Following Pike being cast out of Xyience, he founded Mainstream Ventures, Inc. Though Pike was at all times the control person for Mainstream, he purportedly had his girlfriend, Lindsey Pinapfel, actually file to establish the company. Likewise, Pike had Pinapfel found Global Business Marketing, Inc., Positive Search Results, Inc., Positive Searches, Inc., and Internet Business Group.com, Inc. Pike appeared at all times to be the control person for each of these companies, and other than Global Business Marketing, Pike purportedly hand-picked and appointed each member of the board of directors (if the company actually had such a board). Other than Global, none of Pikes companies ever have shareholder meetings or hold elections as required by state law or formal board meetings. These companies apparently were founded as corporations merely so Pike could sell stock, but not one of them, other than Global (perhaps), ever followed the statutorily-required corporate forms. Why? Because they're NOT CORPORATIONS!!!
