Shop for high visibility indicators of profit growth, like an MLB tieup, even without longterm commitment or revenue , because it's the POTENTIAL that impresses ratings firms.
Also compel talent to show up for chasing down sponsorships, even if hopeless, because the chase itself, while bullshit, is visible for rating Cover stock.
If you're a chuuba who wants to game, chat, dance, sing or just zatsu --that wasn't wjhere the money was even before the IPO. It was in merch, and merch is old news profit. Profit GROWTH in terms of new revenue streams is what is needed. Timezone differences between girls and potential sponsors means zombiestate and less time to stream for fans, and a job description ever farther from what they signed up for.
It's not that Cover is evil.
It's that they forgot their foundations.
