Do you have a clue how big the energy market is and that this will show up in some of the biggest retailers in the USA. Also the shot is ground breaking as its energy that that is healthy up against what regulation is coming from the FDA on energy shots this Fall this gives it tons of cred for buyers. Energy gets 5 to 7 more turns than hangover will. IF they take 2% of the market share from 5hour this is a 10mm dollar company not counting the Hangover brand growing both domestically and internationally. They will use this shot to leverage more growth also for the hangover shot. I am in the beverage business and this is huge. Beverage Industry Magazine is already out about it with and article and others will follow this shot will show up in tons of cstores. I predict 7-11 and tons of other cstore changes pick this up and I expect them to do a massive introduction at NACS show in Vegas in the fall. You might not get it but this is a massive game changer to the category of energy and to the company.
No I was told back in Feb they start all production in March don't quote me but that is what I was told.
I don't believe there in production till March as I was told
It's @GitRDoneEnergy is the new twitter. I also think Hangover Joe's is going to have no problem with raising capital. This new product will bring lots of deals to their door. I assume they got deals in place and that will be part of the future announcements and distribution deals. Like I said before, Larry is a huge corporation and his legal team and people would never have done a deal if HJOE could not GIT-R-DONE in the capital department and sales department. Seeing Larry actively posting to over 3.5 million followers has more than convinced me he believes and is onboard and as a team they are going to GIT-R-Done.
I was looking at the new twitter account for GIT-R-DONE-ENERGY and Larry is retweeting Hangover Joe's no doubt he all in with HJOE on this product.
Well this is for anyone who had a doubt that Larry is not behind this product this was just emailed to me. I guess this answers to everyone question about if Larry is onboard to promote Hangover Joe's is answered in his post to millions of his Facebook fans. I am now totally convince myself that this is going to be a home run they need to get to production and GIT-R-Done. This is from Larry a bit ago himself. WOW!!!

Get-R-Done!!!
I have always said to believe and I am a true believer in Hangover Joe's. This has Wal-Mart and even Dollar General as a natural candidate 16,000 DG stores alone not to mention all the independent stores and regional chains. Wait till Hangover Joe's start doing the trade shows and convenience store shows. It's going to be big time selling time for GIT-R-DONE-ENERGY.
Look like Beverage Industry Magazine is already out with a story on Hangover Joe's and some of the stuff in the shot. Astaxanthin, this my wife said was on Dr. Oz not long back its a breakthrough antioxidant. This is cool beans cutting edge drink.
http://www.bevindustry.com/articles/87203-hangover-joes-to-launch-git-r-done-energy-shot
They posted this on their FB today. I assume capital is coming and distribution deals. He said more big news over next month.
As promised "Beverage World Rocked" big news with more big news coming behind this over the next month. Our phones have been ringing this morning from Beverage Magazines to news outlets to distributors. We are going to GIT-R-Done with GIT-R-Done Energy. Believe Y'all, We now have Fuel For Working Folks. Wait till you see the new" Camo Git-R-Done Girls" , Like the Iconic Hangover Nurses these girls will be showing up at events as we roll the product out this spring and summer. New website for this product , facebook and @GitRdoneEnergy to come soon. More big news following we promise.
Larry is a top brand his people would of vetted Hangover Joe's and they know there is money to move the brand and roll it out. Guys like this don't do deals nor do their attorneys or financial people let them if they had not vetted that Hangover Joes is bring the capital to the table to GIT-R-Done plain and simple. That a no brainer to figure out.
I was told the it has no added caffeine but that it creates natural caffeine in the body and that It is powered by some major new ground breaking energy antioxidants supplements. The key is the market is running away from caffeine and the FDA is going to regulate caffeine in energy drinks this is a very smart move for Hangover Joe's. Who says they won't make one with caffeine as well but I heard that we will here much more on the science of the shot soon. My guy said it ramps him up massive. I will be getting a few samples soon and will report back
Sorry I typed so fast and just let it go. I just got off with my guy it's better that you might of thought my guy says 7 percent royalty to Larry better than WB deal but Larry is tied into tons of marketing and he said other things that will be announced soon. He said Larry met them at the Super Bowl a year ago and Larry started using Hangover Joe's and was such a fan of the brand and they got together on this and started developing. Said Larry loved the Hangover Shot and wanted to be part of the company and this was the perfect way. The branding is genius. I told him to Congrats to the whole team.
I must admit this is bigger than i couldn't of ever imagined, how they kept this under wraps is amazing. This is so over the top and on target for what is going on in the beverage world. I mean they are launching a Healthy Energy Shot brilliant folks, there is so much stuff going on with the law suites on 5hr and Monster and Red Bull and Rock Star, there cannot be better timing than now for this. The branding i have to say is brilliant beyond brilliant. From Duck Dynasty to Moonshiners to all the reality TV shows Red Neck is in and does this product have Wal-Mart written all over it or not. This is taylor made for Wal-Mart people and the energy marker in general. Larry fits that demographic its taylor made for the market of energy in the USA and who consume these products. Why is it a good deal because it is going to bring more turns to the company. I can tell you retailers are going to be all over this. You know money is coming behind this type of deal. With hangover they have to educate the public its a totally new category hangover they have to know when to use before after during etc. Energy is energy plain and simple and its an ever expanding univere. Larry would of never got in unless he and his people where convince HJOE could take this to the next level so you know there is money coming behind this and there will be big sales coming. I will sell so much of this its going to make our head spin here it will fly off the shelve. Energy products are consumed by 80% percent men who are basically blue collar and this fits the demographic and now it also fits what the beverage world has been seeking a healthy choice that provides energy and is good for people no sugar and no caffiene with no crash, this is like a dream i really am amazed. People can i say Hangover Joe's has hit it out of the park in my opinion. I see why my guy said i was going to love this, and go nuts. I going to sell so much of this in Georgia its not going to be funny. Energy gets so many more turns that hangover there going to kill with this. GIT-R-DONE you have to love it. You know there going to use it also with retailers to force more placement of Hangover Joe's you want larry then you buy 3 case and 1 case of Joe's i see that coming its a win for both brands. This is on code with the culture in America & Canada and this will take the company to a new level the turns are going to be massive with this product. They are the first to market with a Healthy Energy Shot, that is huge a new category health & wellness. I cannot wait to get a few samples and try it. I am calling today to see if i can get a few samples sent to me as a distributor ASAP or soon as available. This will bring more sales and more investment to this company no doubt, i do see how this will Rock the Beverage World. I cannot wait to see the science behind the shot, i assume will hear more on this soon. The one thing with Hangover Joe's is they do make a product that taste good and works and if this does all of that and provides good energy they sky is the limit in sales and the marketing is brilliant. Fuel for Working Folks you got love it. this has NASCAR all over it and i predict this people it's going to be massive. I assume Larry is going to promote the heck out of this on shows and his radio program and comedy tour and i assume will see national ads. This guy has millions following him on FB and he is on TV everytime i turn around in ads talk shows he part of American pop culture. They could not have come up with a better name that will resonate with millions of millions of Americans. GIT-R-DONE-ENERGY that is brilliant. I can hear it now in the stores give me a GIT-R-DONE i got go GIT-R-DONE people will embrase the hell out of this brand. It's still going to be a marathon and not a sprint as well, but this shows that these guys can put together huge deals. This is why the last 6 months they resturctured now we have a clue of what has been going on. There going after the energy market and i assume there lining up money and as i said before this has Wal-Mart written all over it and most major retailers will be all over this. I assume they already have it set to role with Mclain and Core-Mark and will be seeing full page ads in the beverage magazine and will also be seeing over the next weeks the beverage world respond with articles on this product. Health & Wellness is also one of the next big things like Hangover Recovery in beverages it keeps to the functional lifestyle concept at the core of the company. These guys i must admit have shock me. I was thinking more distribution money deal or another niche product. This is really folks amazing. Maybe i am different, i live in the south but i so get this. Hangover Joe's is going to GIT-R-DONE. I can see the ads in my head now. I can see Larry writing jokes about all the other shots people have filed suite of wrongful death making jokes, they will use him to promote the heck out of this thing, he also has a TV show only in America they will use him for the mass media. This looks to be totally all natural no sugar no caffinene shot, if this works and provides the energy it will be a home run i assume it does or they won't release it without tons of research and scientist designing this. You know tons of retailers are so alarmed because the FDA has been after caffiene levels in drinks this gives them the alternative the market has been seeking with the branding that is on par with 5hr. This is instant branding and i predict this is the home run of home runs and will take HJOE to a new level. Now this explains that post last week about caffeine on their FB. I don't expect the stock to go through the roof ,they got to get into production and sell sell sell but this is going to be an easy sell and i can tell you for one i want 3 pallets to start. Look at the color scheme of the bottle so smart it is similar to the Hangover Shot. I also love the camo top that is so sharp like Larry's hat and it keeps to the message and the demographic. I can see as they expand and do other flavors you change the camo to the color of the flavot like grape or pink lemonade make it pink camo, grape etc. The branding i cannot say enough its genius. This is going to fly off the shelves all over Georgia and the rest of America. Thanks, Hangover Joe's for GIT-R-DONE!!!!! I am so proud of you guy's.
Yes i spoke to my guy about 11am today checking on my order. He said lawyers are holding it up and they wanted it out Monday but he said these guys are doing all the legal work and they cannot release till the attorneys gives the green light. He also told me that i personally will love this news. Then he said there is big news and then there will be other news over next few weeks once released and that they have been going full throttle on a few fronts. That all he gave up i pushed him. Told him waiting is driving me nuts.
I know its like being in Japan. I stayed at the Royal Hawaiian hotel I thought I was in Japan, they were drinking day night in hotel. You saw those ABC stores they are packed day and night. Hangover Joe's scored getting in those stores they will sell so many shots in ABC.
I see they landed ABC stores. I have been in those stores they are all over Honolulu, Hawaii on every corner. We were out there a few years ago for Christmas and I was impressed with how stocked those stores were. Hawaii is full of Japanese tourist so they will sell a ton of shots in those ABC stores. It's like Vegas and Nola another huge drinking party area. It's on their FB today.
I think a lot of people know they been struggling I have not heard anyone say they thought it was over in the beverage crowed. There are a lot of other hangover products coming to the market. I have seen since the first of the year 3-5 new product released. This just show the category is growing there will be even more coming this year. I believe Hangover Joe's has the best chance of any of these companies to take the category. The key is sales and raising money. I myself would like to see them have other brand extensions into niche functional beverage like Margret mention the other day on the board that would lead to make more sales and the company being more than just single use product. I think this could help as one product can lead them to introduce the other and create more sales. I am hoping for more domestic and I really want to see them focus on international sales more Japan type deals. What I like about that is in another country you have another company building the market spending there money on marketing and growing the brand and all Hangover Joe's has to do is produce and ship and use those dollars to focus on growing the USA market.
I think it can be a international brand I actually think it can sell bigger outside the USA than in because the rest of the world is not as conservative and I think hangover recovery is a global category. I think we see them focusing on more international deals in the near future.
How would I know that 5hr almost went under, well I have been following beverages for over 20 years. I actually set in where the owner of 5hr some years ago was the guess speaker at a bevnet conference in California and he detailed this and how they failed in Walgreens and got kicked out of the chain in the early years. This was back in 2007 as I recall he is very rare to speak or do interviews. Because the category was so new an that energy wouldn't sell know one understood the function he stated. Something else you might find interesting is that before he made it a shot he designed it as a pill for a hangover. I remember at that very conference he stated he thought that someday a hangover drink also would be a very good concept, he explained also how he came about creating 5hr. It's a long story quite funny actually and how they struggled and his family in India was funding him and they almost cut off the funds because they were not convinced he could make it happen. This has also been documented in beverage magazines etc. Vitamin Water the same thing before the celeb deals in the first 3 years the brand struggled, I should know I was one of the first guys to distribute it in the mid south we actually had a buy back clause and it took us months to move it on the shelves it didn't sell well in the beginning but I was a big believer in the brand. The owners have told the story many time that it only sold in high end areas of NYC and on the upper east side and it was almost impossible to get it in the stores in queens and other working class areas of NYC. They have said many time the huge fight in the early days was who is going to pay for water with vitamins. They have been very public once again at bevnet they spoke only 3 years ago in June in NYC that the brand almost went under a few times and it was not till they got to 36 million in sales did they make a profit. These are the facts and it was a marathon not a sprint for these brands and it was tons of sampling and what did all of these guys do but pioneer a new category. You might not like the comparison but in the early days it was very similar. They all fought to get money to build the brand and all fought for distribution and to create a market niche. Another example of this is Lance Collins who actually is a fan I hear of Hangover Joe's he was the founder of Fuse Beverage and they to suffered in the early days. They sold it to coke when it got to around 11 million cases which is not that much in distribution Coke bought Fuse as I recall for 200MM but it also suffer in the early days first 3-4 years and Lance is now fighting to build Body Armour a niche brand health drink but has had some problems in recent months but he back and trying to hit another home run.
There is no hangover product that is on the market to compare with this nor none that has reached the market share they have with Hangover Joe's. I agree the turn around time is now! I am all with you on this and I think Veal is the guy to do this. Remember in 2013 the co-founders were parked on the bench while the so called experts and consultants were but in the drivers seat and those guys ran it almost in the ground and took bad money deals. I think the co-founders taking the company back over and Veal now in charge and new legal counsel and Veal ability to raise money and the Japan contract and whatever else is coming that we will see will be a huge turn around in 2014. But with beverage companies this is still so young of a company. That where the marathon not a sprint is for me. I have watch beverage companies for years and this really has a shot but it will not happen over night. Vitamin Water almost went under and so did 5hr and even Monster in those early years, I remember. We are now starting officially a year and half since the company went public, most don't grow massive overnight but I think this company can grow and take this category. The product works and taste good but its all about sales and more sales. I agree with you on that for sure. I am ready for them to start moving. I agree the time is now.
I have no clue but I assume they know what there doing and will release as soon as they can.
I have order in for March 1 delivery for St. Paddy day to stores. We are running low but I make it till then. I agree the show is a step in the right direction.
That not sampling but it is a good sign. That is the Core-Mark western division trade show where buyers from Cstores in Vegas and the west coast come in and place orders for the brand. I take that as a positive step that they are doing shows again and taking orders from stores. So this show that shipping and filling orders are starting up again.
I thing your wrong as TCA my guy told me was not going to be a problem and would be resolved and it would be explained soon. The co-founders I can tell you don't want to dilute the company nor does Veal. I think the increase has nothing to do with TCA but the new CEO is moving the company in a direction of raising capital in the future. The key is they now have more shares but how many they put on the street is the real question. I trust that this Matt Veal guy knows what he is doing. I have heard nothing but good things about him and that he has been successful in turning companies around.
I agree with you there that is what Matt Veal is all about he has ran public companies for 20 years. He has just been on the Job a month so lets give him a chance to get this going. But these bashers saying he is incompetent is unreal. He got 20 years experience in raising capital, he was an SEC auditor and he has turned a few companies around. Hangover Joe's have taken a step in the right direction making him CEO
I assume most people don't even know news is coming. Most of Hangover Joe's fans are not shareholders. I think we might here something soon my guy seamed to be more excited. They are very tight lipped and if it is that big they have done a heck of a job keeping it quite or the market would be responding if there was a leak.
I have spoke to the company and this law suite will be resolved and it is being put to bed. He said its not an issue and also he told me the big news is getting closer and he cannot wait to personally share with me. He said I am going to personally loose my mind. I cannot actually wait. He gave no date but said its going to be very soon now. He said that this is very exciting times for the company. So I thought I would post the update I have on these matters.
You make a valid point let me explain. 5hr is the giant and they own the energy category. They have had lots of bad press and their ads on TV have been attacked but the big thing now is that there is a movement against them and Monster and Rock Star for targeting young people in ads and there is a lot of wrongful death suites that 5hr is fighting, its really hurting them and they have lost some market share but not much. The same thing is going on with Monster and I have been following all this in the beverage magazine and on Bevnet. SK is owned by the rapper 50 cent and he made fortune in Vitamin Water as they gave him lots of stock for ads etc. plus he wealthy from rap. He started SK which is know as Street King. It basically has been targeting more urban area and cities. Sales as you think would dictate the counter but it does not, let me explain. They are paying what is know as slotting fees or huge rebates to the retailer for counter space. It's called pay to play. Hangover Joe's has got in the stores because its a new category and has great branding also, 7-11 is a believer in the category, but the key is they don't pay to play or have the money to do this at this time. A typical chain store is $50 to $75 for slotting fees for a counter so take that times 4K stores its lots of money over chains etc. to get on these counters. I hope that answers you question. See i have been watching what is going on 5hr is a giant but your correct its not all cracked up to be what they advertise, there a lot of not natural stuff in here and sugar and caffeine which the market is actually getting beat up on there is a movement in beverage to be sugar free and promote health etc . SK have spent 20mm and still cannot touch 5hr because well the branding in my opinion is not strong enough its really not good at all and they focus big on an African American demographic their billboard are all over the inner cities. 5hr believe me can be taken down or loose market share in time but its going to take a strong brand and that going to take money and a product that creates energy without all the problems that 5hr and these energy drinks are fighting. That time will come I believe in time some brand will rise to take them on but I see nothing in the market that can do it at this time. Hangover Joe's is not energy but hangover and that category will never get the turns of energy and you really cannot compare the two. Yes the bottle looks the same but its all about the branding and the function and the category. Hangover Joe's has an opportunity I think to be a global brand as well as domestic. Energy only sells massive in the USA and 5hr cannot even get listed in the UK or other countries based on what is in the product. Hangover Joe's need to continue to focus on the category and grow the brand. It's going to take time and money. Also being a new category its harder as I sell the product and unlike energy you have to educate the consumer. Energy is energy but hangover they want to know do I take it before I drink, do I mix it with my drink, do I take it before I go to bed, we have to always educated the consumer at the store level unlike energy. Just giving you my insights as I see it folks.
I am for sure not the stock guy but I did catch something interesting in the recent fillings the anti dilution stuff that the owners don't get dilution. I don't know if you caught that in there but made me think that there is massive money dilution maybe coming but the company has agreement with them that they are always at the current position and they don't face dilution. You might look that anti dilution clause that was file it was in the Q or maybe it was a separate filing but I read this in last week or two. I found that to be very interesting of things that must be going on behind the scene.
You are correct. The key is that I spoke to my guy this morning as I have placed a order to have into stores for St. Paddy's day. He said that Veal know his stuff and this Asher deal was a bridge or something to something else to get some brokers and sales people for the company paid based on an upcoming push. He said this stuff will be paid off and that this stock will never convert to free trading. He said Veal got a lot of stuff cooking and his motto is that we earn our way out of this and we do deals that give us instant value to earn our way back etc. So I not worried. You are correct these guys are hard working it is a real company and a real brand and its in my opinion an international brand. I think the company is in good hands with Veal. The company is moving forward and will achieve and will sell millions in product and grow the brand. Its a marathon as I always say not a sprint folks.
I agree with you. I believe your totally right about Matt Veal. I hear he has taken companies who had bad debit and bad finance deals and turned them around usually in a few years. If you look at the PR release Veal says he has been involved for 20 years with many companies but this look like one of the most promising deals he has ever seen. Here is what I think is going on. Hangover Joe's is doing some financial deals as we just saw in the filing today that are to get a few bucks in the company with plans to sell there way out of these deals with there contracted sales. They have a contract for 10mm bottles plus we know they have lots of back orders because they have been restructuring and not shipping. I think its key that Veal is now leading them as the co-founders are great marketers but they don't get the public space. They have the vision and can sell the brand we have seen this from the start but they don't understand raising capital and the public sector. They got in a world they didn't understand and now Veal is in charge and will lead the company in time to the black and beyond. I hear he has brought a Wall Street attorney on board who is also an SEC guy and is another large player at raising capital which is good. This company is going to turn around and sell millions, I think we all know the potential with the brand and the category. Today my wife called the office and said Fox News did a special this morning about how hangover recovery is now a trendy growing category showing Vegas and NYC and places where people are paying $200 bucks to get an IV solution which won't have mass appeal but shows the category is growing on a lot of fronts. My guy over their told me that the news that is coming is being held up with lawyers doing final stuff on contracts, he told me that its going to blow my mind. I ask is this more distribution and he said you know I cannot tell you but your going to love it. He said this will change everything exact words he used. So in my opinion its either distribution, a cash infusion or a brand extension with capital infusion etc. I guess I keep guessing, but I think from the way he acts it is indeed huge news for Hangover Joe's. This will not turn around overnight, like I said this is a marathon not a sprint and I was saying that when things were on track in 2012. I expect to see lots of shipping and sales and stores getting stocked once we get to the spring and summer and a push into the fall. I have been reading and talking to people about Veal he looks to have over 20 years in raising capital for micro caps, he was an auditor and a tax CPA and specializes in start ups. I think the co-founders taking charge and taking the company back and bring Veal in is a good thing for us all. I think for where this company is now it could not be in better hands than a guy like Veal. He has been here before and knows what needs to be done in my opinion.
I ask my guy on Monday. He did tell me they were going to start production back in the end of Feb first of March. I ask about the news and he said this exactly. We are going to announce as soon as the lawyers tell us all is set and in place so we can announce. So from this I assume that its another huge distribution contract of some kind but I do not know for sure. He said to me when I can tell you, your going to go wild. That is just what he said, I am waiting on edge of my seat for this news. He told me to put my next order in around Feb 15th and that they are going to start production runs and also runs for Japan in late Feb early March. So this is what I know.
That's not the news but that is Vegas radio that plays in morning drive out there. I think that is funny so politically incorrect just like the brand. The product is all over Vegas as Core
Mark had a massive supply a semi load and have continued to fill all the locations in Vegas as well as Nola, while they have been restructuring and raising capital etc.
A word to those who don't get it leave and sell. But you don't because you actually believe. The last day of the year we would of saw massive selling off if that was the case we didn't see that happen. Since the first of the year the stock has traded well and has gained except for today it was slow but overall trading has been good and more people are buying than selling. I think there are many believers out there. I talk to people in the industry, they are all betting on HJOE and a lot of them are actually buying stock. There are a lot of other supporters on this board beside myself and I have a feeling there will be big news soon and money into the company. I also predict both growth domestically and internationally. This is not a company for the weak, so sell if you must but I doubt you will. Joe's is about ready to totally go in 2014 and beyond.
Once again this is why I am so done posting on this board for the last time I am not with Hangover Joe's. They have a girl who did their social media and from what I was told she has been let go in the last week or so. I am not with the company. I do distribute the product and a few on this board did meet me at their party in Las Vegas at NACS in 2012 and know that I am not with the company. I have bad dyslexia sorry but that the facts.
Hangover Joe's has been raising capital and restructuring and no one has been bigger in this category than them. There is not another hangover product that has ever done over 1mm in sales or has the DSD and distribution channels they have created nor the branding. I wouldn't go selling anytime soon if I were you, but sell if you wish or must. They have a capital CEO now and the co-founders have taken over daily operations of the company. I think a big turn around is coming. The key is contracts for 10 mm bottle are in place and they are positioning themselves to handle the market which is smart. 2013 with the advisor they hired and the bad capital deals got them moving in the wrong direction. As always its a marathon and not a sprint. I was told they will be letting us know soon on news that is coming. I am on the edge of my chair waiting for this like the rest of you.
I have a good stock that should last till Feb 14. I will be talking reorder soon but I have no clue on their shipping or if they are back loading stores. I believe my guy told me they didn't plan on moving again till Feb back in Dec. He said they were restructuring so I cannot really tell you what is up here.
No I have not spoke to him except after he called and said he pulled product from the New York distributor and he was stocked up for Jan. I got jumped on here before so I am staying on focus about the company just try to move as you best see fit
I just saw that and yes I sent that to John over there early this morning. Love it.
I agree with you there, they have to sell like hell and keep moving raise capital and bring on more sales. There is only one way out and that is to sell themselves out of it. I 100% percent agree with you but what I am saying is the market is there and very viable and this can be done. I would like to see them pop some more big deals and I am looking forward to what the big news is as well.
