ProTek Capital Inc (PRPM)

[Kool Aid Man]

I may be wrong but seem to recall someone saying something like Eddie had promised Barry that the acquisition of SMG would greatly benefit his clients and/or charitable causes they either ran or supported. Instead, Eddie pissed them all off by telling them that Barry had obligated them to endorse and promote his (Eddie's) hodge-podge assortment of recycled sports collectibles, energy drinks, health & wellness junk etc. According to his PR's

The overall plan is to integrate Superstar Management Group, Inc, and its staff into several locations that are already occupied by ProTek Inc, and several of its strategic partners. The key is to achieve a national presence in key markets and territories. The overall company objectives is combine the marketing powers of celebrities and athletes to create exposure and awareness to a host of products and services that ProTek currently has, and future developments.

Presumably this "national marketing" campaign involved pedding junk via Eddie's repeatedly failed Starfest Direct multi-level marketing scheme utilizing the progressive rewards/ "Enterprise Software System" he apparently stole from the bankrupt International Galleries Inc pyramid scheme he was a distributor for back in 2005.

I suspect Barry will happily give his side of the story. The feeling I got was that Bary's clients wanted nothing to do with Eddie. And since SMG had supposedly been "acquired" Barry was stuck
