A new promotional campaign for Auri, Inc. (OTC:AURI) has started yesterday evening. Today’s session will show if these new promotions will manage to make AURI finally attractive for traders by improving the liquidity and the volatility of the stock. 
Yesterday, AURI closed the session at $0.61 with no change from the previous close and with a trading volume of less than 37,000 shares, which barely exceeds half of the average for the past 30 days. So far we have received three new promotional newsletters, alerting that AURI stock has increased four times its value in just three months. Yet, market cap currently tops $54 million, and looks highly optimistic for a company with less than $1 million in assets. That value is also over 170 times the company’s sales.
Thus, even if the share price increases today, it is likely to be just for the day. The new campaign has been paid by a third party and the total compensation is up to $50,000, the amount being much higher than this particular promoter charges for the service.
Latest news from the company came out a few week ago when AURI announced to have appointed a new sales representative for Western United States and to have received allowance from the United States Patent Office for its patent application for the Active Shoe Suspension System. A positive thing from the latest 10-Q report, also recently filed, was the 118% increase in the sales in the quarter ended March 2011 on an annual basis; and that the company has raised almost $400,000 in the initiated in March 2011 private placement of common stock and warrants units.
The 10-Q mentions also that in April AURI has entered into a twelve month consulting agreement with a company named DC Consulting which will provide investor relations and public relation services. AURI’s obligation is to issue to DC Consulting 250,000 common shares per quarter and pay $4,000 per month, the first payments being already made.
