We’re a manufacturer and distributor with over 60 of our own products (see http://wizind.com). In addition we own a patented product exposure system called SampleRewards that powers our 100 plus web sites. The web sites provide a platform to bring awareness to new inventions and products to the news media, retailers and consumers. In addition, the system provides education and resources for new product inventors and manufacturers. We also produce the Product News Channel new product news video segments along with two Internet TV / broadband shows: called Community News Rewards and our newest TV / broadband show and trade organization called "The Great American Motorcyle Show".
Our patented technology (see white paper ) provides a plethora of crucial elements to guide new products to market. The system, its resources and functions are provided for free to manufacturers with new products. The manufacturers can upload their products to the system along with any available news, sales, marketing and PR assets. Once the product and the materials are loaded the system begins to distribute the product information across to the news media, our existing retailers and prospective retailers. If a manufacturer does not have all of the necessary sales, marketing and PR assets we provide a host of very inexpensive services to aid in building the essential materials. We accept inventory and partial payment for services if needed. Our goal is to be well armed with sales, marketing, news and PR assets in order to penetrate the media and the markets. We provide relatively endless mentoring and support and proven methods of product exposure and retail penetration.
The system is very intuitive and easy to use. We ask that the manufacturers study and utilize the system in order to better understand the fundamentals of product exposure and sales along with our unique patented exposure and sales methods. Our unique consumer referral system allows consumers to participate in the product exposure and retailer awareness of a product by enabling consumers to get free products when they alert us of a retailer that stocks a product. The consumer gets a free product upon a successful referral and wholesale quantity order from a referred retailer. This method launched and continues to power our own 60 plus products and many of the products on our system.
The only real requirement to using the system is that the manufacturer provide at least $200.00 in wholesale value of each item loaded into the system. These samples are used to provide requesting qualified retailers with samples for their product purchase evaluation and to qualified press and media for editorial and news coverage of the product. We use the necessary sales and marketing materials along with crucial PR and video assets to expose the product and the inventor's production story to the news media.
There are no exclusive agreements, contracts or other binding elements in dealing with us or the use of the system. It is free and open and controlled by the product owner. The objective is to produce sales through the various markets by way of news and grassroots product exposure. We act as a non-exclusive distributor making a 10% margin on the product distribution sales that we make to retailers the manufacturer authorizes or allows us to sale to. We do not disrupt or step on any other sales channels or relationships with other representatives or distributors that the manufacturer has in place. We simply enhance and add power to the manufacturers sales efforts. In fact, we are an asset and tool for the other parties involved in the success of the product. Our purpose is to be a platform that generates and provides additional exposure for the product. This effort is strengthened by the many other diverse products in the system, whereas one product empowers the next while bringing more exposure and strength to the overall system.
Please feel free to contact us if you need additional information. In addition, please examine and study our system and the overall placement we have on the Internet and in the various markets we touch.
The Product News Channel provides retailers, national network and local news departments with new product news interviews, b-roll and product announcement media. We produce news videos that are made available to TV and Internet news augmenters nationwide. These new product news stories come in "news concentric packages" for TV, Internet and trade show broadcast. In addition the news feeds we produce contain product b-roll and scripting for broadcaster customization. For print or web media, our print resources are also available and can be syndicated or reproduced for manufacturers/brand-owners use.
Product News Channel was born from a need identified by product manufacturer and distributor Billy Carmen (Billy is CEO and founder of Wizard Industries and has created over 60 products) . Billy began producing new and news production and distribution technology in 1999 producing and reporting new product news stories for Wizard Industries and the Product News Channel, Billy then became the new products/trade show reporter for many trade shows across the USA. As a spokesman for the new products industry, Billy has produced over 500 product news videos and podcasts on Product News Channel, Inside The Invention, Small Brand Nation and many other web sites.
Billy is also the Publisher and editor for the Product News Journal Magazine that is printed each month and distributed to retailers, manufacturers, consumers and new product innovators nationwide.
Products and product video featured on Product News Channel has appeared on CNBC, CNN, The Discovery Channel, HGTV, DIY Network, Animal Planet, Lifetime Television and many other news and TV shows and countless web sites.
While pioneering new product news stories online and the Product News Channel, Billy has also lead the way for hundreds of other companies and innovators to bring the fascinating stories of new products and innovations to a news audience.
In an interviews for the SuperZoo Pet Trade Show and at the National Safety Council Trade Show, Billy said, "Product news is one of the most important, most powerful and most effective exposure elements to growing a new brand. In today’s video hungry society news about a new product and the human element stories about how the product and its creator have emerged is a vital component to product success."
Billy continued, "There are new products and innovators appearing in the news in many markets each day, but most do not have a source of good news footage or edited packages to make their segments more professional and more visual. Product News Channel provides TV and Internet video news producers and reporters that crucial element of news story communication. As an experienced news producer, I know what makes a good news story and how to package the tools to give news media distributors what they need to deliver effective local, national or online news."
Stretching the boundaries of product marketing and distribution Wizard Industries, Inc. utilizes their patented marketing and distribution technology and infrastructure to launch a new brand called CoBrandia through a new portal called SmallBrandNation.com
Since most new products/brands begin with single products they have a very hard if not impossible time of getting into the media, retail and in front of customers. SmallBrandNation.com and the new CoBrandia brand matches synergies between products and markets and provides the education, mentoring, support services, exposure infrastructure and broadcast networks, distribution channels, product sales and fulfillment facilitation, along with manufacturing alliances.
Product News Journal is an exciting and informative magazine for new products and small brand manufacturers. Published each month, Product News Journal explores many aspects of new products and how new ideas make their way into consumer and retailers hands.
