POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

Viral marketing through SampleRewards.com allows consumers to get a manufacturer's product up onto store shelves

VAN NUYS, CALIFORNIA: Tired of being told what products you should be using? Overwhelmed by conflicting promotional messages? Then harness your buying clout by joining SAMPLEREWARDS.COM, an easy-to-use system that empowers you, the consumer, to take control of your local retailer's inventory.

SampleRewards.com is an innovative guerilla marketing system that encourages its users to refer goods from an online catalog of unique products to brick-and-mortar retailers. In return for a job well done, these users are rewarded with free merchandise from the SampleRewards.com catalog.

"SampleRewards.com uses a proprietary consumer-driven system that's easy to navigate," says Billy Carmen, CEO SampleRewards.com. "While our site will never replace the use of traditional sales reps, it will make it easy for manufacturers who lack the marketing muscle to get their products up onto store shelves and for consumers to enjoy those very products."

At SampleRewards.com, users can browse over 20 categories worth of merchandise, ranging from automotive parts to sporting goods to health and beauty supplies. When they find a product they like-and think should be available at their local retailer's-they supply the contact information for that merchant and… that's it! SampleRewards.com does the rest. When the merchant places an order for that product, the consumer-turned-rep is rewarded with a free sample of the product from the SampleRewards.com site. Now consumers can get what they want, not just what's available at their local store.

"It's as if the manufacturers have an army of reps, but reps who are actually customers that buy and believe in the products," says Carmen. "We've penetrated thousands of otherwise inaccessible retail stores and given away a lot of very unique products in the process."

Carmen, who also distributes products to thousands of retailers through his Wizard Industries, Inc. has used the Sample Rewards referral system to get products placed into stores. Wizard Industries has been around since 1999 and to this day does not have any sales people. "Wizard products have gotten into most all of its retailers through the help of consumers that refer products," says Carmen. "We would not be in business today without the help of enthusiastic consumers who push us along."

SampleRewards.com is becoming a very powerful "Consumer to Business" guerilla marketing system. Log onto www.SampleRewards.com to setup your consumer account and learn what this unique, patent-pending system can offer.
