Data Call Technologies (DCLT)

[shajandr]

What 'news' from the past several years would y'all have wanted ReclinerTimmy to have PR'ed that wasn't PR'ed?

DCLT is, at best, a small cottage biz that pays a modest salary and very modest bonus to ReclinerTimmy and his chum. They haven't acquired any significant new business and are still largely reliant on two (and really mostly ONE) client for the bulk of the modest and pretty stagnant revenue stream that, in the best of times, is just enough to cover their salaries, benefits, bonuses, and expenses.

The DCLT story peaked in 2013 and has gone nowhere since then. Every year, twice a year, they go to a 'Big Show' in Spring and Fall and come away with nothing or nothing of significance. This has been going on for about 5 years now.

DCLT is a moribund business with old tech that is nott amenable to any 'big upside surprise'. However, as all tech-related binnizz, it's always one day away from total obsolescence and collapse. So there is no good risk/reward in DCLT to attract even pennygamblers. Nott much big upside (as evidenced by the flatlined past 5 years) butt still 100 percent downside. As an example, one thing that killed the 2013 DCLT story is the widespread adoption of the smartphone. Peeps today get their ads and info (sports scores, stock data, etc.) from their phones - so adding this data to digital signage has lost much of its value as an attractant of eyeballs - peeps already know the scores, stock indexes, news, etc. Even driving, many peps have their smartphones on a holder in the dash of their cars or have it on the dash digital glass display(s). Soon they will have it on HUD (head-up display) on their windshield (some already do!). The main eyeball driver for digital signage is to see if a store is running a sale or to see the local temperature on the bank signs. Eyeballs are now fixed on smartphones which deliver personalized, screened and selected content tailored to each user's interests. There is simply little value add and certainly little growth in that for the type of data streaming DCLT offers to digital signage users. Digital signage may be growing, butt the need (or value add) of the type of data streams offered by DCLT as an eyeball attractant simply isn't growing and is likely to continue to decline (with wide adoption of HUD and AI smartphones that can break in and tell you about breaking news on your tracking stocks or sports as it predicts you'd like to hear them).

DCLT is AT BEST a moribund cottage biz for a couple of old guys who are trying to stretch ~OUTT their personal income and health care benefits until they hit Social Security/Medicare age. These two are nott superstars, nor even good businessmen. They are old retreads who are puffing the last few drags on a cigar hoping to maintain some salary and benefits to last them for another 10 years, if they are lucky!

As I wrote, these guys are nott in anyway superstars or even good businessmen who are going to build a dynamo or turn any heads in the biz or in the pennyscam stock players' club. That was in 2013 when this was all new and the world was very different and anything seemed possible in this area (pre universal smartphone).

Why no significant PRs in the past several years? Simple - no significant news to report. Same ole, same ole. Salary, bonus, benefits - smoking the last puffs of the cigar butt.

Mebbe DCLT could PR the only real news - each day's pizza combo order(s) and whether it a a Pepsi day, a Dr. Pepper day, or a Mountain Dew day at DCLT world headquarters.

As ReclinerTimmy would say "Happiness is simple: a good hot pizza, some Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, or Mountain Dew, and a major golf tournament live on the Big Screen in the DCLT HQ home golf entertainment center."
