ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!
I called our Public Relations contact at Triangle Broadcasting, Mr. Roger Asquith.
Roger said that he was extremely busy, and could he call me back. Well, TEN
MINUTES later, Mr. Dick Weiner calls me on my cell phone, and leaves me a
message. Little ol' me! Well, I called Dick back and he said that he could answer
any questions in regards to the business plans. I first asked when we will see a
news release on the AuctionsTelevision.com, and he said TOMMORROW! I
asked Dick about the sponsors, and he said a news release regarding the
sponsors would be out in MID JULY. I asked about which sponsors, thinking what
the heck, it is worth a shot. I stated I heard Taco Bell, IBM, Hewlett Packard, and
KFC. Dick paused, and then talked about how KFC was a sponsor on their show
they did a year ago in Hawaii, and said the sponsors mentioned are very
"interesting". Dick chuckled, and stated that he could not release that information,
but people would easily recognize the companies commercial slogans, that is
how popular they are. Also, when he was speaking, he did emphasize the ties
ALREADY exist, but names could not be mentioned. When the news release
comes out in mid July on the sponsors, it will be a JOINT NEWS RELEASE with
the sponsors! Dick VERIFIED that BingoTelevision.com is definitely on schedule
for practice rounds on the internet for July 1, and that the schedule date for the
official rounds for BingoTelevision.com is also on date for August 2, on TV.
AuctionsTelevision.com as previously mentioned, is also on schedule for practice
on August 2, on the internet, where people can view the products, and than the
official AuctionsTelevision.com is also on schedule for October.
Also, one last thing, I did ask Dick about the sponsors having their own
commercials or will Triangle Broadcasting do them. Dick stated that for right now,
the sponsors would take care of their own commercials, but they have their own
studio in Palm Springs where they could broadcast their own.
Renee, and I forgot his last name is supposed to call me back, and that is who will
answer all the stock questions. I will ask him about the float, and any price
projections.
Oh, did I leave this out... Dick expects Bingo to be huge!
I'll tell you what you guys, after speaking to the company the last two days, I feel so
confident we have a winner!
Talk to you later!
