The Road to NASDAQ videos are all still there though talking about the price being near $7 for the uplist
Perhaps you can agree that Settled, does not mean basely either. It simply means we want the least expensive way out. It is not an admission of wrong doing, BUT NEITHER is it an admission of innocence. Because there's really no denying that Rory was misleading, the videos are still on VERB's website to demonstrate such.
TDA finally updated held at 1.08

Personally I think Rory would do well to cut the wild spending for at least 1 quarter to demonstration a couple things, good sense on financial controls, and real profitability levels. This would probably boost interest with investors.
The next quarter results will help us understand that. The PPS hovering just above the min listing requirement, with the charts slowly trending down, certainly do suggest another RS unless the quarterlies offer a reason to reverse the trend. Odds are that the adoption of the current styles of interactive video is nowhere near the billions people thought it might generate. I do think there still is some merit in the idea, but careful case studies of different approaches to using it might guide future implementation. For example, we know people generally prefer short videos, when we see a video that is over 2 minutes long, let alone over 10 minutes, if we are in a hurry, we skip it thinking we will go back later, but never do. So capitalizing on guiding people across quick advertisements with a feel of interactive AI will keep them interested. At least that's an example to test. Imagine a bunch of scenarios and test them all. Maybe it turns out interactive video interest was just speculation and not ever going to be a thing of significance, so pivot the whole company to alternate innovations, but don't keep beating a dead horse, if it turns out to be one.
It may be that Rory has to admit his interactive CRM idea was something he'd love but the market in general is far less excited about. If so stop petting a beloved idea and go make money.
Saving dry powder for after the call....
You mean they are not all swimming on a highway in Utah?
The 'next big thing' has been very successful at generating hope, while looking backwards at the long list of nothing burger next big things, should be sobering. Also a 3 year look at the stock chart is telling too. Trusting in Rory's word has been one of the largest mistakes in my life, the whole time my IT instinct was telling me there was little demand or interest in the market going this direction, but I let myself fall for his words ignoring the many warnings of other sensible investors like Tenkay, who was shouting the whole time that the fundamentals did not support the narrative. Live/Learn. The best lessons cost the most, I learned mine.
I'm guessing you are on track with this sentiment, and that if Verb is to grow, it is more likely going to be due to continued absorption of other companies, thereby creating a large marketing conglomerate with large coalesced revenue.
The only way I've been able to recover even a small amount of my not insignificant losses, has been trading it, now that I know what moves the needle and which direction. If all the other longs did the same volume would attract investors, I suspect.
I figure that If I can average 0.5% gains a week that's about 25% / year, at that rate in about 8-10 years I can recover my losses if Verb just keeps percolating.
I wonder if that Oracle Deal or Microsoft Integration, or Odoo, or Marketo partnership are generating BILLIONS yet? I wonder if they are generating more than a few thousand if any?
Occasional PRs would be fine if they'd deliver as promised, on time, and profitably.
Is 30 days a real thing?
Wasn't the number 1.5M floated around here a few months ago?
I'm not saying it is profoundly positive nor negative, just that getting really excited should be coupled with an understanding of the nature of the client adoption. Nothing more.
One of the problems with assuming that the new client bulletin boards mean significant adoption is that most big companies have so many divisions and departments, that simply can't be aware of each other's activities. So if one small (or large) department wants to try out a new product, it can look like the whole company has adopted the product suite, and everyone at the vendor company does backflips. It COULD BE that the entire company is complying with a new campaign based out of the marketing department, but often it's not, if not accompanied with a PR. I've sat in that seat many times, I'd download a demo copy of a software for my team to test, and the next thing I'd get an email from the company asking if they could use my company logo in their list of clients. NO you can't, that's up to the legal department, pursuant to significant partnership agreement.

Rory Values Declaration to Shareholders
http://nfusz.com/super/ajax/ajax2.php?mediaid=iWV0fA
I met a guy last weekend that worked for BombBomb, talking about how they use call to action links in video CRM advertising.
They are even integrated into Salesforce on the App Exchange.
https://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=a0N3A00000FMdJCUA1
For all of the supposed integrations with some of the largest corporations in the world, I'm still waiting to ever randomly come across verblive on FB or anywhere else on the internet. That has not happened even once for me personally.
I don't understand your expensive plan to average down. I did that too a couple years ago, and it cost me dearly. Why not take the same investment money and put it in a known solid/profitable stock, rather than a lottery ticket, with consistently poor pps performance?
I felt it was trying to buy myself out of a terrible investment by giving the same crappy company even more more. Sure the investment there is stuck at a terrible loss (some stock being bought near the all time high), but buying more prior to the CEO delivering as strongly suggested, seems imprudent. Now I just flip what I have already lost my a$$ on, an effort to slightly improve my position, in the event it ever does move up again.
My Favorites
'Call to Action' should work there
People have been saying that every quarter for years, next Q or next 2 Qs while Rory spends at a ferocious rate and takes awards while screwing longs.
I'll raise you one, everyone has been asking if these are still around....
The 'Offering Price' is a great one
https://nfusz.com/super/ajax/ajax2.php?mediaid=iWp5eg&utm_content=85047699&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&hss_channel=tw-1861240566
Only 3 weeks for VERB to be a real player in the 2020 election cycle.
We won't see anything about Salesforce until he comes up with another big name to claim to have a partnership with and people start saying, hey remember the Salefsorce launch?
If I can recover even 50% of what I'm down, I'll be dancing, bourbon in hand.
Everyone wants to have their names associated with Tier A companies, but it doesn't mean a thing other than being in a partner channel (you still do all the work), unless you see either a contract saying Salesforce/MS/whatever to signs $1B contract with VERB, or Tier A Company launching new service line with VERB. (OR a buyout of course).
Just saying that you have an agreement with a Big company literally means nothing in and of itself. For the life of me I don't understand why people start quivering with anticipation every time they hear MS or Salesforce or Marketo or Oracle or Odoo, etc. in the same sentence as VERB. If their are no dollars attached to sentence, I add to the hopefuls pile of DD, if there are Percentages attached I put it at the bottom of the pile. Percentages just mean, "you can get your name on our website in an obscure page few will ever find if they don't already know what to look for in the first place, but if they do, we get a small slice of the gains(at nearly 100% profit), so we have zero risk and great margins for doing virtually nothing." This is no cause for excitement, as we all have observed over and over and over. When Rory opens a PR with, We just signed a $1B deal with Salesforce and another with Microsoft, ... pop the cork on the bottle.
It's not really about where VERB may be someday, for many it's about the massive insult of Rory getting fantastic compensation while demolishing share holders he promised otherwise. He was strongly suggesting that in short order the price would climb from 10X today's price to even greater heights, when it instead went to all time lows..... so he takes millions in personal profit. Maybe Verb does take off, but ONLY then should Rory take personal gains ALONG WITH Longs, not INSTEAD OF. That is simply NOT Quality behavior.
You're right about the past, all those years of saving into retirement funds that investing in Rory stuffed his pockets with.
At least if Verb gets pushed back to the OTC Rory can deliver that forward split he promised, and maybe longs can get a few lost dollars back out
Don't you think the Mutual fund group, vanguard I think, is going to pull out soon if this keeps going down since they entered?
I too have lost all faith in Rory, you can only promise and fail so many times, but then rub it in as he was happy to take enormous compensation for deceiving his longs and spending more than he can deliver. I feel like he was drunk on the self aggrandizement of his own idea of video crm, that has not gotten the traction that he was just sure was inevitable.
On top of that he had a fan base of people love to buy stock market lottery tickets, that think if a salesman from a tier A company called them, or they get an app placed in the company's add-on website, their valuation is suddenly billions of dollars. Ridiculous. It takes a lot to be worth billions, the preponderance of companies never come close.
There's a reason the lottery system is soooo successful, there is a long supply of perpetually hopeful people that never win.
Zoom Stumbled, well at least they are in the market while Verb does what?, signs up trials of mostly no name companies, few have ever heard of but pats themselves on the back with an expensive digital bill board on a local highway. Big expense, little value.
Marketo, Oracle, Ncompass, Major Tom, Salesforce, Microsoft,.... American Idol the list of nothing burgers is discouraging.
How much revenue was this one supposed to bring in?
Everyone was shaking with excitement
