Focus on my 2010 Posts as Shareholder Wrong

Focus on these 2010 Posts I made as a shareholder before becoming an Officer is exactly why I became an affiliate because I was unhappy and wanted to change things at HFBG.

I made these posts prior to March 2011 as a shareholder not an Officer of the company.

This was made very clear in this portion of 3/22/11 Press Release

Substance of Press Release re my appointment

"Brad Godfrey, Entrepreneur and Major Hall of Fame Beverages shareholder became very unhappy with previous management decisions, made a Major Investment, and was appointed the Chief Business Development Officer. Thomas Love is no longer working with Hall of Fame Beverages. Brad Godfrey states, "A series of bad management decisions led to our stock's poor performance, we expect a great turn around in valuation for all shareholders with the new management direction and the vision of 'Grandmama' Larry Johnson very active in our game plan ahead." He further added, "Larry Johnson and our alter ego 'Grandmama' branding is opening many doors for us which we are planning and developing products to capitalize on."


Simply put I was told same things many other shareholders were by representatives on behalf of Biagio Cru that deals were done. Stock House Group quoted Biagio Cru Executive Lou Restivo on a whole list of distribution lined up than Lou Restivo. Lou Restivo managed Steve Hendrick's and negotiated his appointment as our CEO. Steve Hendrick's shared with many shareholders Canada Dry & Foodtown deals were done.
Turned out that Steve Hendrick's could NOT fully close them deals although Lou Restivo "did have his own Transport Logistics and Access to our Tea all agreed to they just did not perform."

"We had to negotiate out of exclusive distribution agreement with Biagio Cru because they did not perform."

Prior to that I had become very upset with our former IR Stock House Group as you can see in this post;

As a shareholder I became as upset as any other shareholder by a whole series of poor management decisions. Now I am doing something about it.

Why are Press Releases from 2010 Still HEADLINE STICKIED as "LIST OF HFBG LIST OF LIES" that are outdated based on current changes in Press Releases since? Why the ongoing focus on past and not present?

ALL THOSE 2010 PRESS RELEASES HEADLINED ARE THE PAST AND A LOT HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED AND CHANGED SINCE THAN!

MODS, HEADLINE STICKY THIS "HFBG LIST OF CHANGES SINCE 3/22/11 PR"

We have had 2 Press Releases announcing Management changes and new Direction since than.

All the Accomplishments in PR's below 3/22/11 & 3/31/11 are all confirmed and not like PRE 3/22/11 PR's under different management.

On 3/22/11 PR we announced New Management and change in Direction. In this Press Release we announced the following "Real Changes."

1. "Completed negotiations and received our vendors number to distribute our "Grandmama's Sweet Southern Tea" through U.S. Foodservice the 2nd largest Foodservice Distributor in the United States. U.S. Foodservice is one of the world's leading foodservice distributors globally. Its mammoth network throughout the U.S. alone has 76 Distribution location points to 48 States. U.S. Foodservice's expertise in Restaurants, Lodging, Hospitality, Schools, Universities, Military, Healthcare & Direct Store Distribution showcasing New Trends and Premiere Brands like our "Grandmama's Sweet Southern Tea" is a perfect match.

2. "A series of bad management decisions led to our stock's poor performance, we expect a great turn around in valuation for all shareholders with the new management direction and the vision of 'Grandmama' Larry Johnson very active in our game plan ahead." He further added, "Larry Johnson and our alter ego 'Grandmama' branding is opening many doors for us which we are planning and developing products to capitalize on."
On 3/31/31 Press Release we announced the "further real changes."

3. 2 new Products "2 1/2 Gallon Bag-In-Box "Grandmama's Sweet Southern Tea" for commercial applications in RESTAURANTS, LODGING & HOSPITALITY, EDUCATION, GOVERNMENT & MILITARY & HEALTH CARE. The BIB's will be produced in Regular and Sugar Free and will be a perfect addition for our distributor: US Foodservice's Catalog and other distributors. "Grandmama's Sweet Southern Tea" will be on the menu! Bag in a Box packaging is liked by producers because it is inexpensive and more profitable."

4. "First Purchase Order from US Foodservice."

5. In coming weeks, "Grandmama's Sweet Southern Tea" is scheduled for distribution in New York's metropolitan area.

6. Today I announced that Annual Tax Report has been Updated, Filed, Paid and we are now in Good Standing. See link

Now all these accomplishments are very real. I was unhappy as anybody about the past but "we have turned the corner and our headed in a whole new direction."
Stay Tuned for many new very real changes coming.
Notice last 2 Press Releases "were about real distribution accomplishments not ones hoped for."

No matter how much some want to highlight the past and make lists of past failures it has nothing to do with our future. I look at past as a challenge to do more in future.
Our new business plan does not include waiting for anybody to believe change has been made. We already have moved onto new business and our New Business Relationships are not concerned with our past even if many would like them to be.

We have new Management & new Direction.

More changes including continued Press Releases of real accomplishments achieved not like ones prior to 3/22/11. Eventually it begs question why the continued focus on 2010 and prior to all the changes announced 3/22/11 and real accomplishments?
