Jeffery you're a loving coward if you don't put the Something Awful brand name up through Egeez and also go on a date with Nathen "World's Youngest Garfield Licensee" Mazri.

What do you suppose Nathen tells prospective clients about Egeez? It's tempting to make up an intellectual property just to see what Nathen proposes. It's probably just word salad about connecting to fans, and a bunch of weird videos starring Nathen talking about the character and himself. There's no way he knows anything about licencing and manufacturing

We'll never know because there's no way anybody's ever approached him, and anything he sends out is guaranteed to get flagged as spam / phishing scam by every mail service known to man.

The idea of aggregating IP access and setting up a one-stop-shop isn’t the worst idea. There are some global companies doing it in the patent spaces currently.

i very much enjoy how nathan keeps trying to use his discord as a personal army, even linking them to things and telling them to his bidding, but is always shocked when no one does anything. he refuses to believe that his discord is full of people being entergaged by his antics only.

It's way different with B2C retail stuff, though, right? The audience is huge and the IP does way more work to drive demand. Let's say Nathen is courting a big fish licensee that just paid a couple million bucks to license action figures for the new Marvel... something-or-other. On one hand, they could court Target and Walmart (with their physical and online storefronts) for distribution/placement to move the absolute poo poo out of their products by having eye-level contact with every 8-year-old who wanders through the toy aisle, as well as just setting up a basically free Amazon shop to catch the gift-shopping parents. On the other hand, they could talk to an insane Canadian man with the face of a third-hand Realdoll who talked to someone three levels down from Jim Davis one time a decade ago. I mean, I would love for anyone to choose the comedy option, but I can't see it happening in a mass-market retail space. He's radioactive.

The problem is that anyone big isn’t going to be interested unless Egeez becomes a highly used platform, and in order to do this, he needs to hoover up the B2C market for the small players. But to do the ongoing due diligence on all of those businesses is an absolutely mammoth task, and would take a huge amount of people to do properly. And the moment it’s not done properly, his entire model and fledgling reputation completely collapses.

And, what’s more, if this were a significant problem that needed addressing (or were costing Amazon market share) the big players already have the resources and skills to do the exact same thing more effectively in a heartbeat.

The root beer company started the restaurant, or vice versa. They may be separate entities by now.

Actually the Canadian A&W got spun off by the American version decades ago. We're possibly talking about three different things.

Woah.

Yeah. Basically two dudes started a root beer stand/restaurant. Then they probably sold the formula and/or name for wider bottling and distribution. Then the company got franchised out. It went through several owners separate from the packaged drink with the same name yadda yadda yadda.

In the states they are like combo drive-thrus with Kentucky Fried Chicken, which means you can pair a rootbeer float with a KFC double down.

Well I know their drinks own, and I'll take your word the food does as well, but as the don't have an 80's newspaper cartoon mascot though -I assume?- can they really be called the best
