google.com ... without knowing your search terms i'd guess that those were the ads that chanelle posted, they were on a website that wasn't supposed to be public yet ... if memory serves?? ... but now they are posted openly on the website? [cag-global?] i doubt that we'll see them on tv in BC, or anywhere in this country for that matter ... even if we were watching -g- ... company is going to have to be careful with its advert expenditures for a while, Irix made some real nice ads yes, and i expect they are getting a little exposure where it counts in Asia, and cheaper ... probably much more targetted than broadcast television as well .... i like the airline magazine idea [if the price is right], you've got a captive audience of higher than average net worth individuals in an aeroplane. With the present state of SEG and the market mood of fourteen months ago, TC could now promote ftut/SEG to the moon and crank up the shareprinter to distribute at a healthy level the remainder of SEG over and above the 51% that cpt will hold long-term .... that would generate serious cash, enough to develop market share and a client base in a hurry .... but not in this market ... i think TC is astute enough to realise that he better keep the ftut/SEG share float nice and tight until enough convinced punters step up to at least get the thing established on Nasdaq smallcap ... can't milk the cow at this point, still raising a heifer calf .... but word of mouth is powerful advertising and in some ways the best of all - get the trading services up and cost-efficient and free of screwups, and the clients will start filtering in, referred to it by the broker allies ... if they like it, they'll tell their friends ... 'build it and they will come' theory.
