Disagree slightly on a couple points... The $1.1 mil spent , in my opinion, wasn't spent wisely to maximize the returns. Instead of a "mass" mailing, which in and of itself cost a considerable sum, the scope of the program should have been limited to grades 6 thru 12 in areas of sufficient income (eg. where people had computers in their homes to access the web site), or in other words more "targeted". Moreover the distribution itself should have functioned more on a "avon lady" model (for lack of a better term) where anyone could conceivably become a distributor with profit sharing mitigating the need for a network, plus further reducing the need for an anonymous mailer. (see link in post #44531 for further explanation of the model). CCI was structured with a distributorship. Tsig.com wasted a lot of time and money before trying again to reform the old distributorship network, and by that time, tsig decided it then couldn't afford to do so per the old model without ever attempting a much simpler system. So in gist I basically agree with the brunt of your post(s), but IMO the failure of the LL deal was one more of mis-allocation, mismanagement, and insufficient focus rather than one of inadequate fiscal resources. As to your other posts pertaining to share price.... all I'll say is that the fat lady hasn't sung yet. Till she does, I'll wait for the SEC filings which actually are something I anticipate this time around, rather than dread like previously quarters. Or in other words, I'll forgo the dirge unto at least May 15th....irrespective of the share price. z
