she's a PR person primarily, how could that entail an inside track to all the figures/names in the industry? I have absolutely no issue with her, but I just imagine that she is not the biggest name when she has to name drop on her bio.
"uh, hey bon jovi, its claire, i interviewed you like a year/five years/six months ago, you remember me? Yeah, i thought not. Whats that? you do five interviews a day? Oh okay, well I thought if... hello? bon jovi?"
"uh, hi bono, its claire... claire bullivant... you dont remember? oh i see, well i did do that interview with you... wait a minute, dont blow me off, didn't we have something special? oh, that was just a line you gave me... well i have you listed on my credentials so thats something... its not? well anyway i was thinking, next time you're in town.... hello?"
Okay, so maybe she strikes out with her rolodex... lets turn to the ZY Records roster. Matter of fact... heres a game. go back to audigist360.com: look at ashley rodriguez, a semi-finalist on American Idol, look at Ella Montclare who was #1 in her category for myspace hits or something. Thats the level these guys tout as high-level artists, and in some respects they are (they will ALWAYS be better at making music than you or I, but we aren't artists are we?). I see five artists on ZY's roster (and they are ALL, again, better than me), but I don't see anyone who is going to remotely make a splash. Now, you could hit lightning in the bottle, and end up with a justin bieber in there (incredibly doubtful, but hey, you guys keep hoping, thats all this is). More than likely, if ashley rodriguez, who was already WELL known to the lucrative US market with being among the elite few in a given season, couldn't really get off the ground on the back of RTG's offerings (the one service they decided to go live with, lol), then how will these acts do it? With what service? One that is launched a year from now potentially? And, the ultimate question, what kind of return does that give shareholders as of now? Lets say they kill it in a year, what you shareholders need to do is figure out what the market cap of a company like that looks like, then forecast how much dilution takes place after the "moratorium", does that equate value over the holding period? Would love to see some reasonable (can't stress that word enough) calculations.
