I agree, its [kinda hard] for Bourque Industries [to close a deal] for a purchase order [when buyers read] that the company has an established record of not communicating with its shareholders.
You and ATL can verbally tell a customer that "all is good" and Bourque Industries has the ability to deliver on you order, just sign here with a deposit.
Its well knowned throughout recorded history that sales people will say anything to get a sale, meaning they by design don't want to know actual details of the company to deliver.
Here for Bourque Industries its specific on the manufacturing capacity.
Nowhere on the company web site, and nowhere in any updates or new releases has this company identified what manufacturing ability they have, only an output of a small shop.
So 'bigdog/1 look in the mirror and ask yourself if you know of Bourque Industries manufacturing presents, internal outside the Drexel site and external with outside manufactures already having an established plant of size with employees, equipment and expertise in a foundry setting.
The shareholders have not a clue of actual ability to deliver orders now limited by the Drexel site.
If you do know something, and its great "all is good" news, then why is that internal company information not released to the shareholders and market, but only to a potential customer ?
Perhaps all you can say is "don't worry, all is good" to close a deal for a purchase order.
The reason you and ATL may failed to get a PO from a customers only has the customer get verification that they need to back off is when that no communication of actual facts they get from Bourque Industries is echoed on this board by shareholders also not getting facts.
There are many potential customer out there that would have contacted Bourque Industries directly if they obtained from the company web site the facts stating ability to deliver.
So far we can not delivered beyond a small shop.
If you know thats not true, then why are the shareholders, the market and potential customers not informed.
Lets see if you can walk you talk to answer questions on this board.
That is without this board signing a NDA.
Also, does John Bourque think that the minority shareholders having lost up to 99% of their investment in BORK will accept with open arms and happy hearts, the request to "think positive thoughts" empty of facts ?
What does the request for shareholders to stop asking for company status, and replace it with thinking positive thoughts void of facts really mean ?
To ask not why thoughts should be positive, but only to accept the unknowned as positive ?
Why ?
