ICPA NEWS OUT!
IC Places Announces New President, Joseph Collins, Jr. and Steve Samblis as CEO and Chairman of the Board
2012-07-26 19:24 ET - News Release
LOS ANGELES , July 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- IC Places, Inc. (OTCQB: ICPA) -- The growth and development of the United States has always been catalyzed by forward-thinking visionaries who see a future not perceived by others, and who embrace as possibilities which are deemed impossible by their peers. Both Steve Samblis and Joseph Collins reflect these attributes. Steve Samblis , CEO of IC Places, Inc. is pleased to announce that industry veteran and former CEO of Punch TV Network, Joseph Collins Jr. , has joined IC Places, a transmedia entertainment company, as President, effective July 10, 2012 . This follows the purchase of Punch TV Network by IC Places earlier this month. Mr. Collins will be replacing Mr. Steve Samblis as President while Mr. Samblis will be CEO and Chairman of the Board of IC Places.
"IC Places welcomes the addition of Mr. Collins' wisdom, tenure and leadership in the entertainment industry to the IC Places community," said Mr. Steve Samblis , CEO and Chairman of the Board of IC Places. "Mr. Collins is an innovator and trailblazer in the industry and he will be an integral part of the IC Places/Punch team as we continue to further capitalize on our company's entertainment offerings."
In his new role as President of IC Places, Inc., Mr. Collins will be responsible for the production of original programming, acquisition of existing programming, and the scheduling and management of the day-to-day operations of Punch TV network and its many offerings.
"Over the past few years, as President and CEO of Punch TV Network, I've steered the company into some exciting initiatives and I'm impressed with how quickly they have evolved into a fully realized media and entertainment network," said Collins. "As President of IC Places/Punch, I will continue to grow our brand in unprecedented reach, scale and promotional power in the industry."
A native Angeleno, Joseph Collins grew up with a fascination of television. After high school, Joseph Collins landed an internship with WVTV in Milwaukee, Wisconsin . His flare and contagious personality helped him grow from an intern to working as the youngest news anchor to report the business news. During his 30 years in television production and programming, Joseph has accumulated a long list of accomplishments. Along with the production of over 1000 TV commercials to his credit, Mr. Collins has received recognitions for his vision. Specifically, Mr. Collins was presented with the 1996 Entrepreneur of the Year Award by Senator Diane Feinstein , Senator Fred Aguilar , and Senator Barbara Boxer . Additionally, he has received accolades from City Council members. His rich entrepreneurial spirit and accomplishments led to the creation of Punch TV. Punch TV Network is a 24/7 network with 70% original programming. In addition to linking consumers with never-before-seen advertising, Joseph Collins has implemented commercial-free advertising – an opportunity for companies to bypass the oversaturation associated with television advertising by incorporating information about a company's product into the storyline of Punch's scripted shows. Another innovation brought to the world of television by Joseph Collins is the production of novel versions of its TV shows. These novels provide an opportunity for companies to insert print ads into these pages. This represents an update on magazine and newspaper advertising. Joseph Collins also created an in-house ad agency so that advertisers can avoid the losses that accompany repetitive ads. Punch TV also has a music division that produces original music of all genres. It is less than surprising that Joseph Collins has utilized the theme, Are you thirsty yet? for Punch TV Network.
Mr. Steve Samblis , now CEO and Chairman of the Board of IC Places, began his entrepreneurial endeavors with several successful businesses and eventually entered the investment industry. For example, Mr. Samblis consulted with the Michigan Senate in regards to securities legislation. While taking a break from the brokerage industry, he founded a company that produced and marketed audio programs. In addition, Mr. Samblis co-hosted The Worlds' Most Powerful Marketing Tool with author, Mark Victor Hansen of Chicken Soup For The Soul fame. Returning to the brokerage industry, Mr. Samblis became widely regarded as an expert on IPOs, and his IPO analyses were quoted in over 200 magazines, ranging from Time to The Wall Street Journal. Dow Jones News credited Mr. Samblis' quotes as ushering in the hottest new issue in the history of the stock market, Netscape. Later, Steve hosted the Investor's Institute, a TV show which aired nationally. During the show, Steve toured the U.S. and delivered seminars on IPOs to thousands of people. Steve then took his passion for self-help programs and created www.SelfhelpCenters.com - the ultimate destination for people looking to build success into their lives. In 2003, Steve followed his passion for Travel and founded www.ICPlaces.com . Most recently, Steve orchestrated the purchase of Punch TV Network.

REREAD : !!
The negative postings and inuendos on the various message boards
troubles me deeply as they are not only false but result in
distractions from the tasks which we are doing each day to lay a solid
foundation and build a global business.
Facebook 25 mins ago !
I have tried to keep shareholders apprised of the significant
accomplishments which have been completed by the Company,
while we have made great strides, each step requires the building of a
solid foundation and management team to be assured that whatever we
sign on to/or with will end up maximizing shareholder value.
Nothing has occured with respect to any of our current, past or
proposed transactions which, has caused me to believe that these plans
and their related outcomes will not come to fruition,
Indeed, certain of the doors which have been opened are the direct
result of the partnerships and ventures we have forged with some of
the leading figures in American business.
The fact that we have been invited to join the OTCQX reaffirms the
stability of our Company and the fact that we have made and continue
to make all announcements and filings with the SEC on a timely basis.
The negative postings and inuendos on the various message boards
troubles me deeply as they are not only false but result in
distractions from the tasks which we are doing each day to lay a solid
foundation and build a global business.
I look forward to continuing to increase our various alliances and
partnerships which, will be a source of revenues and profits to the
Company and insure our continued growth,

3mill 600 thou since Monday ?

It is called naked art or manipulation.
Yes when we do get our precious news the will run for cover !!!
17 HOURS AGO ON FACE BOOK....READ IT ! GO ICPA !!!
Reread and that should clear up your confusion if your able...go ICPA !!!!
Let me reply to Reini, Brian and everyone in one post. There is a great deal going on which we have not yet spoke about. Since we closed the Punch TV deal there has been an avalanche of opportunities come our way. We are moving on many of the and will share when the time is right.
I want to talk a second about something we feel is a very important move for ICPA. It may not be press worthy but it will have a great positive effect for the company and our share holders.
I have been very clear that our goal is to move to the NASDAQ. We currently trade on the OTCQB. From a trading stand point there is one level above us called the OCTQX after that the next highest trading level is the NASDAQ.
The OTCQX is the premier tier of the OTC securities market. It provides all investors with an objective way to distinguish the best OTC-traded companies. Investor-focused companies like IC Places. The OTCQX platform offers investors transparent trading, superior information, and easy access through a regulated U.S. broker dealer of their choice.
It appears based on conversations with the exchange that we meet the requirements to move up. This level is not based on current share price but on reporting and disclosure.
An area this will make a big difference is with with "Blue Sky". “Blue Sky” laws are securities regulations that govern the offer and sale of securities in each U.S. state and territory. Each state has its own unique Blue Sky requirements, designed to protect investors against fraud.
The 630,000 registered securities representatives from the 4,400+ FINRA-member broker-dealer firms in the U.S. are unable to solicit and have regulatory restrictions on accepting orders in a security from investors in a state where that security is not Blue Sky compliant.
This OTCCX listing will reduce the expense and filing burdens of individual state compliance and can help us qualify for an exemption in up to 38 states. This means we will dramatically open up the potential brokers and investor base throughout the US.
We have begun the process which will take about 30-40 days to make the move. I feel this will best serve all current and potential shareholders.
I see that vndm has taken a position @ .06 or so. Maybe with him out of the way we can go ! Our day is coming, REAL SOON !! go ICPA !!!
A Multi million dollar company is trading for .02 ! Did you read that right ? I said a MULTI MILLION DOLLAR COMPANY is trading for .02 Strap it on GUYS and GALS....it is coming !!! WOW...I cant hardly believe that people don't understand THIS !! GO ICPA !!!!
na na na naa...na na na naa..... hey hey hey... GOOOOD BYE..ICPA SHORTY FREE in 10 DAYS !!! SLICRIC SAID THAT !!!!! ICPA IS AWESOME !!!
vndn fell out...110k to .021 !
The fact that we are the only ones that know about it could change everything for tomorrow if he does a media release ! go ICPA !!
Thinking maybe a PR for the media tomorrow with more information ? Sounds possible to me !
