OK.. breath Joey68. Breath. Im going to attempt to keep this short. Those who know my posts know they can get long.
1. Right now..look at any product in your house. Actually, the most common item we all own would be an iPhone. Go get your beloved iPhone for this demonstration. Do you honestly think Apple, located at 1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino, California, built that iPhone? If you do youre oblivious. Do you think that iPhone case your holding.. the thing holding the product... is made at 1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino, California?
The battery is made in South Korea, the camera is made in Japan, the gyroscope is made in Switzerland... shall I go on?
2. Hop in your car and go to any liquor store. Go up to the sales guy and ask him, "Hey, im looking for your best wine.. but i just want the wine... no bottle". If he doesnt slap you, hes going to at least laugh in your face.
Do you, in all honesty, this Christie Brinkley or her company is going to actually PRODUCE the wine bottles???????????????????
Unless im mistaken, Christie Brinkley doesnt have a degree in glassblowing. Last time I checked, the MAJORITY of ALL companies do not produce the container which holds their product.
Now lets get to the nitty gritty..
I personally just got off the phone with PEPSI and spent 10 minutes on the phone with a manager. I knew the question would sound stupid, but i wanted to sound like the two posters on the other board in order to see how their comments would hold up in real life.
I asked the PEPSI manager, "So, PEPSI manufacturers their own cans right?"
He chuckled and said, "No. BALL Corporation manufactures the cans for us".
I then asked, "So PEPSI doesnt make their own cans??"
He responded with, "No, again, most companies which product a product, whether food related or not do NOT have any hands-on in the manufacturing of the case, box, can, or bottle".
DUH! Are these two guys from the other board trying to scare us?? Do they even know who Ball Corporation? Go on your stock charts are type in BLL.
THATS THEM! With a share price of $75 . BALL doesnt MAKE the liquid drink called 'PEPSI'!!!!! DUH!!!!
The containers are outsourced! This is how companies save money! Do you have any clue how expensive it would be for Bellissima to MAKE the wine bottles? Its obsurd! Its ridiculous! Its juvenile!
Conclusion..
IGOSODAMNHAM and ShowMeTheMoney2day tried (and failed) to make it seem like ICNB is 'only' a producer of bottles. What they fail to realize is their intended purpose backfired and has only strengthened ICNB, Bellissima, the share price, and the investors.
1. Bellissima would be bankrupt if they attempted to make their own bottles.
2. Bellissima is saving millions of dollars in production costs by working with ICNB. This money goes back into the company and back into the shareholders pocket.
3. Owning such a large percentage in ICNB is genius from a marketing, business, legal and investment perspective! Bellissima has direct access to ICNB.
4. CEO Richard DeCicco, a 40-year industry veteran, stated, "I'm thrilled to bring this brand to market with Christie. YOU THINK CHRISTIE WAS GOING TO DO THIS ON HER OWN?
And the best for last...
BALL, the can maker for PEPSI went public back in 1970's. Have you seen the chart? Its gone up up up in share price from its initial day on the NYSE to today! You have to start small!
Here is BALL's stock price:
BEH! look at that! BALL isnt PEPSI! BALL isnt the 'drink'! Theyre 'JUST' a bottling company! Yet theyre worth $14 BILLION DOLLARS!!!!
Imagine how BRILLIANT it is that ICNB is working with Christie Brinkley. Its a symbiotic relationship. Not only is ICNB helping Christie, Christie is helping ICNB ! Imagine other companies discovering ICNB is working with her. They'll want to work with ICNB as well. We arent just invested in ICNB. We're invested in the name, the product, the image of Christie Brinkley and her wine.
Although these naysayers attempted to bash ICNB, the only thing they did was prove how big this can, and will, get! Imagine being an early investor in BLL. You would be a millionaire today! 100 times over! We arent just invested in 'wine'. This is much much bigger.
And yes, this ended up being a long post, but it had to be. I take all my investments extremely serious. And although this entire post wont stop them from responding negatively, we now all know how powerful this union between ICNB and Bellissima is becoming.
Will ICNB have more red days? DUH! BLL has had THOUSANDS of red days!
Feel free to share this on iFlub. Edit it accordingly.
Note for the wise:
When I type using 'CAPITAL LETTERS'.. im not really mad or angry. I could care less what naysayers say about stocks. ICNB is going up regardless of what they say. I use them for dramatics. BEHHH! < dramatic!
