Thanks chaps, will take a closer look.

Pet Lover.

I do, mainly because I wont buy something unless I understand it! Obviously the contract wins is validation, but if I believe that is a drop in the ocean of its potential, then it makes a purchase all the more sensible.

Big sofa technology can fully indexed any video which means big brands can now do in depth search within any recorded videos. Enter a search term, and Big Sofa technology brings up all videos where it has been used.This means consumers of big brands can now directly upload videos in regards to how they feel about new products and Big sofa technology will fully indexed those videos for the big brands to analyse This means big brands will move away from focus groups and market surveys

You don't need to research the software product.

REASON


The 3 massive contracts won in the last 8 weeks show the the industry has done it for you..

This video will make it clearer for you. The video/film is consumers talking into camera and its that video that is analysed/transcribed by the Big Sofa platform.

So, for example, you would type in, say, orange whip, and the blues brothers film would be highlighted, and any other film or programme in which it was mentioned?

Looks interesting, but I dont understand this:

the Client is able to interpret and analyse real behaviour to a depth not previously possible in the consumer insight industry.

What does that actually mean?!

Growing at about ten times the rate of the average growth share, and that was in 2016, without the benefit of the two deals in April, and today's announcement.

[pet lover] 12/6/2017 11:52

Another massive deal announced today.

[hamidahamida] 12/6/2017 11:09

However the most important reason BST could 25 Bag is extremely easy to understand.

The company has two main avenues to market and several smaller ones .

The first, direct selling to the worlds multi nationals who have, and are , building up video libraries, that until recently, could not be economically catalogued and used in any meaningful way. Billion pound companies have contracted with BST : Unilever Worldwide is one example.

The second avenue to market is through the massive market research giants, who in turn,sell (and analyse) the software on behalf of their own customer base .IPSOS is just one example:

Millions of surveys are performed each year around the world. Video is on the verge of sweeping away the clipboard and telephone. It catches four or five times more information than older methods, that can now, for the first time, with the help of BST, be deciphered economically.

My own interpretation of prospects :

A large, sticky, regular, growing income, from the multi nationals. Each new agreement will, I believe add very substantial long term income at high margin.

This chunk of revenues could cover overheads going forward in my opinion.

BST has also cleverly contracted with IPSOS:, SSI :,and other market research agencies , it is these revenues that I believe will grow, and keep growing, from virtually nothing to millions, and then towards tens of millions. This can be achieved in an incredibly short time frame, in stock market terms, of less than 36 months if all goes well.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For any company to see its stock rise by 2, 5, 10, or 25 times it requires

A low valuation as a starting point.

Rapid recurring income growth.

Outstanding profit growth

High returns on capital

A high PE ratio

A market niche

A growing un tapped market

The stock market adores companies that can consistently grow income and profits at 20% a year.

BST has a business model that is currently producing 240% revenue growth, or even more.

In 2015 BST publicly stated its intention to become a one hundred million pound company.


I personally believe they could do far better than that by simply grabbing a large slice of this emerging market, in short order.

Big Sofa has a big name client base Unilever, P&G, British Airways, Ipsos, et, etc Truly limited free float sub 5% of the shares in issue Results should be out this month along with latest juicy trading update

[hamidahamida] 12/6/2017 10:18

Here we go needed a proper header

[gheebee] 12/6/2017 09:32

I take it back, I am an idiot,it isn't Unilever. It's Proctor and Gamble as pointed to on the Big Sofa website for over a year, as named in the Admission Doc and who also have a relationship with IPSOS. Emily Grogan of Big Sofa and P&G are both based in Cincinnati and she left IPSOS at the end of last year. I wonder how IPSOS feel about being cut out?

[hamidahamida] 12/6/2017 09:27

Big Sofa has a big name client base Unilever, P&G, British Airways, Ipsos, et, etc Its annual cost base is c £5.5 million and will not increase as business scales up so there is very high margin operational gearing Truly limited free float sub 5% of the shares in issue will mean the shares will move fast on any news. Results should be out this month along with latest juicy trading update

[hamidahamida] 12/6/2017 08:23

Ignore this poster not making sense

[bandflex] 12/6/2017 08:13

Agreements aren't contracts, that's why the word contract doesn't appear in the RNS.

I am going to rename you Paranoid lover
