IMPORTANT READ FOR ALL BNEZERS
As you all know, I have been to the company on 2 occasions now and have developed business relationships with some of the employees.
I'm going to make a couple of statements and then make a comment on it and would like anybody else to do so also.
1. I called Traci Paris at Bnez this morning, she is our marketing manager, and expressed my concern and many other shareholders that have either posted or pm me, to her about the placement of our software in the Comp Usa stores. I told her how many of us have gone into the stores and moved the software to the financial section next to windows on wallstreet and Quicken. She said she wasn't surprised that this happened because you never know who is putting the software up and they don't really know what it is for unless they really read it or have seen a demo. Traci told me to tell everyone that has gone into stores and moved the software a big THANK YOU. Every little bit of help that we can get on placing our software in the correct area is a great appreciation from the company.
Now my comments.
1. If you haven't gone out to your local Comp Usa store and checked were your PMA is, DO IT, and PUT IT WHERE WE BELONG, NOT UNDER SMALL BUSINESS SOFTWARE,( where I found mine at the store )
2. Remember this is my opinion, but I have been in sales retail and distribution for many years and Mr.D has all his life. It is great getting friends and associates to buy PMA off the Internet.
BUT I STRONGLY BELIEVE, VERY STRONGLY, THAT WE NEED TO HAVE ALL THE PMA SOFTWARE BOUGHT OUT OF RETAIL STORES RIGHT NOW IF POSSIBLE.
PMA will be hitting staples within a week, our 60 second video spot that is running in the stores is almost done, we have good coverage at Staples. Comp Usa on the other hand just went out and bought PMA from Ingram to see how it will sell, if it " SELLS THROUGH ", the term for the average or above average sales within 60 days, then they will really load up on it and give us major shelf space next to Windows-Quciken etc.
Just remember if we can get our software in 2,000 stores March and I don't think that is to lofty of a goal, we can have basic exposure to more than 500,000 people a day, minimum. That is only 200 visitors per store and we all know it is much higher than that.
SO WE NEED TO BUY PMA AND GET EVERYONE TO BUY FROM RETAIL STORES NOW. EGGHEAD-SPARCO- ALL THOSE WILL BE HERE MANY MONTHS FROM NOW, BUT THIS IS OUR BIG CRACK AT RETAIL AND WE NEED TO SMOKEM BABY
any thoughts appreciated
