Advertising of AFREZZA

[careful2invest]

I was killing time on this rainy day, looking back at some old posts from various longs and going back to 2014, yes, 2014, going over discussions of when MNKD was going to start advertising. It was quite a hot topic just after approval!
Not to mention the pie in the sky hopes that all of us shared. How great it was going to be...
The optimism was flowing!

Some thought advertising would start right after approval, some said that by law, they "had to wait 6 months after FDA approval,
then it would start", some had other ideas.
But the general consensus was that once MNKD started advertising AFREZZA, the stock price would soar!
And advertising would begin very soon, But it never happened! 

My point is how an issue as fundamental as advertising ones new product has been so
elusive when it comes to MNKD and AFREZZA, and the excuses that we have been told as to why.
It just does not make sense!

How many silent periods have we suffered through? While we watch the decline in the pps...
This has been the most grueling investment experience of my life, and I realize that I am not alone with that sentiment!

Finally, 3 years later, it appears that it (advertising) may be happening, hopefully it's not too late!
Still hoping for success!
GLTA LONGS! Have a great weekend!

I would love to know the answer to this question! I'm sure someone has asked Matt... Any answers? And I hope it's one of the questions at the shareholder meeting.

Might happen before the shareholders meeting. I am sure they are very close to getting it launched.

Perhaps even before the conference call May 10. You can bet they want to toss some red meat out to investors.

Advertising is starting?

Captive audience?

Targeted?

Sanofi ran Afrezza ads in several editions of Time, Good Housekeeping, Family Circle, Cooking Light and all the diabetes magazines.
