CEOLIVE Executive Interview | Berge Abajian, CEO of Bergio International (BRGO)
This entry was posted by rusty on April 30, 2013 at 12:49 pm
Huge money in Dubai....
I did ask SHOPNBC when they would start promotion Bergio the other day, they responded today with:
We typically promote the new brand the day before or the day of the launch. Hope this helps!
Because that is what the PR said today....
Bergio International, Inc. (OTCQB: BRGO) ("Bergio" or the "Company") gives their update on their recent financial activities.
As of recently Bergio retained the services of a private investment banker, Legend Securities Inc., to assist the company in both obtaining a credit line and exposing us to hundreds of lenders. We are seeking to obtain a credit line between the amount of $750,000 to $1 million. Additionally, Columbia bank has gone through the preliminary stages of granting Bergio a credit line and wish to proceed further. Once the paperwork has been signed and finalized, the amount will be disclosed. The company will be filing the needed opinion with the DTCC by May 6th, 2013 in order to release the chill on stock issuance.
Berge Abajian, CEO of Bergio Int'l, states, "We are determined to acquire the credit lines so that we are able to end the dilution, brought upon by small funding with higher discounts. I understand the concerns of our shareholders but it is quite difficult to push to the next level without proper financing. To prepare for the ShopNBC launch, Bergio incurred a large expense related to the design and modification of pieces to fit the ShopNBC demographic. One must also consider the usual quarterly professional fees, in addition to the fees related to the DTCC chill."
He added, "I feel that that the situation is under control. I would like to personally thank our shareholders for their support. Adding new shareholders in the past few months seemed to remedy the situation and keep the stock stable." He also added, "Our shareholders have been doing an incredible job with spreading the news of ShopNBC launch on May 7th, 2013. It looks like it will be successful."
He continues, "Concerning the chill, I would like to inform our shareholders that we were only chilled on stock issuance, not trading. I am looking forward to having the chill lifted one month after filing the opinion. In the next few weeks, we will release our 1Q results. As previously stated, due to the amount of current projects we may have a slow start, but once our plans come together the future looks bright."

I think this must be the firm they are working with?

BRGO after a great move forward on solid volume, the company needs some comsolidation. No telling how high this one might go, if it is a HIT on NBC then the sky is the limit, good luck to the longs here.

Nice read
http://www.nationaljeweler.com/nj/fashion/a/~30823-Bergio-to-begin-selling-jewelry
Fairfield, N.J.--Bergio International Inc. has crafted a lower-priced line that ShopNBC will sell, making it the latest jewelry brand to begin selling on-air and online through a partnership with a home shopping network.
The Bergio line for ShopNBC will debut on the network on May 7.
I love that this will not be just available for the 1 hour, anyone can go online and place an order in the weeks/months to follow
I'm thinking you should post it BlackOPs :)
Heard back about VVTV tagging BRGO In PR ...
Should I post or just sit on it .... Hmmm
I can tell you both Trapper and I both have contacts at NDEP that have been very forthright when we have asked. We both have the same answer to this point, nothing has been submitted. They have to submit 2 weeks prior to.
As soon as either one of us hears something different I wouldn't hesitate to share with others.
Until I know they are moving forward with reopening I am not buying anything.

ShopNBC starting to load the line for May 7
Awesome find... super sleuth work!
http://www.shopnbc.com/onair/programguide/showlisting.aspx?showid=14993031&showhostname=HEATHER+HALL
They must still be loading the line, hence the price points not indicated. Great pricing, affordable...
No kidding! I have searched all over that page and no luck.
How did you find? I have tried using Bergio as a search and can't find anything? Great info!
Care to share why you think the Mega Deal is with VVTV?
Great stuff! Can't wait to see how it all plays out..
I meant to ask, thoughts on what the blank check on the business status might mean?
Thanks so much for your response! Much to look forward to.
Krony, looking at old charts this was over $1.00 back in 09, I wondered how long you have been here... thoughts on where the price could get to?
I would think that when they announce the day after May 7 that they sold out of everything it will be off like a rocket...and have many more time slots.
For those that didn't realize, you can "Watch us Live" if you look at the top right on the screen.. you don't even need to find it on cable, just go on that link.
http://www.shopnbc.com/onair/Default.aspx?view=watchuslive&cm_re=GN-_-ONAIR-_-WATCHUSLIVE
Both state Eastern, I checked that? Perhaps the ShopNBC is changing?
Notice PR said 7:00 pm but ShopNBC states 6:00 pm, I hope they clear that up?
Within the past several months, the company has been working with multichannel electronic retailer ShopNBC (www.shopnbc.com). The deal has been finalized and Bergio will premiere on ShopNBC on May 7th, 2013 at 7pm EDT. CEO Berge Abajian will personally be on the air to present the brand to viewers. It is of utmost importance that our shareholders and friends encourage as many people as possible to tune in for a successful launch.

I did make a suggestion to them via the website that they should update under News/Buzz and News/Event so those that want to research have up to the minute information.
And VVTV be required to do a tremendous amount of DD before they partner with anyone, they didn't sign on BRGO until they knew they could produce the goods and everything looked good for the long haul. They aren't looking to have Bergio on 1 time for 1 hour, this must be a long range commitment.
Their reputation is at stake, hence the timeline to set everything up.
Their partner VVTV is trading over $4 share with many inside purchases in the last few months
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/it?s=VVTV+Insider+Transactions
I followed over to the VVTV insider buys, interesting.
BRGO didn't get a prime spot at 6:00 PM without something bigger going on. I am sure more time slots will be announced after that debut. That is a good time slot, it was start 3:00 pm pacific/6:00 Eastern.
Lots of insider buys..
http://www.secform4.com/insider-trading/870826.htm
will bode well for BRGO
I liked this:
We continually introduce new products that are easily accessible to customers via our television, online and mobile platforms. Inventory sources include manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and importers. We intend to continue to develop and promote private label merchandise, which generally have higher margins than branded merchandise, across multiple product categories.
Not buying until I hear they are open again....
As always, very appreciated.
Heard from NDEP again today, they have not filed to reopen as of yet. They have to give them them 2 weeks notice.
Thank you..
Nice...
Hmmm... I'll follow up with my NDEP contact this week.. see if he responds with anything. Thanks for the update.
Have you averaged down TJ? I will this week.
