The "Avatar Devils" now join Northwestern on my college registered words. Don't worry, it's entered as DUKE.
"If someone were to text "Duke" vs "Duk" would Go800 pick up on that?"
I chose 'DUK' because I may yet enter DUKE for the University and because of the reference in yesterday's PR to trading symbol key words.
"Ambassadors Go800 Disney"
Somebody already took care of it.
"Can always count on you to be on top of it."
Love this board! Must have entered a half dozen brands/key words from suggestions/requests. On the principle that no one can think of everything, keep 'em coming.
DUK led to PG&E.
"AMBASSADORS, It would be great if someone would consider DUKE ENERGY"
w8ting....You didn't have to wait long.
Brand DUK (800) 544-6900
I used their trading symbol and selected their "billing and payment options #"
As you say, we can add more numbers later as necessary.
Thanks!
"we have about 20 divisions who could use this if we are successful."
You know from my posts and those of other Ambasadors how this works. Give me your divison name and one department phone # and I will register a key word that you can demo for yourself and to others. Nothing that you say to your colleagues will speak louder than a text that rings you back!
"We are going to use the technology with our field sales force.'
Have you decided upon and registered your brand/key word(s)?!
" am looking to enter at .025 - .0275 range, but I do know that TD Ameritrade has required that investors call brokers to place orders for the security. Because of that fact, I personally think that some people will not bother with buying GOIG because it is either too cumbersome to call the broker, or they simply see the broker requirement as a warning."
Really? Why is it anymore difficult today than it was yesterday or a week and a half ago? In any case, I suspect that Fidelity, Schwab and E*trade for starters will be able to sustain some buying.
"I think the host actually did a great job too...."
A decidely good job. His likening of Go800 to the the advent, growth and..... necessity of 800 #'s and domain names is what will capture the imagination of viewers who are looking for a 'hook' on which to base an investment.
The other helpful observations were his mention of the growing prevalence of texting and the response MoneyTV received just from announcing the availibility of service before they even placed the keyword on their web site.
One word that needs to be stripped from Ike's presentation is 'basically' which basically loses meaning with repetition.
You're right and the number is registered already. Look for a demo from Ike!

"You can text to MoneyTV using GO800...if that is what you were asking."
Don't you need a phone # to register in our system?
"So is sell the news gonna hold true tommorow?"
Considering the 'news' was partly yesterday and mostly today the truism was "more honored in the breach than in the observance".
As for tomorrow, I say it's more about expectations than anything else. The sell on good news truism seems to apply more for earnings reports than the kind of info likley to appear in a TV 'promo'. And make no mistake, the 'questions' in tomorrow's broadcast will be as easily smacked out of the studio by Ike as a Chicago 16" softball!
IF he drops some specifics about signed contracts in hand, then we're off and running more than we will be for just a reiteration of what was released today.
I do think we can get a nice run from the reiteration simply because of new investor eye balls and ears reached.
All that said, first do no harm.
I want to see the tanned, rested and ready version of Ike warmed up from swinging 3 softball bats at once over and around his head!
Be nice if he could text to MoneyTV, but I can find no phone number on their site....to 'reserve'!

Contrarian view: Any new poster who reads that, in light of the subsequnt PR and PPS move, can fairly conclude that GOIG responded quickly and responsibly to the legitimate and professionaly communicated concerns of a shareholder and business owner.

Yesterday, at the prompting of a poster, I reserved 'contacts'.
Poster informed me that they successfully texted and ordered lenses that afternoon.
"GOIG is pulling back. What did i tell you.'
Gutsy call! You are haranguing people who are flinching like a punch drunk fighter after repeated 15%-30% sell offs. So holding at + 70% before afternoon trading, and with positive news in hand and a Money TV appearance scheduled, I'm sure you'll understand why your posts do not resonate with most of us.
" think you ambassadors have done enough damage misleading people with those statements, we know that means nothing more than you entered it into the system for marketing and test purposes."
How is it misleading when you know, and as I've stated from the time I first posted as an Ambassador, that reserving key words is NOT the same as signed contracts for them?
Really think that MM's and analysts are not aware of that fact as well?
"GOIG hit the 10 day MA at .0259 and it was like a brick wall. If GOIG doesn't pull back soon, tomorrow will be a big sell off. It's Friday!'
Thanks for sharing your trading 'algorithm' with us. "It's Friday" is probably the most sophisticated component of it!
What if Ike delivers a 'dog and pony show' wirh Vegas like production values, maybe a trained tiger or two to go with the dog and pony?
"Mr. Ike Sutton, the Company's CEO, will appear in a video interview on Money TV's website on Friday, April 23, which will be also televised on cable TV in the USA and abroad beginning Saturday, April 24."
Let's hope that he is tanned, rested and ready. Further, that he is prepared, uses professional appearing graphics or none at all, and that he is concise and accurate.
"remember what ike said, there are 1000-2000 registered keywords in their system, out of those sounds like he mentioned 300 keywords are contracted."
Let's take it to be the higher figure, 1000 from Ike's inital efforts and let's assign 50 current registrations to 45 ambassadors......that would get you to your 2000 + registrations.
Lets say ambassadors close 15% of their registrations. that would mean a minimum of 150 more contracts on or shortly after 6/1.
More advertsiing, promotion and word of mouth could increase what are admittedly conservative projections by me.
Other Ambassadors, feel free to chime in.

"I look forward to your response,
Respectfully,
“Shareholder”
VERY well said, 'oil'. Allow me to add my thanks for both the proactiveness and professionalism of your 'presentation'.
I expect that you will not be satisfied with a "false choice" answer that attempts to finesse your concerns with the disclaimer
that the CEO "needs to build the business without concern for the day to day stock pps movement".
Actually, the resposible CEO either needs to be aware of shareholder concerns/reactions or at least delegate monitoring of those concerns. The choice is not between shameless stock pumping or micro managing pps with puff PR's and what we are currently seeing. There simply need to be more awareness, balance and follow-up. As you said:
"....fiduciary duty to all shareholders is not waived because a company trades on the pink sheets.
"Think of it this way. Two people beside each other. One using Go800 and other 1-800. Neither one of them know the number to the company they are trying to contact. Person 1 text's the company and gets connected while person 2 is looking up the 1-800 number through the internet on his iphone.'
Uh, no. I'm aware of the convenience factor. I'm looking for confirmation of a technical advantage if one exists.
Many companies that I will be talking to will be wondering/asking about our claims to patent-pending technology. I want to know if it is possible to demo one aspect of that technology.
"I deal with about 5 companies on the current list. I plan to start contacting them intentionally using Go800 and letting them know that I am doing it."
Stockpositive,
I am awaiting a reply from GOIG on the question below. Do you have any thoughts on this?
"Our proprietary technology, what claims if any can we make regarding connectivity speeds and routing compared to 800 phone calls?
In other words two people side by side and at the same time, one texts the same 800 phone number, or same toll number, that the other person calls.
Would we see a difference in either the response time or the routing of the call? I need to know if I can challenge prospects to do that very demo, or not."
"blackhawks, in your opinion what Go800 key words are 'fakes'?'
Very few if any and absolutely none of mine. However, you may be working with a looser definition of 'fake' than I am.
I consider a functioning but non contracted brand/keyword to be 'genuine'.
ionicbulb46800
I did register it. Give it a try!
"blackhawks, that key words - or most of them - in Go800's system
haven't had subscriber monthly payments made on them doesn't mean they're fakes."
Uh, what part of my post did you misunderstand? I believe I'm a "choir member" in this exchange!
"big comanies will give much credit/atention to an email or phone call from an unkown company offering a "new" service."
Agreed. That is why demonstrating functionality with working key words is essential. Look at the confusion and misunderstanding about the service expressed on this board by people who've had access to DD about GOIG and it's service.
"Bottom line is: How do we know if those companies are even aware of GOIG service?. Now I know why we don't see any kind of ADV out there."
They know about it when I speak with them or when they recieve an email describing the service. I can't predict how soon or if they they will advertise their reserved brand or key words.
"so all the key words are fake or most of them because nobody really sign up yet...."
Since the words are functioning texts with functioning phone numbers, they are not 'fake'. The first objective of the test period is to establish and demo functionality. Then come the business arguments for signing a contract.
As with any B2B sales some companies will be persuaded, or persuade themselves, that this is a viable customer relationship management tool as well as as an effective marketing piece within their overall marketing plan.
"We are all screw then....those 2000+ means nothig if this is true.. LOL!!!"
1.) I can't attest to how the initial 1000 companies were 'reserved' by GOIG, whether or not Ike or others
had conversations with the companies, whether or not any contracts were signed.
2.) We are restricted to no more than 100 entries in a 30 day period. I have 65 in 10 days. I choose to start working those while being alert to new 'opportunities' for brands and key words.
3.) No one knows how many will sign or how soon any will sign.
4.) We MAY be screwed for a host of reasons. But I don't think they can be chiefly found in what I've just itemized.
"Do you need any kind of contract or confirmation from the Company prior to enter the keyword in the Database....?"
One does NOT need either a contract or company confirmation prior to data entry.
"My understanding is that companies who are requesting keywords will sign a contract prior to their keyword activation, BEFORE they start testing or using. Then when June 1 comes, their service will be continued unless they choose to "opt out".
Where did you come by that 'understanding'?
As near as I can tell as soon as we enter the keywords with working phone numbers, on the data entry page, the service is 'active'. The testing that people have done with companies on my list confirms that a signed contract is unnecessary for the service to function.
Hmmm where did I last see so many expressions of resignation and half-hearted "good lucks" followed by carnage? Oh yeah, the Marines run across the airfield on "The Pacific, 'Part Six': Peleliu gets worse". See you on the other side!
"Yeah, ZVTK is getting hot, did they get signed up on GO800."
