Read the entries carefully. Many of them are actually still for EESO. Many of them are also for other area codes with the same last 7 digits. Yes there are a couple different people/companies using the same number but not really as many as you are leading people to believe. Also it is not uncommon for several small companies or individuals to share a large suite and share a common receptionist (i.e. same main number).
If anyone lives in Chicago it would be helpful if they were willing to go meet this guy at his office and then tell us what they find.
When Jared claims Bill White took off with the formulas, how can that be when in other places Jared has said he alone has the formulas and they are recorded in such a way that no one but him can decypher them.
Both statements can't be true at the same time?
Having now read the deposition it's now wonder EESO is in trouble. It's hard to believe that anyone, playing around with so much money, could really be as stupid as Jared comes across as being. At least as he tells it he just signed and did whatever he was asked to do and his reasoning was it was to reduce the company debt. There is one place in the deposition where when asked if he'd do it again he actually says yes.
It's just beyond comprehension that when asked how the number of shares and the pricing Jared has no clue, he just signed what he was asked to sign. When asked if he ever got the money for the wraps he doesn't know. Come on if you're doing the wrap to get part of your accrued salary you're really not going to know if you ever got the money. In one part we're talking about $315,000.
His other excuse for not minding the store, so to speak, is that he was always soooooo busy doing other important things like developing new products. That is a telling statement. It tells shareholders that Jared should not be runnning the company, someone with a head for business should be in there running the company.
Is there any way shareholders can band together and force new management? Heck, Jared at one point indicates he thought shareholders had voting rights. Can we take him at his word and do something?
The irony is that even after you wade through all of Jared's stupidity, you still find would should be a very viable business with significant potential.
Anyone have any ideas as to how shareholders can work together to upright the ship and get the company viable again.
This may be naive BUT is there any way of posting a copy of the full deposition in the ibox for all to see. I am currently out of the country (or at least 6 more weeks) and have very limited access (more often none) to sites like Pacer.
Any help in making information for shareholders to read would be greatly appreciated.
If you are positive on MIKP and buying based on information you are getting but then say you can't share it with the board, that is insider trading. You are making moves based on information being shared with you and not the board or public in general.
If you are not insider trading then share with the board what information you are hinting that you are getting from Mark.
You basically don't tell us anything from your phone call. What is the "stuff" he told you. For others of us to call what is the phone number that you called.
BofA has finished it's merging to Merrill Lynch. So BofA accounts would be Merrill Lynch. Does anyone know if Merrill Lynch is changing the rules for tradingj penny stocks.
Is anyone watching this today. There is a 400+% increase in share price. Does anyone know why?

I think we're back to the old problem of forward looking tweets, rah rah PRs and then nothing happens. The forward looking stuff is exciting but it's not being taken seriously by investors (IMHO). We've seen this pattern before. We had the hype on concerts, then a few (though not very successful it would appear), and dead silence for months on the concert/event scene.
There was hype on the second draft of Horse and then silence.
There was to be a press conference after IGT and then nothing. There was to be an announcement of the next IGT and so far nothing.
There's an "awareness campaign" but come on it's really not much more than sketchy pumping.
There was the PR of the "investors" that were going to buy the shares at .002 but there's really been nothing to demonstrate to shareholders or future investors that that has really happened.
We got all those great tweets on SN from the convention (but to got to admit most were pretty vague) but now no timeline, no action, no launch.
This is a repetitive problem with Mark. His heart and sole is in this company but IMHO he has not put himself in the position that most don't take the tweets and forward looking PRs very seriously.
Until REAL action happens we're not going anywhere (and hopefully not back to the trip 0s).
Mark PR'd that MIKP is moving. That's great BUT to where and when.
Mark keeps pumping SN, the future as described looks promising for SN, BUT it's time to set a date for the launch and then follow through.
Heck, if I lived in Ft Wayne instead of LA I'd volunteer to go over and help get the business plan on a schedule and push Mark and others to meet the schedule. If Mark ever really sets up an office in LA I'd be willing to help do that from LA.
Bottom line is it's time for playtime to end and real work to begin.
Today is a federal holiday. Why would you expect to see any change seen today?
Many of us would appreciate it if you'd take the time to post it anyway.
If we could get into Target I think that would be huge. I think you're right about needing to think about where "moms" shop. They are more likely to be in the Target or WallMart than Lowes or Home Depot.
What a juvenile tweet! The awareness campaign appears nonexistant. The promo sleezezzzzzz guy announces he's taking the week off so a big holder can finish selling shares. The share price keeps dropping. The Concerts/Events division seems dead, all the hype of great things coming from this division in January never materalized. Appears to be significant money/shares going out the door but no sign of any currently coming in.
AND Mark wants to tell us all that he's have a "great day at the office". I, for one, don't want to see what it would be like for the shareholders if Mark were having a "bad" day at the office.
Does anyone have any updates on this stock
Rainman you're a bit out of date. Mays died a while back.
When are we going to get more store locations in the Los Angeles area or the Pasadena area?
Have you thought about approaching UCLA or other universities in CA about our product. With the government big on going green and being environmentally friendly I'd think universities could turn use of WC into a positive when submitting or negotiaitng grants with the government.
Actually, it was not Jared that tried to settle but the others that offered to settle and the judge rejected their offer. Jared has always gave the appearance of wanting to go to trial. You need to go back and read the court documents.
Anyone have an idea as to why the sudden 15% drop?
That is a great use. Not only would it be of great value to the hair salon industry but also for all those that color their own hair at home. Or getting stains out of clothes when kids do those crazy color things to their hair.
Are you in LA for Winning Colours, other business, or pleasure?
Wow. I'm surprised IHub deleted my post. I was on topic and I wasn't attacking a poster. I was just asking a question regarding what I felt was a very leading claim with nothing that had been presented to back it up.
Hopefully this post won't get deleted as I am still on topic with regards to MIKP and the promotion campaign even Mark announced he had paid cash for.
I guess I'm bothered by Mark paying these guys $7,000 for what appears to be nothing more than a cheerleading session. I asked my question because to me if a poster says they are getting back in that implies they've been in before and I'm not sure that is the case here. Plus if one were in before, got out, and now thinks it is good to get back in what's wrong with wanting to know when they were in before and why are they excited now to get back in.
My experience on this board has been that shareholders long term and short term holders and even those that have since sold are very openly to talk about why they buy in or pull the trigger and what they are looking for before buying more. Those posts are very helpful and promote fruitful dialogue on the board.
I was hoping we'd see an awareness campaign that sought to educate people as to why MIKP is a good buy and educate people as to the potential future it has.
So far yesterday and today all I've seen is quick phrases trying to get people excited and to get new investors in but with no supporting reasons as to why they should.
I'm concerned that without something that seems credible we'll only be looking at a short term pop and then back down again.
lang, I think the point was that they were listed on the unaudited financials as assets and so much the value they were listed at. Earlier discussion has been whether or not EESO owned the formulas or did Jared. The unaudited financials would clearly indicated that they are owned by EESO.
It's beautiful weather. Long sleeves during the day and light jacket in the evening. Very seldom a need to turn on the heater.
Don't you think Mark would be signing from the rafters, putting out tweets like crazy and PRs left and right if there were revenue to report. My point is the absence of reports usually means there is nothing of value to report.
You claim I am bashing because I gave no solid numbers. Don't you get it that is the problem, Mark gives us NO SOLID NUMBERS. You write as if you believe we've been given financial numbers. So you tell us
--what are the revenues from the August concert
--what are the revenues from the comedy show
--what are the revenues from the PDiddy event
--what are the revenues from the IGT event
--where are the last fiscal year financials for SN
--where are the last fiscal year financials for copswap
--where are the reports to shareholders telling us how much we paid for SN or copswap
--where are the financials telling us how much the monthly payroll now totals
--what are we paying for the new president of the media division
--where is the projected budget for HORSE, what are we paying for the script and rights for production
--where is the production schedule for HORSE
As I said before we have a lot of Rah Rah Tweets and PRs but no substance. Lots of promises but no financial updates.
Do you honestly support all of these financials transactions (be it with cash or shares) without having any idea as to what is being spent and what revenue, potential revenue, and/or liabilities come with each product?
I want MIKP to do well, I have a lot invested here. But I also believe it is time for the blindfolds to come off. It's time for shareholders to actively know what is happening financially and what liabilities are being committed to,.
Back to .0008 again. I think it's going to be difficult to get out of triple zeros and stay out until Mark delivers with news that has numbers reporting revenues, budgets, etc. It's clear they are busy but think about it, so far all of the news (which does have promise) involves money or shares going out the door at this point and nothing that is reporting money currently coming in the door.
It would be helpful to see the business plan, goals, timelines, projections for incoming revenue and outgoing expenses.
At this point we have no idea what has been promise to who and at what price.
I'm not saying this won't be good and profitable in the long term but it does make me nervous to not have a clue as to where things are financially.
From what we've not been told it's pretty clear that the summer concert was a bust financially, the comedy act was a but financially, the PDiddy event was a bust financially, more and more people are being hired which has to be costing money or shares, IGT was likely a bust financial (at this point) despite the $8,000 in ad revenue from the website, we have no idea of the financial status of ServeNation (what were the financials for the last fiscal year and what did we as shareholders pay for the acquisition), and we have no idea of the financial status of the last acquisition (what were the financial for the last fiscal year and what did we as shareholders pay for the acquisition).
Yes there is likely promise here but doesn't it trouble anyone else that all news is really still fluff. Come on if you go to buy a car (or anything else for that matter) you are drawn in by the beauty, style, mpg, consumer guide reports BUT aren't you going to want to know the price.
We're still in the position where Mark is working with our limitless credit card and signed checks from our checkbook but we're not receiving any receipts or statements (and no that document Mark filed doesn't amount to much of anything).
I know many of you are going to jump all over me for saying anything that isn't a pump. I'm not a basher. I have a considerable stack here. I want MIKP to succeed but come on guys this is a business and shareholders are entitled to the details.
And down another 25%. MIKP needs REAL results not just more suggestions of good things to come. Unless the awareness campaign kicks in and there are some real actions with revenue to report MIKP will continue to die a slow, painful drop in share price.
Those of us in the Los Angeles area and the Pasadena (home of the Rose Bowl) area would greatly appreciate it if there were more locations in our area. I still don't understand why there has not been a big push in this area. I would think it wouldn't take much to get a lot of new stores here.
Supposedly Wowgreen had a conference call last night. Does anyone know if it happened and if it did what was said?
On January 5th in the PR Mark announced
"The trigger for this new asset base was Indiana's Got Talent (www.IndianasGotTalent.com), our 1st edition of the statewide talent competition. The website garnered over 400,000 impressions in the last six weeks. MTP Prods charged advertisers .20 per 1000 impressions and almost passively collected over $8000 in ad revenue from the website alone, and is still generating consistent activity with requests for information on 2nd edition auditions/registrations," Newbauer adds. Further details on the competition will be released in the form of an upcoming Press Conference with MTP, Indiana's NewsCenter, the Boys and Girls Club of America and IGT's 2009 winner, '77 Times.'
But I don't find anything that Press Conference ever took place.
I think it would be better for MIKP overall if Mark would reframe from making announcements (in any form) of things coming up. Given his slowness at follow through, I think, MIKP gets hurt by forward looking statements and then the silence.
Did I miss something or wasn't there supposed to be a press conference featuring IGT?
Does anyone have a clue as to why this is moving up so today?
Over on the MIKP ihub board Mark N has acknowledged several times that he gets free rent from EESO for PRs. MIKPs staff has been growing, there have been no PRs done by Mark N since before the SEC mess started yet MIKP still gets free rent. Wonder if that includes utilities as well.
The next time someone talks to Murphy it might be interesting to find out from Murphy just was the current arrangement with MIKP is regarding use of the building.
What was so good about Mark's email? It really didn't provide any updates. It did nothing more than promise once again that good things will be coming. Plus Mark this time acknowledged that he likes pinks because they are forward looking and move based on potential.
While that may be true it only helps if there is follow through on the promises and "potential".
There's supposed to be a press conference regarding IGT, IMO it's getting pretty late in the game to do a press conference now. We're a week past the event.
And there were to be events in January, if I remember correctly. But once again no announced or scheduled events. There was to be activity on HORSE and from what I can tell nothing so far.
If something doesn't start moving soon here MIKP will continue to die a slow painful death for shareholders.
How do you figure they are cash flow positive? There's nothing to indicate that. Mark keeps adding people, which means more payroll. We do not know revenue on any of the events with the exception of $8000 on website ads for IGT. There are supposed acquisitions but we don't know what and for how much.
From what I see if anything MIKP is cash flow negative at this point. You can't count on film revenue. It's a crazy business. A film could be a big financial hit or it could be a great film that is a big financial flop. Who knows.
Who is he claiming are the old PINR shareholders that are dumping shares? Some had speculated that Mark bought up a lot of PINR shares at basement prices before the majority share acquisition of PINR (remember that is how Mark described it in one of his conference calls). If he did then perhaps its Mark dumping the "PINR" shares he bought before the majority acquisition of PINR by MIKP.
Is that 8am tomorrow? And where did you get that from? Was it a tweet? I'm not challenging just wondering.
Hi Judy. If I remember correctly (which isn't always the case) didn't you indicate a little while back that you were going to try to go by EESO and see what's going on.
Just want to check to see if you'd had the chance to stop by there and if so what did you see happening. Did you get a chance to talk to anyone?
Thanks in advance for your help as our eyes and ears for those of us that live way to far away to drop in on EESO.
It was posted that Mark was going to do a press conference/release regarding IGT finals and winner as well as other bits of good news.
Given that the event was December 30th I would have thought we'd see the press conference or PR release today with the opening of the market for the new year.
Mark's continual delays for announcing what's going on and/or good news continues to hurt MIKP's share price.
IMO if Mark doesn't get moving soon with updates, news and marketing MIKP is going to be back to .0001 before long.
I for one find it troubling that Mark doesn't seem to be doing conference calls anymore.
Updates, acquisitions reports, and revenue reports are needed ASAP.
Wasn't there supposed to be action on HORSE during January? It would be nice if Mark provided a production/work schedule for HORSE.
All he twittered the last couple of days was messages trying to get people to buy tickets. No updates, no ticket sales counts, no news on the supposed acquisitions, no updates on the upcoming production of HORSE, no dates for a conference call, etc. etc. etc.
The tweets Mark did put up sounds to me like ticket sales aren't going that well and this could be another bust like the previous events. And yes I believe the previous events were a bust. If there had been real revenue, real connections, leads to future bookings we would have heard about them but we heard nothing.
The last day of 2009 is upon us and MIKP is closing out the old year totally unnoticed.
I just hope MIKP doesn't begin the new year 2010 unnoticed, but I fear that is likely to be the case.
Mark has gone DEADLY silent. And shareholders pay the price for his silence.
Interesting that there has been no updates on IGT finals which are tonight. My guess is ticket sales are slow or Mark would have put out a Tweet or PR or something to hype things.
The month of December has been really disappointing (IMO). We received lots of teasers leading one to believe things were coming and announcements were coming and then NOTHING.
Mark announces the promotion firm hired and then nothing for the rest of the month.
It has been forever since a conference call (experience with other pinkies would signal it's not a good sign).
If Mark doesn't start producing soon and putting out financials, updates on acquisitions, updates on HORSE production, updates on future concerts and events this stock will be dead in the water pretty soon.
Has anyone even talked to Mark in the last couple of weeks?
