes money to make all of the games. Seems that his heart is in the right place, he just needs the resources.
I would agree. Getting a commercial on TV to advertise this product for this economy is definitely a no-brainer. The economic woes alone over the past few weeks should make this sky rocket. I agree with you sterlman1, the time to strike and strike hard is now.
The packaging alone sets it over and above anything else on the market. Lenny's voice is sellable too as well as his passion. A QVC or ShopatHome commercial is long overdue. If people go nuts over coins, baseball cards, jewelry, and clothes, they'll eat this up.
Lenny hired a bunch of big guns to help him out over the past 6 months or so. Hopefully something positive comes from all of this and we aren't at this same level this time next year.
I can't watch it while at work but if it's the one where he's seated in a chair talking one-on-one, I believe that's from 2007 or so.
Hey Everyone. Product wise, what games does everyone think that LFBG should develop to really boost sales? Can you describe what type of Christian game you would develop to rake in the masses?
I would definitely like to see an informercial. That would very much support their MLM plan and avoid the need to do retail. The product is a good one it just needs to get to the masses. It is even packaged cool. I ordered a kit for my father this week and look forward to his feedback when it arrives next week.
I also believe that if word gets out about LKEN, many small to mid companies that purchase HP, Epson, Canon etc... will realize that their ink can be cheaper and more brilliant with LKEN. It would be nice for Lenny to really stress the cost savings during this day and time for both personal use and business. If that happens along with an informercial......well.......those who stocked up on the .0002's should be quite happy.
Lenny doesn't seem like a fluff type of guy and I look forward to the release of his next PR. Thankfully, he's given me time to accumulate more shares on the cheap.
Now imagine if LKEN really DOES take a chunk out of the print cartridge market and if businesses and even Fortune 500 businesses realize the potential cost savings. That would be humongous!!!
On the radio interview, I like how Lenny stated that the ink actually puts out a better gloss than what comes standard than HP, Epson, Brother and some of the other popular inks. Also, Lenny states that on the support page of the webpage, the site lists the support available for the inks, which include most of them on the market. Lenny himself is the final approver of the .pdf help files that support the ink refills for each person's particular cartridge. Seems like the station supports most of the ink out on the market.
Everything is ready for this company to explode. They just need exposure through an informercial then BOOM!!!
During the radio interview, Lenny noted that he would like to partner with whomever is willing to help him obtain TV infomercial time and is willing share profits with that individual. Imagine if LKEN could get onto ShopatHome or QVC. That would be sweet. It's even sweeter knowing that Lenny is really looking to that as the next big step.
I hope to get more at .0002 before that step happens. I don't have a lot of shares but I guess 13.7 million is not too bad.
Also I did a Google search for refill ink and unfortunately I did not see Accubrite appear on any of the pages. Hopefully that will change. One good infomercial and the triple zero's are a thing of the past!!!
I ordered the kit from Skymall around 11:30 pm EST last night. They had 9 in inventory at the time. I talked with the lady on the phone to place the order. It ended up being $43 after tax and shipping. Not too bad.
Could you sticky the radio link?
I just ordered the kit from Skymall for my dad and he should receive it in 7 business days. I'll let everyone know the results. Seems to be less expensive from Skymall than from the Accubrite webpage.

Moderator, anyway we can sticky this link?

There were a couple of extra characters in the original posted webpage.
Thanks 17 for the screenshots and the movies. I hope this is the beginning of bigger things to come.
There were hardly any posts on the Yahoo page either. I think a lot of people are waiting to see the benefits of all the debt, extra shares, hiring new people, stock incentives and plans. There was a professional wrestler, Scott Hall, who coined the phrase "Don't Sing It, Bring It!" I believe the stockholders have reached the limit of the patience. Now that the company no longer has to solely focus on the 2 year audit, they need to really market some excitement back into their product line along with provide some security to shareholders that they are aggressively pursuing sales. We haven't heard much about the products, Mypraise, or Christmas sales since the March PR about the new games.
I know a lot of positive things are probably happening behind the scenes however all that the shareholders are being told from the company is all the financial problems it is having and not a word about how they intend to sell their games. We never heard about a big Easter push last April that was promised. We still haven't heard that much about MyPraise 2.0 except that it was scheduled for September release. I have my doubts about the Sept release unless I hear otherwise. I know when companies release new video games, we oftentimes see screenshots. I would like to see additional screenshots of the new games and/or screenshots of the new MyPraise 2.0. We are in the dark and I'd like to see continual progression of the company during the year. To only really have a marketing push October - December will not cut it. Year-round sustainability is a must for the company to flourish and for shareholders to have faith in the company. PRs with substance and follow-through would go a LONG way in building faith in LFBG, increasing excitement, increasing sales and ultimately increasing PPS.
This is all just IMHO!!!
Hopefully we get some news soon. If the company is taking on all this debt, it would be nice to see why. A really positive PR would be nice.
I see Scott12. Sounds like the best thing is a wait and see. It would be nice to even see LFBG get to .004 by Christmas. Anything above that would be a bonus. I would expect the PR's to start rolling fast and furious by October. You never know though. One thing we can say about Troy is he certainly is motivated and if there is a glimmer or sliver of hope for LFBG to really knock the ball out of the park, he'll find it. The question is how many strikeouts at the plate will he have to endure until he reaches that point. We shareholders are feeling the effects with every swing and pitch.
Hard to imagine but there is another sub-penny stock trading at .0001 that just issued this statement today:
Article IV of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation will be amended to decrease the number of authorized shares from 5,000,000 to 4,000,000 shares.
“We are committed to driving the company forward and delivering shareholder value. We believe it is in the best interest of our shareholders to decrease the number of authorized shares at this time."
Imagine if LFBG issued a statement similiar to that. That would be awesome!
It would be nice to hear about LKEN doing some big marketing pushes. I still can't believe why we haven't heard news of TV commercials or additional retail marketing. The firm had so much news coming out November - February then silence for the most part except for new hires.
Does LKEN even publish their numbers with the SEC? IMO relying strictly on MLM is a dangerous thing.
Yeah and our Congress still has yet to learn how to work together for the betterment of the country.
I wish I had more confidence that LFBG management truly had an end game in sight that benefits both the company and investors. Things take money yes, but I just don't understand why things took such a drastic downturn following the Nov. 16 webinar. The stock had so much promise.
