I went back through the last 3 months of PR's just to see if I missed anything. I liked this part, might have seemed insignificant at that time....

Reid Wood, Kronotex U.S.A., stated, "We have selected D&D to manufacture our displays for an upcoming project because of the level of service and dedication we've received in the past. Joe, our project manager at D&D, always goes above and beyond what we ask. We are extremely pleased with our relationship."

LEVEL OF SERVICE AND DEDICATION WE'VE RECEIVED IN THE PAST.
PROJECT MANAGER ALWAYS GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT WE ASK.

Good receipe for referals when new companies call past companies before doing business with D@D to find out how they did or are doing fulling contracts. Little bitty things appear to be heading to much bigger ones....

So AGAIN where did the $100M number actually come from?

"it comes down to jd's knowledge
of his customers .. he takes full responsibility
for not knowing about the market conditions last
fall"

So last fall he was clueless, and now he is omniscient? And with regard to his knowledge of customers, his customers have always been retailers. What is his knowledge of actual consumers? I'd say none... except for his days running the deli/sandwich with Harrs. I could be wrong... when has he actually sold high volume products directly to consumers?

"100M is for full penetration"

I've heard the CC. And again, what is the source of the $100M estimate? I guess that we should assume it is of his own origination then? What is JD's qualification to predict the market size? Does he hold a degree in marketing? Does he have an MBA? 20 years experience in creating and marketing new products? Has he conducted marketing surveys to determine the product's potential?

Or did he lick his finger, stick it in the air, and come up with the $100M number?
