Thank you for you extremely long and snarky reply. Allow me to retort.
A. Clearly when a person you don't know says "trust me", it is commonly recognized as a phrase and not to me taken literally. Get with the program on that one. I mean... DUH.
B. "I would guess that original motion is why you decided to invest in the stock initially, no?" - No. I never invested in this company outside the time that I worked for it. I would never invest in IZEA, until their management got their act together. I worked for daily before a layoff back in 2012. Don't worry, my opinions are NOT fueled by any emotion, only what I have seen first hand having been an employee.
C. Not sure why you are confused as to my question of, "What companies has Ted every flipped into a "profit?". Seems like a pretty straight forward question.
D. Comparing IZEA to APPLE is extremely over the top in my opinion. IZEA has a LOT of potential, don't get me wrong. But they've had potential since they started. They can't get out of their own way. The management is not MANAGEMENT MATERIAL..... They are college buds who never cut the ties... and incidentally, never stopped the party.
I get the whole "Let's run our office like a Scrappy START-UP forever" mentality... (which was Ted's words, word for word), but when that careless party mentality begins to effect the way an operation is ran, that is when you have to rethink.
E. "So tell me, what do you know about IZEA? How is Ted Murphy and this stock guaranteed 100% to fail?" Um, I never said they will 100% fail. i never said they will fail at all. NO company is 100% guaranteed to fail. So, I'm not sure where that came from. And what I know about IZEA comes from my actual experience IN THE COMPANY being a PART OF the company for about 2 years... watching the sales team on the phones trying to make sales calls while the CEO is literally CHEERING at the top of his lungs like a child, while wearing a silly viking hat, because someone caught the Frisbee he threw across the room. The place was a ZOO... and grown-up's playground. We would have clients asking to cancel services because the team didn't know what the hell they were doing.
The entire office was drunk all day because TED CEO put a Keggorator IN THE OFFICE. Come on. You CAN NOT run a business that way and expect to be able to DO GOOD BY INVESTORS of the company.
Don't get me wrong, it was ONE HELL OF A GOOD TIME though. Every day was a party, literally. Hence the reason the company has yet to live up to it's TRUE potential.
Would I invest in IZEA? Back then, Hell no. Right now, No way. In the future, only if they got their act together. My investment in them was my time, which is more valuable to me than money... in THAT aspect, it was a very bad investment move. But hey, obviously this is all just my opinion.
Here is a video of how they started ;) just to lighten the topic a bit.
