Ballerz Nutrition, Inc.

Nutritional Supplement Retailer
July 2009 – May 2010

Ballerz Nutrition, a division of Ballerz, Inc. was created after Christopher experienced alot of difficulty obtaining many of the supplements he enjoyed. He also spotted an opportunity in the supplement industry that was untapped by any current company. Ballerz Nutrition offers customized advice and recommendation for individuals based on multiple factors, in addition to having a very customer-centric focus. Ballerz Nutrition is one of the few nutritional retailers to provide a permanent discount and priority to our Civil Service workers.

Ballerz Nutrition also launched a short lived nutrition consulting service for Central Florida, which was canceled after further researching Florida’s laws concerning such activity.

Ballerz, Inc. started with two founders, not including Christopher, however as things began to slowly roll along, the other founders felt it was not moving fast enough, and left the company shortly after in February 2010.

Again flying solo, Christopher decided to look at his entire entrepreneurial portfolio and to reduce costs he began to condense many of his existing companies into DBA’s of Ballerz. This in effect began, to form a type of holdings company.

Contiga Broadcasting Corporation

Internet Broadcasting Company
March 2005 – February 2010

Contiga Broadcasting was the spin-off of Contiga Digital Entertainment, Inc.  CBC faced a difficult future as there were many shakeups within management, and was the first time Christopher took on someone as a partner in a company who wasn’t a direct family member. CBC gained popularity quickly, reaching about 5 million U.S. consumers per month, and a strong reputation in the convention industry.

CBC maintained several brands over its existence, some with more impact on the industry than others. Beyond Killer Rock Radio, CBC also operated a music video streaming website in 2007.

The site’s name was Globe Shocker, and it quickly grew to 15 million visitors over two years. The site offered the highest-quality streaming music videos with minimal advertising and a practical instant-on response when users wanted to watch the video. Globe Shocker signed promotional agreements with AOL and Windows Media during its time online.

In 2008, the company added 6 more radio stations as a concept of local-oriented internet radio. While the market test was an instant hit, CBC didn’t have the staff to sustain the operations within quality guidelines. The brands were:

• Tranced Logic Orlando
• Felsen X Orlando
• Aggression Orlando
• Vapor Orlando
• Electronic Fusion Orlando
• ZenTropica

The company continuously adapted to market changes, and kept ahead of the curve on technology, working with mobile companies to improve data networks to adopting the latest streaming technologies.

CBC’s operations were eventually halted in August 2009 after Christopher encountered some serious personal issues. Then in late February  2010, the company’s assets were dispersed to Ballerz Inc.

However, the company has not been completely killed. The company remains in dormancy and is slated to return with a new plan on operations. CBC was one of the most influential companies Christopher has built, and the plans it is developing, will continue down that path for years to come.

Total Revenue: $56,000.00

Contiga Digital Entertainment, Inc.

Contiga Digital Entertainment, Inc. was a DBA of Contiga Corporation. During the three years of operation, it built up “Killer Rock Radio”, which became one of the top rock-based internet radio stations to hit the internet. While its revenue wasn’t stellar, the goal of developing a popular internet radio station was made. As internet broadcasting moved more into a career than a hobby for Christopher, Contiga Digital Entertainment was spun off as Contiga Broadcasting Corporation.

Total Revenue: $39,000.00
