That's why fly by night business close no long term capital. this was a business that had to make money immediately and it didn't.. bad business plans always start with a lack of capital.

Not many businesses turn a profit in the first year or two of starting. Not sure why they've given up on the concept so soon, as it looked somewhat promising. If they planned on doing a one year stint and then dropping it because it wasn't turning great numbers right away, they're just sloppy investors.

How can you expect viewership to grow that much after one year? Has anyone here researched on how snooker got big? It took years, but now look at where it is.

Bonus Ball has been with us for about 15 years, although the TV exposure has only been recent.

Did you try to help/invest?

You honestly think it should have hung in there burning 50K plus a week with 79 paid subscriptions and peaking?.

Only a matter of a few more decades before they broke even? To me they were dumb just to come back and finish the season-Nearly as dumb as they were to START knowing NOTHING about the economics of pool.

answer to question #1: God no!!!! Saw this bomb coming a mile away!

What I'm saying is had they done their homework, they would have known they needed more capital at the start to ride through the first few years. Also, having done said homework, they'd have known NOT to piss off every other TD/promoter in the business.

No market research + little capital = EPIC FAIL!!!!
