He's suggesting Next Step is wasting their marketing dollar by promoting on a morning sports show that likely isn't being viewed by people who would seek out a medical staffing company.



A similar fictional example would be advertising Nascar and WWE on the View.

Makes me think he was holding an advertiser back from the Score until he completed a new deal or he would use the guys money elsewhere, as he did. Smart in a street sense mentality and could be actionable in a court of law if Mitch ever could begin to think beyond what's for lunch.


That is a very important point that nobody here even ever talks about. I expected companies like Marconi and The Little Guys to stick with North but he's lost seemingly all of them. 670 pretty much kept everyone and I wonder what the back story is with this Next Step guy all of a sudden filling the coffers for north out of nowhere.

Here's when we know North's new venture is successful - when he gets the major advertising category that tries to reach men - beer. Why isn't Bud, or Fritz's employe - Miller - jumping in on this ratings juggernaut?

Easy - no ratings; no people watching; no people listening at this point.

When that changes, the local distributors get on board - why do you think they will do appearances at Justin's for free? Nobody is paying - so we'll build an audience -

the bigger question for Nort' would be:

Why haven't you put Fritzy on?

Are you afraid?

Vanity venture for a meatball with access to liquid assets. Look for synergies in more logical pursuits. This isn't one. In my estmation, with money he made, Pappy could afford to underwrite this shindig all by himself, but, give him credit, he didn't put much, if any, of his own funds at risk.

Excellent point and where are the Beer ads that Fritzy was going to be bring to the table. When your second biggest advertiser after 6 months is the local high school, you are doing nothing more than a High School Cable access show.
