I listened to the CC again. Chuck states 11 million in NHIII sales, NHI 5 million and Supervision 8 Million. Looks as if he will get his stock options this year
How do you spin the recent filing and no news from Vegas
Kind of funny that there is no more support for this stock. No way to spin this last filing. Can't wait for a spike in price so I can get the hell out. Might be waiting for a long time.
I do own a bulb and it does work
Have sent 2 e-mail to IR. The responses were very short without much information.
My Questions were:
When will the Audits be completed. In the last CC, it was mentioned that they would be complete by the end of summer
Is the down turn in the ecomony impacting sales
Seems pretty basis and easy answers, but IR is just brushing me off
I don't care what CVS does. It just shows how unstable things are with ZVTK. My CVS must have been expecting a shipment and it never came.
My CVS has a shelf that saya ionic bulb but there are no bulbs and they have never been stocked
yep
Looks like outcast trader is no longer covering ZVTK. The blog no longer exists
And my point was don't make a big deal about, they already said they would be late.
Yes flaflyersfan, I should have been clear with my unclear post. My point was just to point out that we knew the filing would be late. Sorry for the poor communication
There hasn't been a response to the questions I posted on the blog the other day. So much for the PR blog
Original questions:
Please start by telling Adam that he is the best CEO I have ever seen and that I am sorry for hurting his self esteem. Some very basic questions:
1) were there any sales from Europe. If so how much
2) Were ther any sales from Vegas. If so how much.
3) Why are we always late with earnings and when can we expect them to be released?
4) When will we see a PR for the test product at CVS
5) Can we have an update on the progress of sales at Walgreens. The product no longer exists at my Walgreens. Is it being pulled from Walgreens
After that last post on the blog, I do have to say I am very sorry for investing in this company (and I have been a long time supported. Over a year). We have to deal with the CEO with kid gloves. You have got to be kidding me. My recent, simple questions for Adam:

SOunds like we have a little baby for a CEO
You guys have been great with answering questions!
Thank you!
The number I had, was not answered. But that was about 2 months ago.
What did he have to say?
I thought Monday was going to be a can't wait to see day
I posted another question. I asked if Adam had any respect for his investors. I stated that his silence speaks volumes as to his respect for us.
I will report back any answer(s)
Did not check recently. I kind gave up. Thanks for the follow-up. Wish Adam would talk more.
They never posted my questions and I have not received a response to my questions. Guess that service doesn't work for ZVTK either
Thanks for the reply. It just seems to good to be true. I have a small holding, but am not a true believer yet; only because it seems to good to be true
If things look so good, why are we at .30 Shouldn't we be higher if there was a chance at recovering $5.00 a share or more?
New site selling the product (as far as I am aware)

I submitted a question to the blog and nothing yet. No response
I posted to the blog. I will let you guys know if I get a response
Vegas ERA Show. Like Shooting Fish in a Barrel?
I had the chance to speak to ZVTK CEO Adam Engel this afternoon from the ERA convention in Las Vegas, where the company has publicly stated its intent to generate 500,000 unit orders and conduct a grueling schedule of sales meetings. Without divulging any non-public info, folks, things appear to be progressing nicely. From what he tells me, ZVTK is making good on their promise to conduct as many meetings as possible, many of them with massive international potential.
Mr. Engel has been keeping me in the loop in regards to what has been transpiring at the show and quite frankly, I've been impressed. All in all, I'd expect to hear something out of him soon in regards to how well things went in Vegas for ZVTK.
Although Vegas is surely "sin city" and a place to have a great time, the ERA convention is also one of the best places for a company like ZVTK to meet, greet, and present its product to the more than 3,000 electronic retailing executives from around the world in attendance.
Vegas ERA Show

Today's News: Click 2 Buy Coming Soon!
According to today's press release, ZVTK has procured a merchant account which will allow the company to accept and process credit card transactions through its corporate website, www.zevo-tek.com. As I've stated in recent editions, adding click-to-buy functionality to the site is absolutely essential in order for ZVTK to grow efficiently going forward.
In all honesty, this should have been done long ago and most likely would have if cash flow wasn't an issue. It's an absolute no-brainer. Think about it, sales at big name retailers such as CVS and Walgreens are great. So are relationships with online retailers like the Amazon.coms of the world as well as International distributors. However, you have to pay to play in these types of relationships.
Simply put, partners such as those mentioned above don't sell product for companies like ZVTK out of the kindness of their hearts. They demand a piece of the pie (sale), which takes away from ZVTK's margin. Surely, these relationships work wonders for the company's revenues and ability to gain global brand recognition, but direct-to-consumer sales are what feeds the bottom line.
According to the release today, management is completely aware of this and is taking the steps necessary to begin selling its landmark product via zevo-tek.com, the merchant account being step #1. Next comes the establishment of a fulfillment center and inbound call center operations and then, as logic would dictate, the hiring of a marketing firm to get the ZVTK infomercial on the air.
Where's the Infomercial?
The company announced back in July that the advertising spot was just about ready for production and I believe that it is now. Although sales have been surprisingly decent thus far, I can't help but think the numbers at Walgreens and the test at CVS could have been better if the IONIC BULB had a little "push" from a television advertising spot that sent consumers into the stores in search of the product. Placement with these retailers is impressive for such a new product and company, but when was the last time you went to either establishment in search of a light bulb. Point taken?
Moreover, now that management is taking the steps necessary to take orders through its site and also working hard at the ERA show to foster new sales opportunities, I'm guessing that the spot will be hitting the air sometime in the relatively near future. I wouldn't think that e-tailers from Europe, Asia, or wherever else would be too keen on purchasing a product with no push behind it. That's just my opinion.
Infomercials Big Time for Boomers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the stock price moving in an upward direction and management solidifying future sales and improving the bottom line, ZVTK is showing a great deal of promise for the Fall season.
We'll be keeping close watch on the movement of the stock over the next few days and whether or not the stock can manage to break through $0.12. A clean break through the 12 cent range should open the door to 15 cents and potentially $0.25. We'll also be watching to see if the 500K unit sales objective is achieved. That's all for now on ZVTK. Check the OutcastTrader Blog for updated coverage on the company.

I own 7000 shares. I feel my investment is very safe and ready to grow.
Glad you will be on the good side
The lack of news is killing us
I spoke with IR and there is no word when the audit will be completed
Adam went to Europe and stated there would be a press release after the show and there was never a release. He lacks credit with his statements. He does not follow through
I have been a holder ever since they announced the product being sold at Walgreens (over a year). The bulb is no longer available at my local Walgreens and the sales tag is at CVS, but there are no bulbs on the shelf. It has been 3 weeks since the tag was there, bu no bulb
What are you talking about?????????
we are on the short list as of yesterday

my experience also
Adam had the flu. Since he is the only employee, nothing got done. He is better now. We should see some PR this week
