In an age where there are so many negative people on message boards, I decided to do a different sort of interview with Brian Weber, CEO of Bebida Beverage Company (BeBevCo) (OTC Markets: BBDA). I asked him about his experience and what qualifies him to be a micro cap CEO. His response was interesting… I also asked him what makes BeBevCo a real company and not just a filing cabinet (his words). See video below:

In a micro cap world dominated by shell companies, there is one company with a real product that could cause the stock to see a dramatic move up in the coming days or weeks. I have been hearing some good things about this Company and have heard through the grapevine that exposure of the Companies products as well as the Company’s performance will end up positively affecting the stock.

When asked in a recent interview what is working so well with Landis Lifestyle Salons, Richard Surber, CEO of Nexia Holdings and Green Endeavors (OTCQB: GRNE), a majority owned subsidiary company of Nexia Holdings, “Everything is working well at Landis…”
Over the last two months Landis Lifestyle Salons has reported income of $210,190 in February 2011, compared to total revenues of $160,343 for February 2010 which represented a $49,847 (31% gain). For the month of March 2011, Landis did even better; combined total revenues for both locations were $240,960 in March 2011, compared to total revenues of $175,528 for the comparable month in 2010. The $65,432 increase represents 37% growth over salon revenues for March of 2010. These revenue numbers reflect the continuing success of the new salon in the Marmalade area of Salt Lake City since its opening in October of 2010 and the ongoing results from our flagship salon in Liberty Heights.

Other items that Mr. Surber cited for the unusual success of Landis included the excellent locations of the Landis Salons, Employee
training and retention programs, average price of the ticket that each guest is spending is in the $65 range.

Nexia’s goal is to open a total of 5-6 salons within a 50 mile radius of Salt Lake City. Acquisition of other successful salons is in the works as well. Marketing, especially social media marketing is being used to increase business and awareness for Landis. Developing a franchising program for Landis is being contemplated by Nexia and Landis management for the future as a way to grow the brand nationwide.

In a letter to shareholders on 4 April of this year, Mr. Surber stated that a survey is complete for what will likely be a third location for Landis in Draper UT. The new location will be 2,500 square feet and have 12-14 cutting stations.

The intermediate plan is to dominate the Utah hair salon markets with salons that have the capacity to generate over $1M in annual revenues. Nexia’s objective is to build their brand on a national scale through new talent that will be emerging from the newly opened Aveda™ Institutes in Utah as well as their existing staff of top notch stylists and managers. Over the long term the intent is to use our local success and national recognition as the catalyst to then acquire only the best operating salons in the country.

My belief is that GRNE will be able to capitalize on what is a multibillion dollar industry that is relatively fragmented in the coming months and years. GRNE could use its status as a publicly traded company to acquire additional salon locations, as well as attract top tier talent. Building a business that has superior guest services, a superior product (Aveda™), earth conscious, makes education a hallmark of its business strategy, and creates a great work atmosphere are the pillars of our continued success.
