I have engaged a fair amount of clients since starting in the business of Public Relations, Social Media, Website building and what have you… One thing that I stress up front before beginning any program for any client is: The success of this program is just as dependent on you as it is me.

This simply means that an engaged client will make the program work better and faster. I have had many clients that started off the first couple of weeks like a house afire only to fizzle out in week three and beyond.

This was not the case with Jedi Mind, Inc.; Brent Fouch, the CEO, has been engaged since day one and his enthusiasm for building the business at Jedi Mind, Inc. has been unwavering and has actually grown stronger.

Excerpt from my book, New Thinking for Publicly Traded Companies:

Like it or not, even if your company makes tin cans or something else that is not “sexy”, in order to be successful in today’s world YOU MUST BECOME AN INTERNET MARKETER… Do not mix up Internet Marketer with Network Marketer. Once, someone wrote in a Twitter “tweet” “Misery, thy name is Internet Marketer”. I can understand why someone would say that because generally, Internet marketing and Network marketing gets mixed up. Network marketers sell a “program” that is supposed to make you rich. They are most often pyramid schemes that few make any real money with. I will explain two types of Internet Marketing later.

HubSpot pointed out in a recent webinar something I already knew but nevertheless, it made a big impression on me: With each passing day, more and more people are using search engines to find supplies, goods, services, information and just about everything else. Would it not stand to reason that people are now using search engines (which means they are probably using Google) to find companies to invest in?

Given the sorry state that most “stock message boards” and “stock chat rooms” are in, it is an undeniable fact that investors are seeking their information elsewhere.

This Is The Single Hottest Penny Stock In The World Right Now

Evidently, he plans to “trade” Jedi Mind’s stock… good luck to all. I am just the web page guy…

Disclosure: No Position

I have just about finished up the new Jedi Mind, Inc. website. This site gives the company the ability to interact with their site visitors, subscribers, shareholders and other interested parties. The old, static website could not provide this functionality.

Also, I have built contemporary Search Engine Optimization (SEO) into the site as well. This will be an ongoing process…

The Company’s management team is quite pleased with the results.

Have you ever heard of a “Perception Report”? OK, I will get into that in a minute or two…

A company’s performance in the marketplace with respect to stock volume and price is by in large, a function of investor’s perception of the company. I have spoken with countless CEOs and other management team members over the last few years and nearly all felt strongly that their stock was undervalued given the underlying fundamentals of the company.

Often times especially with micro and small cap companies, there is a “disconnect” between the company and the stock. This disconnect can be in either direction. I have seen companies that continue to perform on the business front while their stock goes completely unnoticed. Other companies have a business that is speculative at best with virtually no underlying fundamentals that trades heavily and gets a lot of attention. Why is this?
