YU,
Wasting your time to convince people to do the right thing.
At this age I learn you can not teach old dog new tricks.
After 4 th quarter, if we fail to make more revenue some people on this board will blame same cute models but not DA.

After economy, eBay, it is models who will be responsible to make more revenue but not the BRAV management.

I truly believe 3 rd quarter failure is totally DA's responsibility but we can not thro him under bus right now.

Give home two or three quarters more to prove himself.

After that I will take a loss and get out not because of DA or BrAV but, I don't want go through minute to minute details of FB likes or 50 reasons to buy ( yes in three quarters we will reach to fifty reasons from 32).LOL.

OL down lots for Q3. WOL had nothing, really, for Q3.

The overall quarter was a let down, but WOL was the only thing that actually increased in sales from Q3 2012 to Q3 2013. Saying it did nothing might not exactly be fair, as it did increase revenue from the year prior (not very much at all).

No biggie, I guess. More excuses and another direction for the company would be nothing new.

Advertising and Promotion $206,934. Q3 2012

Advertising and Promotion $176,731. Q3 2013

14.6% decrease in Advertising and Promotion but still a larger drop in revenue per percentage. Were the costs of commercial prodution and VivaVuva.com lumped into that number further driving down the cost of promotion in Q3 2013? I do not know.

I don't think anything was abandoned in Onlyleggings.com and WorldofLeggings.com in a change of direction. I think they were neglected because of the time of the year (traditional slower retail season than other quarters) and Danny focused on the new website production of VivaVuva.com. We will see how that translates into revenue for Bravada moving forward as the VivaVuva.com revenue performance will be reported in the future. Bottom line, Danny could not do all by himself. I have always said that is an issue.

I do not see any change of direction in the revenue numbers, I see a shift in focus for production of another revenue driver. It is to early to tell whether it was the right decision for the long term of the company, but the new website looks good. I prefer to have sustained growth with slow production with results over massive production and slower quarter, but I am not the CEO either. I am a shareholder and still a buyer at these prices, but I will be following Bravada more closely than I have been in the last 6 months.

Hopefully ebay doesn't start to compete with VV.

Ponder this: would a young woman, or even a teenage girl, brag to her friends that she got her fashionable clothes from ebay?

The VV brand is about fashionable clothes and attractive models. Women will be much more likely to brag about buying something from VivaVuva than from ebay.
