Yes, I'm aware of facebook advertising. That still doesn't answer the question of how you get people to come to the relevant facebook pages or what to say in the ad to make them become customers. I occasionally read the afrezza facebook page and that seems like a logical place to put a VDEX ad, but I haven't seen one. Indeed, I haven't seen any reference to VDEX in any of the comments. It seems like whatever advertising they're doing must be pretty poor since overall internet awareness of VDEX appears nil. Why would Vdex buy a nationwide ad on the Afrezza Facebook page? The members of that group are all over the country while Vdex is only operating in the Los Angeles area and New Mexico. If you're not in either of those areas it would be a waste of money to reach you. Look, all I know is that "Steve" of VDEX asserted that they are running social media ads. I just want to see one. Failing that, I would like someone who has seen to describe where they saw it, what it looks like, and what it says. A screenshot of one would be particularly nice. |

If I took a screenshot of a billboard how would you know it was from Vdex?
I just posted a screenshot of them at a health fair and you don’t believe it was them. Therefore you don’t believe me, therefore I am not doing any more research for you. Have a great day, I’m taking today off:-)

No I am not...You can not invest in VDEX, ..the only stock I hold is in MNKD AMRN and YGYI. |

I would expect a VDEX ad to include identification of VDEX clinics as being what is promoted -- that is pretty much necessary for an ad, right?. The photograph of the fair said nothing about VDEX and didn't really show anything but a few people standing around somewhere. Was anyone in the photo clearly identifiable as a VDEX representative? |

Something that has become blindingly obvious to me in reading the last weeks worth of posts in this thread this morning: It's not worth anyone's time to give rtmd answers. He's only asking questions to get targets to sling mud at.
I don't say this to attack anyone, even though I guess I am. I do it because I'd rather see meaningful VDEX information. How do I ignore someone?

They are just trying to give info,
Not trying to be known publicly through FB.
Have been trying to keep a lid on it until it’s time to GO!!!
DTC is perfect for that.
Always had to “turn it off” so they could handle the requests.
Just saying they were never wanting with this method of advertising and public awareness was what they were partially trying to avoid.
....partially because they want to be known for being the experts on Afrezza but with limited exposure to competition.
Time to GO...coming soon:-)

I sure hope one day I read this thread and it says Bill from VDex has raised $75M just like Virta Health did. If they can do it for a diet program how hard should it be for a life changing protocol?

I believe Facebook allows you to target ads to people by state/zipcode. So they could be running ads on that Facebook page, but you are not able to see them. |

Just because most of us can't see Vdex ads on Facebook or elsewhere on social media doesn't mean diabetics and their family members in the areas where Vdex has clinics can't see them. And why put Steve Brown's first name in quotes? |

Thanks for playing VDEX, but it looks like MNKD and MC have more cards up their sleeves. Shall we say 3 more months before the new marketing campaign bears fruit?

The cards that I'm referring to is the new marketing campaign. Once again, MC has surprised us with some good news. It seems that the wheels are turning in the background. The 3 months is the time frame that alot of us thought it would take to see an impact on the scripts, when the initial afrezza food ad was ran at the beginning of the year.

From my readings on diabetes forums, many PWDs don't care much about injections (the needles are really thin). |
