If you try VerbLIVE yourself some of your question
Post# of 32642
You actually don't have to have a company or sell products to try VerbLIVE. All the investors I have met, have tried it a number of times. Just seems a smart thing to do if one is thinking of making a serious investment long term.
VerbMail, Marketplace, Teams, etc all use VerbLIVE. A VerbLIVE event on MarketPlace is similar to a VerbLIVE NewAge, Market America, Zyia, etc. event
There are 1000's a VerbLIVE events happening now held by customers Verb has announced. There were also 40 companies selling products on the beta version of MarketPlace all the while they were adding new features and functionality that a number of investors found.
With many SaaS companies you can't even try their products, but that doesn't stop people from investing. Some many companies to choose from.
The company you mentioned Netccentric, I go to their website and there is no 'try it now' button. But there is a link to another company that some investors wouldn't know the relationship. I don't. I thought it was odd that they said they had ecommerce and then I go some other place. I wasn't going to waste your time asking questions as if I'm seriously considering an investment, I'll do a few hours of research. But when I click the "Try for Free" button, it asked me to register as a seller. But what if I don't have a company or products to sell? Same dilemma for those shy about trying sales tools.
Nuffnang technology is an add-on to Facebook. A number of sellers are looking for Meta alternatives. A number of enterprise companies won't touch Meta for a number of reasons. What happens if Facebook all of a sudden, blocks Nuffnang? These are all questions I would do independent research on before I would invest. With any stock investors will have questions and concerns. Up to each investor to do their own DD and make their own investment decisions.
I do believe with certain new technology you need other companies to help change culture, behavior, market, etc. If Tesla was the only company selling electric cars as an example I believe it would be a slower road and I believe the stock would sit lower. Counter intuitive for some not in sales and marketing and plenty probably believe the opposite, which I'm OK with. I have a sell order for Tesla at 1197 for them as Elon and I are selling.
