Based on the many years I have followed this stock, I would say overwhelmingly...it is due to lack of advertising. This company decided that it was more important to get a few bottles on shelves all over the world as opposed to slowing rolling it out and include marketing and advertising with it.

It was the arrogance of wanting to be "world wide" that has sunk this battleship. You can put the product on every shelf in every country in every store but if no one knows about it....no one will buy it. Consumers are not willing to "waste" money on a product they know nothing about. The company depended on store employees to love their product and do the marketing for them. Store employees could care less about WNBD. They just want to do their job and go home, most being overworked as it is.

It has been proven that even people in close proximity of WB head quarters have never even heard of Winning Colours...that speaks volumes imo. The "grass roots" effort that this ceo tried to convey was the "honorable" way to go about business was admirable when Andy and Barney ruled Mayberry but those days are long gone.

Most frustrating here is that the CEO saw his "my way or the highway" wasn't working and yet he refused to change course...hence the big gouge in the side of the ship.

Its not about the "stuff". It works...its about the mngmnt. Failed mktg plan...failed cash mngmnt....they are really a 1 trick poney and they can't get out of their own way. This one is on mngmnt. When you run out of cash you let staff go...you try and blog your way to success...thats a bust. This one like another company lets call B that just can't find their way . There isn't much you can do when you pay yourself and a gal pal and leave nothing more for marketing and brand development. Gotta love these .0001 er's ..they never fail to disappoint.
