Even with the last two PR's, there has been no significant movement, whats it gonna take to move this b*tch?
Any hope for this POS?
I'm so disgusted with this stock that I'm at the point that I would take a RS right now, or a bankruptcy! Anyone got any Advil?
Well happy moderators day!
Can someone with more pull than I send an idea to JF? He never responds to my emails. Its a very simple idea. Myspace.com just started on demand with Fox. GFX should try to put their streaming video channel on myspace too.... check out fox's http://www.myspace.com/fox
What do you guys think?
Still no PR? What is with this company? JF has no clue...
Yesterday's rebound will continue today, supported by a late afternoon PR.
Early PR today could do wonders....
Well xanadu, what is your forecast? I see it two ways, Reverse Split or Bankruptcy.
New Survey: How long until we reverse split?
IMO it would be best before Christmas! What do you all think?
This stock really p*sses me off. If we go any lower a RS is our only hope. I say do it now and get the pain over with.
Banner ad confirmed at www.cheaptickets.com
When is our next quarterly report?
Wow. Finding ads everywhere now! Thats a good sign.
New ad found at http://www.imdb.com
GZFX ad on www.madblast.com
Xanadu: I forwarded the post to Chip. Good suggestion.
No, I haven't asked CC about GZFX. To be honest, they could care less about what their employees think anyways. They care about money and getting more of it. IMO GZFX is insignificant in their eyes, or at least not significant enough to push for sales. If the partnership is to work, its gonna have to be GZFX pushing for the suggestions in my last post. GZFX will have to spend more money on the partnership, creating bigger and better displays and send them to CC. CC will just let the boxes collect dust otherwise--afterall they have warranties to sell. Again, I know cause I've been there.
I don't work at CC anymore, but I can let you know how things work there (or at least how they did in my store).
New products come onto the shelves every day. Sometimes, depending on the value of the product, the employees take product exams (training). The manangement will focus on the product for a short time until a new product comes out. Then they rarely revisit that product.
CC employees also rarely have any incentive programs to sell certain products, unless that incentive comes from the company itself (ie. CC doesn't give the employees anything, GZFX would have to).
It's important to remember that your dealing with retail here, and there is no longer any commissions for the employees. Your typically dealing with a bunch of kids who could give two shits about their jobs or the products in the stores.
Gameznflix boxes are shelf fillers which have a high PMI. They are cheap to keep on the shelves and the company gets a decent cut of money for each box they sell. But with so many products on the CC shelves and most of the revenue coming from television and tv accessories & warranties, the gameznflix products collect dust much like the Napster and MusicNow cards because they are forgotten about.
IMO if this relationship is to work there are two ways to go about it:
1. Create a period, before Christmas, which gives these gzfx boxes out for free with an instant rebate. People will take them home if it is free AND if they don't have to worry about filling out stupid receipts to receive their money back. This would also have to come with a no strings attached trial for a period no less than one month (2 week period IMO sucks).
AND/OR
2. GIVE THE CC EMPLOYEES A REASON TO SELL THE GAMEZNFLIX PRODUCT. If GZFX comes up with an incentive program and gives the top 3 selling associates of GZFX (PER STORE) a monetary prize, more boxes will go out the door. I KNOW BECAUSE I'VE BEEN THERE. Monetary incentives WORK!
Employees should also be offered the service at a discounted price. If you treat the employees well, they are more apt to speak highly of your product to customers. Again, I KNOW BECAUSE I'VE BEEN THERE. XM gave us free equipment and service when I worked there, guess who sold more XM than Sirius? Guess who still subscribes to XM even after he no longer works for CC? This is just one example of how free or discounted services can go a long way.
I hope this answers your questions. IMO this is the only way to profit from the CCity deal. Just shelving them does nothing, more must be done.
JMHO......GLTA
Thanks for the reply, that makes perfect sense.
Gameznflix ads have bombarded myspace.com for the last few days, however it doesn't reflect higher traffic on the alexa ratings. Any guesses why not?
Totally agree. I'm tired of hearing nothing about this POS. Management obviously doesn't care about their investors.
!!Important new competiton!!
to our direct download business....
http://www.clickstarinc.com/
will soon be www.clickstar.net
Why don't we advertise on Google?
Google has the highest volume of visitors on the net. Some 3 million per day. When you type in Game rentals or Movie rentals, Gameznflix is not even on the list. Blockbuster, Netflix, and even Intelliflix is on the list, but no Gameznflix. Why haven't we fixed this issue yet???
Has anyone even heard of these websites until now? Why waste time on these fly by night companies. We should be going for the big dogs. Something everyone visits everyday.....weatherchannel, cnn, msnbc, hotmail, google, etc....
What good are these current companies actually doing for business? If you're gonna aim, aim high.
I'd rather see one ad on yahoo than 5 ads on a site no one ever visits. Hell, I get more traffic on myspace.
It's been too long, we need news soon. Come on JF, pull through.
My store pulled gameznflix display.
We are a test store, so we had the old display
and boxes. I think they are giving us the new
boxes or cards. Maybe something we'll test out for
the rest of the company. Maybe one out at a time
boxes? I'll let you know what comes in and if
its anything exciting.
It's been over a month. I would hope so. We all know how JF likes weekend PR's
My portfolio is waterlogged with tears from this sad PPS. Common JF, give us something!
where on gamestop? didn't see any on cstv either.
unless i'm blind. lol.
I still don't understand!
WHERE ARE THE BANNER ADS?!!!
What is the wait for?
Banner ads = traffic
traffic = subs
subs = money
money = profit
profit = higher pps for your investors!
What the H*ll is the hold up?! I just don't understand. What do these people do all day?
Question? Where is our advertising?
How is it that we are a company who's base is ONLINE and we still haven't seen any online advertising?!
How hard is it to get a banner link onto a website? If they were smart they would strike a deal with myspace.com or facebook.com before it's too late. JMHO

Sorry, I meant anger and sarchasm from JF and Chip
I hear a lot of anger and sarchasm, anyone else?
Hey--maybe Netflix will buy us out and we can actually get some good shares that are worth something!
you see any elearning videos for gfx yet? i haven't but we probably will with the rollout you think?
I am a CC employee too. I will comment on those numbers. I am a pilot store and have been tracking this product since it hit our shelves. During Christmas season we sold a lot of subs: reason? We packaged them in with the xbox 360s that went out. We also packaged them into the computer packages.
Since that time GZFX announced the rollout with CC. To be honest, my store can expect to sell less than 5 subs a month given this is not Christmas season. Granted I am in a small market and I'm sure other stores sell more, but 5 is about the absolute max for our location.
I think partnering with CC is great, but I believe the only way this company will survive is if it floods the internet market with banners. This is probably the most cost effective means of advertising and most effective---seeing as the product relies on the internet. CC right now owns the electronic retail market when it comes to internet. You see more CC ads than BB--just pay attention when you surf! Gzfx needs to take its advertising to the same level and IMO it will prosper.
Don't believe me? Call any store and ask any "infield" associate how many their store sells a week, they'll tell you too.
JMO of course.
Whats going on? Any news after the bell?
Investor webcast?
Anyone think JF will have another investor webcast anytime soon?
