Have you ever thought...
Where are most of you from? It seems that most here know that the Coke headquarters is in Atlanta.
Yes, the PR did say the Atlanta bottling company or what ever...
Have you ever thought that this could be a marketing test bed for the corporation?? If the MMC bit
makes a blip in the Coke sales in Atlanta, do you think that Coke could make it a national thing?? I
used to live near Atlanta and Coke rules the roost when it comes to soft drinks, well, the south if you
want to get a little more in depth. The Atlanta market is saturated when it comes to sales, they will try
anything for someone to buy that extra 12 pack of Coke. The 2000 superbowl will be in Atlanta and
so will MMC. The surrounding areas, which ranges from 3-5 million people will all ask themselves
"What is MMC" and look it over, if they like, the buy, if they don't the throw away. But at least they have
seen it.
How can you argue that this is not large for a small company trying to establish something like MMC.
Everyone here must drink Pepsi or something. I have seen things like this from Coke before and it is
sometimes regional, but it can only mean exposure and income for the company. Give this about a
month and i believe that we will begin to see what we have all be waiting for.
There are a lot of good things happening with this company and if you want to sit here a disect it, go
right ahead, but why don't you just go back and read some of the PRs from about a month ago. Didn't
they add a board member that was big in charities? I believe they did, she seems to be using her
connections and getting these charities on her side (or I should say our side). This is a good thing.
No, this is not going to be quick, but it will benefit the true longs. I'm in all the way to the top.
Why does everyone here sound like a short term investor?? Everyone acts like a long but talks like a
short. get a grip folks.
Sorry for the long post, gets irritating when reading all this crap.
JMHO. Go TSIG |
