NOT holding steady. 3 months ago $0.04.
July 31st close was 4 cents. Think about that. The equity cut in half. And that is not counting the DILUTION that is inevitable when those new 75 million just printed shares get traded out for a much need infusion of operating funds. So the pps is really worth a penny. What whale is coming along to save this company...NONE!!!
So in my expert opinion this sham scam stock is heading for another Steven Zale bankruptcy.
The whales may stop, look, then float away.
There is no substance here. The whales are taking their green and going elsewhere.
A brilliant suggestion, call Zalemark AND also Crayola.
Let's stop all this back and forth craziness.
Crayola: 800-272-9652. Ask for the licensing department.
Zalemark: 213-351-9771
Ask for Ernest Martel or preferably Steven Zale and ask hard questions.
Have any major retailers placed any substantial orders for merchandise to be shipped this year?
Please name those retailers.
What is happening with the JTV lawsuit?
Why did they cease operations in California (as revealed by the California Secretary of State's office).
Ask about audited financial statements.
Don't even ask about uplisting as that won't happen.
Ask Steven Zale to explain the Los Angeles Times articles regarding his past criminal activities.
The bigger concern is Zalemark has no sales.
Sorry, but the Crayola launch is NOT happening. Re-read my post. She stated she had no idea of when the merchandise would be in stores and she had no idea of what stores. She said nothing has been "settled". That is NOT confirmation that it will ever happen. She said to contact Zslemark for the store and release information. Nothing in these sentences or her words state the launch is eminent. It won't happen this year and all the wishful thinking won't change that.
Call Crayola again. Ask for the licensing department.
Adrianne was a phone person. But she conveyed my questions to the woman in licensing. Call again and be more forth coming. Ask the licensing woman if she knows anything about which stores the product is going into and also ask if she knows if there is a timeframe that she is aware of. She will tell you; that information hasn't been settled yet and to contact Zalemark. I did call Zalemark and an answering machine with a male voice stating the office hours are from 10:00am to 6:00pm. And please call back during those hours.
Does ZMRK have an annual stockholders meeting?
I called Crayola just now. A revealing conversation.
I talked to a women named Adrienne. I asked if there was a Crayola jewelry collection coming to stores this fall. She stated she didn't hear of anything. I mentioned Zalemark and the licensing agreement and she put me on hold and talked to someone in their Licensing Deptartment. Yes, Zalemark has "partnered" with Crayola, but the licensing department said there was no store finalization yet. She had no idea when the jewelry would be in stores. She said I should check with Zalemark. I asked her for her definition of the term "partnered with" and she said they don't have an ownership in Zalemark and that is just their way of saying they have given Zalemark a license to manufacture and sell product utilizing the Crayola brand.
Please call and verify for yourselves.
The following is from the Crayola website:
"Check out the FAQ section of the website for immediate answers to your questions. If you can't find what you are looking for there, we can help! Call us at 800-272-9652 weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM Eastern Time."
The above is real DD. Not wishful thinking. So let's all call ZMRK and ask the same questions. Maybe one of us will get through or at least get a call back.
Ask Zalemark, not a phone clerk at Crayola.
I keep saying if you want answers try calling IR at ZMRK. You call their number and someone answers "Executive Office". You leave a message telling them what you want and nobody calls you back.
Maybe you will have better luck as I think it was you who stated you talked to Zale at one time.
But I will call Crayola today and ask. But you try to reach Zalemark as they never called me back.
It's all wishful thinking by desperate, frantic longs.
First, the Crayola launch and roll out was to happen in the third quarter. That didn't happen, so the loyal faithful followers revised the date to include October. Now they are saying November. But we see the wishful thinking all posted here and not one word from ZMRK regarding when product will be on the retailers shelves or in their showcases. So again and again and again I see the wishful thinking posts regarding the "launch/roll out" by uninformed investors trying to hype the stock.
Zalemark is led by the convicted felon Steven Zale who has been arrested for dealing cocaine and ALSO for embezzlement in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Why do investors choose to believe him is ridiculous. He has touted audited financial statements for years. The same with the uplist. Nothing happens...EVER.
Read the financial statements...continually losing millions. The pps continually falling from $1.50 to almost worthless. Million dollar investors technically "robbed" of their investment because they relied on Steven Zale...sorry Warren, as you were the last big whale Steven caught and we all know how upset you are.
So now we hear November...and then it will be December...and after that it will be first quarter 2016.
If it was going to happen it would have happened by now...you know it, I know it, but most importantly Zalemark knows it.
No Crayola expansion and no Crayola roll out!!!
If it was going to happen it would have. It doesn't take a year to get merchandise into a store.
Zalemark doesn't have the funding or the business savvy to pull this off.
gofasterr; you don't know retail. I do. The major retailers mark their selling prices on a "high-low" basis. This is so they can discount the high retail price as the consumer is conditioned to buy on sale, which is called the "out the door" price. Legally a new style has to be in the stores and offered for sale at the high retail for a 30 day period before they can discount their prices. The discounts really start on Black Friday for this holiday season so the merchandise has to be in the stores 30 days before. That has now come and gone. And the real truth is that no major retailer would put in a new product from an untested vendor without doing a test first. They would do a sampling across their base of stores in somewhere between 10 to 20% of their total stores. This didn't happen. So you can say what you want but I know it won't happen for Christmas. Zalemark tried but just couldn't pull it off. You can call ZMRK investor relations to verify.
BTW: if the merchandise was already in the stores they would have up to mid November to get the re-order into the distribution center. This is new merchandise and Zalemark had to have the new styles in place already.
DJPB; we would be more excited if the Crayola jewelry made it into the stores last month. All Christmas orders from the major retailers have been placed already. Unfortunately Zalemark's Crayola collection didn't make it. I wonder what excuse is coming.
Go $ZMRK$
Long live the King...Steven Zale!!!
pand2015, the "fascinating" products aren't in any stores.
You can't make money on what you don't have for sale. But you can make money if you are selling shares and not jewelry.
Zalemark is really on the track of DESTRUCTION not tremendous growth. They don't have the infrastructure or the leadership to go anywhere. That is why the convicted FELON Steven Zale has been distancing himself from the company. He will still call the shots but through some veiled appearance.
Read their past financial statements. This company is losing millions and there is no solid footing to turn it around. If you have any evidence of positive growth then post it for all to see. Otherwise it's just more wishful thinking.
Hey straightarrow, Steven Zale took Zalemark Inc BANKRUPT. Your visionary genius is a master of losing money. And Hearst Corporation was listed as being owed big bucks. Look them up and you will see that they are a huge Forbes 500 company. You seem like you tried to do your own due diligence but you missed a few things.
Did you see the Los Angeles Times article where they mentioned Steven Zale being a CONVICTED FELON.
Did you see where Steven Zale was arrested for dealing COCAINE out of his jewelry store.
Did you read where Steven Zale and his wife were arrested for EMBEZZLING hundred of thousands of dollars from the company his wife worked for.
Did you see that Zalemark has ceased to do business in California.
Did you see that the office address is a mailbox in a nice looking building. It's called a virtual office that you can rent for under $100 a month.
Did you read in your in depth due diligence study about the the $4,000,000 lawsuit against Steven Zsle and Zalemark.
Did you read all of the PR that has been released by Zalemark? Have you noticed that with all those "good news" releases that no revenue has been reported.
Did you know that they were supposed to have the Crayola merchandise in stores by the 3rd Quarter this year.
Did you know they can't list one store that has any Zalemsrk brands for sale.
If Zalemark screwed Hearst Corporation when they filed bankruptcy then surely Crayola and M&M's can follow in those footsteps.
Trick or Treat! ZMRK tricked you. Unhappy Halloween!!!
Zalemark was supposed to make some incredible announcements this month but again they disappointed their loyal investors. Who are they selling the Crayola line of jewelry to? When will they show real transparency to their loyal stockholders? When will they come clean in respect to the lawsuit that needs to be settled in early December? Why did they cease doing business in California? Why did they seek out a toxic lender? So many big announcements were to happen in October. Crayola had to expect sales and licensing payments on those sales. They never materialized. Instead of candy this year we all got tricked (again) by the convicted felon Steven Zale who was also arrested for dealing huge amounts of COCAINE and he and his wife were arrested for EMBEZZLEMENT in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. I just don't have confidence in his leadership abilities.
Convicted felon Zale was arrested for dealing cocaine. ZMRK is led by a very shady person. Steven Zale (as reported by the Los Angeles Times) not only is a convicted felon but was also arrested years back for drug dealing and also was arrested, along with his wife, for embezzling hundreds of thousands of dollars from the company his wife worked for. Steven Zale will lie cheat and steal to save his company.
Nobody is paying attention to the wishful thinkers. Just a few more days before the month is over and I won't to read about the absurdity of Zalemark doing anything beyond putting out press releases that have never come to fruition. I hope they walk away knowing they tried to intice investors to think that this stock was a viable company...but they failed to do that. Hey, it's not your fault. Who knew this company was being led by a convicted felon. And that Steven Zale was also arrested for dealing cocaine. Or that he and his wife were arrested for embezzlement. So please give up when the month is over and move on. You tried. Don't beat the dead horse.
To paraphrase the stock market guru John Holmes.
"It's not how big your brand is...it's how you utilize it."
Steven Zale has never shown to be a big brand kinda guy. Always bragging and sending out PR on how big his brand is but yet it's not the size of the brand...but how deep the brand penetrates into the retail market that really counts. The sales of his brand come up short.
This ship is sinking. Start tossing the life-rafts.
The "dreamers" will go down with the ship. I am sure the "captain" has other plans to save himself.
Sales have not begun. Remember $58,000,000 projected revenue. This year so far has been a flop (again), ZMRK still has to ship the non existent 58 mil in two months to get to their projected sales figure. There is no infrastructure in place to meet their expectations. There are no sales, as everything is ALWAYS coming shortly, no credible financing, really nothing at all except wishful thinking press releases to inflate the price per share. The stock holders have no choice but to hold onto their shares as they can't get what they paid for them. The press release that came out Friday was certainly in time for investors to buy in. But dilution of the pps is eminent, no big investor will purchase stock as the credibility of Zalemark and the convicted felon Steven Zale is nonexistent. You have no choice but to wait closer to year end to make your decision.
Investors want to have confidence in ZMRK leadership. I am so disappointed to have found out Steven Zale is a convicted felon who was arrested for dealing cocaine out of his jewelry store many years ago. And then to find out that he and his wife were arrested years back for embezzling hundreds of thousands of dollars from a company his wife worked for...this really doesn't give me confidence in his leadership skills. Especially after years and years of losses. I definitely would like to see Zalemark undergo real audited financial statements by a "big four" accounting firm that won't trade stock for their services.
A nice listing Mick, but no $ale$ revenue$.
Stockholders really want to see something tangible: LIKE REVENUE!!!
ZMRK can certainly get a license to distribute or manufacture product as witnessed by all the press releases that have been posted. They can certainly pump out PR. But somehow it's been overlooked that they haven't made any sales. Can someone explain that? If you look at the past years financials you may notice no significant sales over so so many years. You may also notice never a profit but millions in losses. And if you look at the pps you will see a tremendous sharp ever increasing annual decline.
And the more I think about the recent financial development that has been press released the more I know this finance company only cares about upfront fees. It's quite obvious when you read their investment philosophy. They don't want to interfere with management or direction. Well, if I was to input a $1,000,000 in ZMRK then I would want controlling interest or certainly a say in how the company is run. I-Glow has really done some brilliant research showing what a truly toxic lender Steven Zale got involved with.
Brilliant work by I-Glow. Zalemark got stung.
Big anouncement regarding the JTV lawsuit coming soon. OK, the convicted felon Steven Zale (who by the way was arrested for dealing cocaine and who along with his wife were arrested for embezzlement) did pull off this $1,000,000 financing deal. So I expect the JTV financial settlement will be paid and an announcement will be forthcoming. But it's just a million dollars. This company las lost millions in the past few years. Will they now start paying their employees money instead of worthless stock. They owe too much money. They have no credibility with vendors who will certainly require upfront payments for orders that are placed. They are going to go through that $million so fast. It's not enough to get by on. It's a very short term fix to keep the wolves away. I would love to see how many shares were given for that million and also the structure that was required. No wonder Steven Zale has been distancing himself from the company...it makes logical sense that the new "mark" wouldn't want him as the front man.
$1,000,000 is like a band-aid on a severed limb with this company.
As always, this is my quite educated opinion (after all...who else's opinion would it be).
Big DILUTION coming. Zalemark needed the extra 75,000,000 shares to find and entice a new investor. I am wondering how many shares the gave away for the million bucks. My guess is all 75 million shares or a little more to gain controlling interest. But money still doesn't buy you market share in stores. So who is Zalemark selling to? Many past investors have lost millions with Zalemark and in my opinion these guys will follow suit. Please name a retailer who is selling any Zalemark jewelry.
Show some proof that the lawsuit has been settled and Zalemark fulfilled their obligations.
Always "wishful thinking" but no meaningful announcements ever.
This is what was posted on October 4, 2015.
"$ZMRK...I heard rumor said news will hit within 1-2 weeks and it is one of the biggest news that ZMRK will ever release
Go $ZMRK"
Well, one or two weeks have come and gone and we still haven't heard what the "biggest news" announcement is or was. So obviously the "big deal" fell through. Did ZMRK not sell a huge account? Did ZMRK not get their much needed funding? What happened? Or was this posted just to pump the pps like so many other fairy tale promises.
Big news is coming soon.
But this is Crayola and M&M's.
This is the golden ticket.
Big announcement next week.
Strap yourself in. Put you seatbelt on.
This ship is ready to sail.
Why is it that Zalemark and it's convicted felon leader can't tell us what stores any of his "brands" are being sold in? I really need some Dog Boxer jewelry. Or how about Englebert Humperdinck Jewelry? Or Demeter? Or anyone for that matter.
If the lawsuit was "old news" then ZMRK would have mentioned the final settlement amount in their financial statements. The lawsuit stays open until the settlement obligations are met. And that is early December.
Whatever Zalemark is selling it certainly isn't jewelry. And hasn't been for years.
The JTV lawsuit against ZMRK is quite relevant. The lawsuit doesn't close until early December and that is only if Zalemark settles the financial obligations of the suit. What is it that you don't understand. It is quite simple. If Zalemark meets the financial obligations of the settlement then it's over. But if they don't then the lawsuit is still open.
The terms of the settlement stated that Zalemark MUST meet certain monetary settlement obligations within 150 days of the signed agreement between JTV and the defendants. The defendants are Zalemark Holding, the convicted felon Steven Zale and Luxury Brands etc. If the obligations are not met prior to that 150 day period then the settlement will be null and void and the lawsuit is still ongoing. This was a $4,000,000 lawsuit. I-Glow has graciously posted those terms here many times.
New quarterly financials are due out mid next month. Hopefully Zalemark or the convicted felon Steven Zale, who along with his wife were arrested for embezzlement, will mention how the terms of the JTV lawsuit and subsequent settlement mandated to be resolved by early December will affect the company. These facts should have been addressed in the previous financials as they are material to a stockholders decisions.
And what about the JTV lawsuit against Zalemark and the convicted felon Steven Zale who has been arrested for dealing cocaine plus arrested for embezzlement. ZMRK has to finalize the settlement to JTV by early December. Those are the terms of the settlement...or the lawsuit isn't finalized. I don't know how much money ZMRK has to pay them but I do know (after reading the company's financial statements) that ZMRK can't make any payments as they are not liquid. Oh...they are liquid with more shares though. In fact 75,000,000 more shares. But the problem seems to be that Zalemark can't convert those shares to cash as investors are shying away from this company. And if they were lucky enough to find someone to take those shares then DILUTION drops the stock price in half.
The ring my wife like was copied by convicted felon Steven Zale from a catalog from some guy in Europe. Most of the jewelry looks like it would sell at K-Mart in a clearance showcase. You wouldn't find these pieces at Bloomingdales, Saks, etc. etc.
Look closely at the links that Mirage posted. The bottom two that show Seventeen inexpensive costume jewelry at Sears or K-Mart is not from Zalemark. It from a current Seventeen licensee that has nothing to do with Zalemark. If there was any Seventeen jewelry from Zalemark ever in Kay Jewelers it certainly hasn't been there for years. In fact I can't find one retail store selling anything from Zalemark. And if Zalemark and the convicted felon Steven Zale really have "direct access to over 30,000 retail jewelry stores", then surely they have to be selling jewelry to someone. Thirty thousand stores and they can't name one. Why would you believe ANYTHING Zalemark or the convicted felon Steven Zale says.
Nothing relevant on Demeter Jewelry by Rachael Hunter. Only old stuff from 2006 to 2010. Is there something I missed? Were there any significant sales made this year to achieve the 58 mil that ex felon Steven Zale projected. The third quarter has come and gone and the extension to the end of October is rapidly coming to a close. What excuse is coming next?
Oh wow! Patricia Rose. Kickstarter $100,000 funding cancelled. She tried to raise 100 grand last November and December and got all the way up to $630 from three investors. How much revenue did Zalemark take in off this collection?
Did they sell anything to ANY retailers? I don't want to see pictures of Patricia Rose jewelry or Crayola displays or packaging. SHOW ME THE ORDERS. Please show us the $58 million in projected sales for this year. Show us something tangible. Instead of the promised PR, ZMRK and convicted felon Steven Zale throw out pictures to try and convince the naive investors to keeping hanging in.
Now let me try to find Demeter product...ANYWHERE.
One would think the die hard penny investors would be the ones calling Zalemark for some answers. If you seriously had some bucks that you gambled with, then don't you think it would be the prudent thing to call ZMRK and ask what all the delays are about. After all Zalemark sent out their PR stating the audit, the uplist, the projected revenues, the projected after tax profit and also listed the retailers they would be selling. Don't you want to know what is going on? It's an easy call to make.
