From another board, all looks passable looking at what PCM said last time round or a possible ramp

I have been watching this the lt few weeks and was recently doing research
As we all know the results are due soon and key to driving the share price will be the growth rate in Q3 and Q4 2005 v Q1 and Q2 as this is a growth share.
From various contacts in Shanghai I have gathered the following:

a) The Watsons Personal stores have made dedicated space in 131 stores
of between 25 and 30m2 for dedicated PCM personnel using DVD based infocomercials and that this is proving to be a big uplift in sales to young women re the two key products which are Rapid White and the self adhesive feather bra. Indicative store uplifts are between 600 and 720% but this varies by location. The strongest uplifts have been in Shanghai.

b) Indicative impact growth of the infocommerials are that more impact is made from the 15 minute variants than those of 5 minutes so there is to be more longer ones that allow a full demo of the product. Recently several further products have featured and these are cosmetic based. Of about each commercial the response depends on the time of day and thus targeting is paramount. Peak reponses generate approx 150 calls in the 15 minutes after the infocommercial with 72% converson rate. Indicative revenue growth is 15 to 22% month on month.

This would on the face of it be good reason to invest.

I am confident, but I will choose to ignore this as a ramp.
I never trust anything that includes the words "my contacts in".
I look forward to the results, and hope I am over cautious in ignoring this post, but I think we will see good growth anyway.

I agree the sp is holding up well with out news. The problem is any positive news this is going to rocket so you have to be by your pc or be happy with your holding.

hewittalan6 - 08 Mar 2006 16:49 - 489 of 572

Oh I'm happy with my holding.
I've never had as many shares in one company!!!
Granted they add up to about a tenners worth, but if I bought anymore I'd need a bigger calculator!
Dripped into this over a period of about 5 months with my silly gamble money, so it is a considerable holding for gamble money standards.

sidtrix - 08 Mar 2006 16:55 - 490 of 572

same here, this is def a silly gamble money share ... if only the share price was around 1... I would be a trillionaire

PCM is in demand or punters are holding I some times do a dummy run and you can't buy more than 2k on line when it was .7 you could have got 20k's worth.

biffa18 - 08 Mar 2006 20:23 - 492 of 572

The only thing that gives this share some credibility is the management seem to be on the ball a bit they dont come out with any rash statements/promises etc but if u look at it from the accounts /chart side then we are in the poo big time coz they dont look good saying that i topped up now hold 12.5 million must be mad ...as driver says any pos news and it will fly ...be lucky

squidd - 09 Mar 2006 09:52 - 493 of 572

driver: What a difference a day makes. I bought 2.5M on line on the 6th - no problem, bringing my ISA total to 10M. I agree with all the sentiments expressed here; something seems to be in the wind, and as has already been pointed out, despite the huge No of shares in circulation, there would be hardly enough to go round if the Chinese themselves took a fancy to them.

And it goes on Ramp or no Ramp? from another board DYOR


According to my contacts PCM are close to signing a deal with a company called Backchannelmedia.
Backchannel specialise in DRTV media enabling technologies such as the following that have been outlined to me:

Secure renewable direct response television (DRTV) time periods on most major cable networks, television stations, and other DRTV distribution platforms, including cable advertising and direct broadcast satellite (DBS).

Crunch your sales data in real time through our suite of custom developed software applications, thus increasing your chances of success. Backchannelmedia is the only television media buying and planning agency in the U.S. that can provide your company with web access to these robust web-based reporting tools.

Leverage our relationships at approximately a thousand television stations, hundreds of cable systems, and over one hundred cable networks. Backchannelmedia can access DRTV paid programming inventory on both national cable and local media outlets that will be right for your direct response infomercial.


Target the demographics and markets that will help your DRTV media buying campaign outperform all the rest. Clients can monitor campaigns and match against Nielsen Research market information and other demographic attributes, bundled together in easy to navigate reports in STARS, from a variety of licensed content providers.

Counter program and intelligently schedule your TV home shopping or DRTV commercial through the use of our custom television program listings data feed known as the TV Media Planner application. Uncover pockets of DRTV opportunity by aggregating viewers based on filtered criteria.

Using the benfits of Backchannel is is believed that PCM can rapidly expand the penetration of sales generation from the infomercials and analyse the sales and penetration more rapidly.
