FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Greenville, SC - July 20, 2010 The investment banking team at Watermark Advisors (Member FINRA/SIPC) is celebrating entering its ninth year of business this month with a special 1-hour Executive Briefing webinar. On Thursday July 29 at 11am EST, Hagen Rogers will be sharing three stories that are timeless, inspirational and relevant for CEOs and owners today. We have recently shared these true stories with companies of all sizes and many have commented that the takeaways forced them to ponder their own operations and even possibly reconsider some of their actions. While all companies aspire to become leaders in their expertise, subtle mistakes can result in a downward spiral on a regretful path to becoming an outlier. Further,

•Our research takes us back 15 years ago, and at that point, the public companies we study are similar in terms of revenues and other factors.
•Over time however, there are clear leaders and outliers, or market underperformers.
•We focus on one leader and two outliers that severely underperformed in their market space.
•This report uncovers what we believe are transforming conclusions for CEOs.
•So much attention by management teams is on today and the very recent past.
•Wisdom is gained however, by studying history and trends over time, and by studying leaders and those that failed versus their competition.
•In this presentation, we have researched approximately 20 small publicly traded retail companies within home furnishings, restaurants, and discount stores.
•We focus on one leader who grew from $1Bn to $7Bn in sales with no debt. We tell the story of how this company made a few fundamental decisions early on that catapulted them to superior performance by all criteria!
•Our outliers' failures are in issues of competitiveness, branding, and disregarding a fundamental theory in strategy.
