The next focusIR Investor Webinar takes places on 14th May with guest speakers from WS Blue Whale Growth Fund, Taseko Mines, Kavango Resources and CQS Natural Resources fund. Please register here.
I personally did the latter St. and after going to the GM they didn't feel me with ANY confidence at all. I asked why are you guys not selling at Harrods the reply from the CFO was they have a high margin. I should've said any margin atm is better than none and brand awareness is key for a start up, but I didn't reply with that. I don't know where these guys are going next my oil and serum are on the last drips but for £79 and £99 respectively they can keep it.
I hope that things turn around but a new CEO before the money runs dry is definitely needed bring the OG Alexis Abraham back at least he showed heart and bought a big chunk. You need a CEO that'll go back to basics and sell wherever with a booth at a store (Harrods would be a dream) like their life depended on it and yes money is needed to drive sales, where that going to come from? Who knows...
Honestly I wish all make a return on this but most times it felt like flogging a dead horse.
Good luck all.
Del Boy
Agreed.
I don't want to be that person who comments on these boards as a non investor but I am lol I did sell up 2 months ago at a big loss and still look in here from time to time (dry as a bone). Yesterday I dropped them (CG) a DM on insta asking if they could give me a discount code as I've bought a few products in that past with 10/20% off and would like to buy more. I like the products think they're great, anyway this was their reply via email.
Hello,
Thank you for your support and we're glad to hear that you love our products! Our Welcome discount is only for new customers but keep an eye out for our newsletters for upcoming events and deals.
If you're interested in our Rejuvenating Face Serum and Nourishing Face Oil, you're in luck as we sell them as a set. Our Rejuvenate & Nourish Set is £130.

Good afternoon all,
I today have decided to cut my losses after holding from IPO and being on the journey from day dot. Im taking this investment as the worst financial decssion of my life lol I will be watching from the side lines and will come back in if I feel I want to lose more money lool no I will keep an eye out here but I think atm cash is king and the this small rise over the last 4 weeks from our ATL has been damage limitation and feel after still being down 14k (150k and 24k shares sold at 14:38). I personally feel there are better plays out there been looking at RR and Easy Jet feel there's more room for growth there but will see anyway I do wish this comes good for all those invested the products are damn good just needs the right management and hopefully they can find it before the money runs out.
Hopefully and probably knowing my luck, come Monday David Beckham will have his face on CG, with an RNS at 7am saying he has increased his position and also Rishi will make all UK CBD companies pay no taxes for the next 10 years LOOL
All the best and speak soon,
Del Boy
Get Alexis back in!!!
It is what it is...
All you can do now is pray, hope and laugh.
What did we really expect?
Who would want to merge with a company that probably sells a couple of products a day (at best).
Made a return of 30k from an initial 10million pound investment.
Anna obviously bounced because she knew we was heading desperately in the direction to merge with Cannary and if the deal did go ahead her job was on the line.
What we need now is to hope for a miracle and a whole new business plan but for starters get a CEO who knows what they're doing ffs.

Two words for everyone: Be Real.
As an investor how can you be positive with holding this share. Im down massively here been in since DAY ONE (primary IPO 5p + sky news hype + DB + Alexis interviews) got sucked in and I say this time and time again this stock is dead food. So why am I still holding... because whats the f point when ur down 95% may as well see what happens. I'll rather let this run to the ground (which it most likely will) and take it as a lesson (which I have already tbh).
So what positives can you take?
None
-No CEO = no directions
-Whoever is left in the CG office is literally emailing the very few customers daily begging them to buy their products with free products and massive % off and still can't sell them.
-There has been no update with what the F is going on ie products, merge, business plan, retail partnerships, CBD edibles. Nothing
- Who even works at CG??
- The ROI with marketing has been absolutely diabolical.
The products are good, ill say that. But they made 30K from sells right lool they need to be making that every 2-3 days not every 12 months!
Wake up folks unless we continueasly bombard management (whoever is even left) Via email, Insta, phone, in person. We probably have another 3 months before we go into addministrations lets be REAL.
I spoke to Mr Useless Neil Thapar on the phone a few weeks back and gave him an ear full. I don't believe anything he says, I just wanted him to hear what I felt not that he gives a sh=t but its his job so if im going to pay their wages then hear me out. Everyone else must do the same.
Please all do your research on the board they're all ghosts Alexia Blake, Melissa Santolini and Amanda Pape where are they now??? They gave us all the talk in 2020, 2021 and even 2022. I followed Alexia and Melissa on insta during the early days of IPO and saw they done f all apart from travel, eat good, go to baseball games and enjoy the finer things in l life. Now they dont have IG hmmm?
Anyway I know I sound like a stalker but I followed the company and staff I had big hopes as they fed us lie after lie I thought they was genuine. They're not and until someone or another company steps in our days are numbered.
This is beyond a joke.
Wake up all.
All the best

Hi all,
Did a few mention last month that they was looking at going to the CG office at the start of Jan?
I'm going to try and head down on Monday but I'm also free any day next week, just to see what the heck is going on. Might have no luck at all but will at least speak to reception and pass a msg lol.
All the best
Del Boy
Absolute sh*t show of a stock and company! 1.5p no update on this merge for over 5 weeks, f all in product sales.
CG you have truly shafted retail investors with loads of hopes and promises.
"I’ve been waiting for 1.5p also. Not giving them a penny more!"
That's funny LOOL
AM01
you must have more shares than Alexis or ur talking waffle. "some serious top ups to do this month and next"
You say u top up every month? why are u wasting ur money on this dead beat stock?
Ive been in since the Primary bid 5p listing and my last top to bring my avg down was over 12 months ago. I have a lot of money in this share and I can hand on heart say what and absolute IDIOT I am. What is your game I don't know, nothing u say is fact, all speculation and 'what ifs'.
What if this deal doesn't go ahead our investment is trash and border line right now might as well be scrapped.
I'm hanging on to mayyyybe recoup some losses.
I do think we have a decent product and I do think this merge will b good for CG. However they are taking a little too long for my liking and if this merge doesn't go through then boy or boy. Game over.
Thanks
Del Boy
I've been a LTH since IPO and added here and there. Once at 18p (smh) this stock has been one heck of a learning curve for me. I still hold and down down and down.
This deal is make or break, the next 6/12 months for CBX is make or break. We can't continue to make our selves feel like if the company just continued as it is, say we don't get a deal. We wouldn't survive full stop. Come on we still have no brand awareness, maybe like 1% in the CBG/CBD, C whatever space u want to talk about. We have nothing just a website that is for us investors to buy the product.
I generally believe of all the sales CBX have made, 75% have come from investors.
I do want to see this company do well, I do think they have a great product (Im in that 75% estimation of mine who has purchased the serum).
I don't think they can achieve what they say they plan on doing alone or with the money they currently have in the bank.
Something needs to change and this deal is a big step in the right direction IMO.
Monday will be 5 weeks since RNS about the takeover, Christmas is around the corner, any new products we want to see them, markets have beeb stable this week, we have Sunak who looks to fix all this mess surrounding our economy (fingers and toes crossed).
CBX team wake the F up.
Thank you & have a good weekend all

There's been no good news for months stop kidding yourselves
We need to start contacting the board like we did earlier on in the year and ask questions!
Hi all,
Don’t shoot the messenger but I’ve heard the new FSA list will be released tomorrow.
If true a lot of dead wood companies will be gone, question is will CG be on the list or not. I don’t know?
Thanks
Del boy
it isn't doing.

Just left my David Lloyd gym and I’ve just seen a carrier deliver a CG box full of sample for members.
Good move I hope they get distributed fairly and keep a close eye on **** takers it should be left by the reception on the desk hopefully .
Hi all,
Tomorrow 27th April we see Anna and Alexia talk again about the benefits of CBD & CBG etc for the 100th time but in the likely event they decide to answer some questions. I would like to start a thread where we could share ideas on some questions we could put forward for them to answer as i'm sure we may not all get the opportunity to do so.
Although I could write a book with all the questions I have, my first question would be:
W-T-F is going on with the our ingestible range who's to blame? How quick can CG remedy the issue with FSA? Will we see them on sale again?
Okay I won't say W-T-F but u get the gist.
Please add you questions
Thanks
Dellboy
I've totally written this off the ONLY thing thats on my mid is why the F haven't they come out and said that Icon is finished? Why leave us PI here with nothing are we that gone that we don't even have anyone is the office lol I think even Brad and Jaya has totally moved on, Js Linked in says OpenToNetwork ie he's looking for a new role.
We're done people and I just wanna say a big F U to all that made Iconic get to this point.
PIs we move on, money comes money goes

Hi all Dell boy here,
Ive decided to stop looking at the SP action 100* a day and looking here too, it'll just drive u loco. Instead I've set a price alert bottom so if it does get to that point then jeez f**k me my broker will just email me and if not then we ain't doing too bad lol I'd recommend this approach.
Youngy84 - 'Find a firm who will buy the company' I do believe this is the option they are looking to exercise and without sounding too doom and gloom its the only option we have without asking for me doe from shareholders and doing another raise/offering. We do tend to talk about the BOD having experience etc but why I believe that we will get a firm to buy is this
1- It won't cost them that much will it? (How would u value a company like CG? MCAP + assets?) its not a lot
2- Yes we do have a unique product with imo a nice neat design, small following thus far and some new products due
3- The BOD (again) all come from and must have links to big companies our new matey Nikhil Vijayan used to work at Procter & Gamble, Anna also used to work for Procter & Gamble + L'Oréal, AVON. Antony Buck CG Skincare Business Adviser sold REN to Unilever.
I do think this is the strategy CG are going with and I hope we are because we will need cash soon.
