Absolutely Dan. Thank you for your positive attitude. I want this INCA baby to be successful as everyone else. I may bring up the 900lb gorilla once in a while but no harm intended, just curious of my investment.
I know this is old. But I can't wait for when Stacy picks up where she left off. Or to see her new agenda
A Diversified Approach The Company employs innovative marketing techniques to promote its lifestyle apparel and plans to develop a network of Inca-branded retail stores, supported by high impact advertising, on-line sales, brand building and customer loyalty programs.
Inca has gained invaluable free advertising through coverage of its apparel lines in leading national and international fashion magazines such as InStyle, Vogue, Town & Country, Glamour, Cosmopolitan, Lucky, Elle, Travel & Leisure, Oprah, Maxim and Esquire.
It has also received immense visibility and brand-building assistance from Hollywood celebrities who have been photographed wearing Inca apparel such as Carmen Electra, Jennifer Aniston and Denise Richards.
Inca works with nearly 100 upscale, global retailers who carry its high-fashion brand. These include Neiman Marcus, Barney’s New York, Bergdorf Goodman, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Henri Bendel, Fred Segal CA, Scoop New York, Jill Roberts, Everything But Water, Planet Blue, Victoria’s Secret and many others. The Company’s new Inca Junior apparel line is being showcased in its New York City store and its Inca Girls collection for girls ages 3 to 11 is available at Barney’s New York and 35 other retail stores nationwide. Barneys New York has been carrying Inca branded apparel for several years.
Retail Stores In addition to sales through upscale retailers, Inca is establishing its own network of retail stores. The Company recently opened a flagship store in New York City at 71st and Lexington Avenue that offers high-end personalized services such as custom sizing and selection and personal shopping. Another retail location will soon open in Miami’s trendy South Beach area and additional stores are planned for Atlanta, Los Angeles, Dubai, Macau, London, St. Tropez, Hawaii and Mexico. Inca plans to open between four and ten retail stores by 2010 along with a New York City showroom.
New Product Lines The Company also plans to launch new product lines (jewelry, intimate apparel, furniture, etc.) that will leverage its growing brand name and drive incremental sales. Co-branding events with the media and with wholesalers in the US and abroad will be explored as avenues for promoting brand visibility. The Company may also pursue select co-branding opportunities with athletic teams and motor sport racing teams.

I'm considering buying in on Monday -- you seem very positive, do you think it will reach $2 with the online store opening? If not, when do you see it reaching $1-2?
