To all,
You probably have seen this on RB. The following on this stock is very small. What will it take to get the attention of more people? Not a lot that hasn't been mentioned before.

Wed. ~1:00am mdt
No projections on the next 6 months but things are looking pretty good. They just need to finalize some contracts, keep evaluating new ideas from Butch and get on the Nasdaq so that there will be a huge audience to buy the ideas of a great coach. If this stock went to 30$ then Butch Harmon would be worth 30,000,000 dollars in 5 years. Can we wait that long to get there. Will there be enough products to bring to a golf maniacal world? Can the company market it all?
Here are some notes from the meeting. I finally have the time to do something with them.
Well, I have finally got some time to write down some thoughts about the AGM.
All the resolutions past, the most important one that the deal with Butch Harmon is a go. 200000 shares each year for 5 years. If Butch isn't signed on this company is for the dogs IMHO. I think progress hinges on his involvement as he will pass on new product ideas, which will be the lifeblood of the company.
The Golf Digest magazine will be doing an Advertorial (sp). This hopefully bring in more interest and hence revenues.
There will be an ad in the British Open program (magazine) and in the Ryder cup program. These will cost about 20 and 34 thousand each. They will be opposite articles with Butch Harmon.
There has been a strong response to the Putting Insight and there are deals in the works. It will be release in the next couple of months, I believe.
Butch was to talk about and show the videos on Sky TV at the US Open (for which he is the golf commentator).
Does anyone get SkyTv. I thought it was a European cable consortium but I am not sure.
They plan on doing some Direct marketing on the Golf Channel for the videos and they will see if how that works out.

There is talk of doing 2 more videos in time for Christmas. Tiger Woods and Adam Scott are two of Butch's pupils. Hopefully there will be some sort of talk about them (probably not with them as they cost a bloody fortune to get!!).
There are other companies that have been in contact with the company about using the videos as promotional items but nothing has been signed yet. This could be very lucrative but we await confirmation.
Their Far East connection is scaling back a bit as he sees the economy not being as strong.

Conjecture on my part here.
There was interesting talk about possibilities in Japan as a lot of the golf courses are (or have)going bankrupt. Being sold at a fraction of the dollar they cost. Not that Firelight would be directly involved but .... hmm. Another Butch Harmon school? Could we become involved? I am not sure how but that would be great!

I think this company is a diamond in the rough but I am not sure what it will take for big time investors to take notice. It seems like a real coup for the company to be involved with Butch and I think that he will want the company to succeed, so I believe he will assist in promotion as best he can. I hope he will put a link on his website to sell the videos or to Firelight's site. Makes sense to me! The cost of a day's instruction at his school is phenomenally expensive and to be able to get a set of videos for $50 seems like the way I would go!!

Sorry if this seems a bit mixed up but it is late and I already had to do a lot of writing of report cards. Brain is a little scattered right now!
