Beta Cassettes and Bake OffsI'm going to put it out on the line right now...after the NCS4 bake off, we will get a clearer idea about this company.
If they lose to Evolv- which I really doubt will happen- the stock plummets to .20 cents, and we either have to areange another high profile prove ourselves, or make some serious tweaks to the tech.
If the bake-off is inconclusive, it's the status quo doldrums of mediocrity until we get a sale or two.
These first two results would also make me believe the bake off was fixed, IMO.
If we win the bake off, the sales and and marketing team (and PE, IMO) sink or swim with this company. Very simple. They have the tech, they have the proof it's works, and works better than its main competitor, and they need to sell.
Sell, sell, freaking sell. Nowhere to hide. No excuses to make. They either ink deals and drive up the share price or they need to find another occupation. Evolv is signing people left and right. 16.9 million for a glorified metal detector. We allegedly have JCI, Cisco and Raytheon in our corner? Then squeeze every ounce of goodwill that you can out of them. Why in the holy hell are JCI and Cisco not slapping their stickers on MSG units and selling them on their websites if NCS4 gives us the trophy?
After the bake off results, its time to stop being a bunch of sissies. Man up, put on your big boy pants and conquer this market, FTLOFG.
