The Pitch Network
The Pitch Network is seeking people with new product ideas or suggestions on how to improve existing ones.
Do you have a product that has or has not been patented? Don’t worry, we can help you develop your product at any stage.
If our team of business executives, marketers, and entrepreneurs thinks that your product has potential, the Pitch Network will contact you to discuss the possibility of a joint effort to develop your product.
We are currently in the production phase of an integrated television/Internet series, PITCH TV (Pitch it TV).
The creators of Pitch TV intend to produce a documentary-style reality television series chronicling the contest experience from the selection of the finalists through the entire television production process to public exhibition.
Contestants submit their ideas, concepts, and prototypes. After rounds of scoring and judging, the winners are announced. The Grand Prize is to have the winning ideas produced, developed and released to the market.
Winners of the contest could be rewarded with contracts or money.
Don’t be left out of the network.
Registration is free.
Confidentiality is guaranteed.

Another success story
Workout guru Richard Simmons was a formerly overweight kid who lost more than 100 pounds (45 kilograms) and decided to use his success to cheerlead the rest of the country into its skinny jeans.
In the mid-1980s, he capitalized on the idea that many big-boned Americans were sick of seeing waiflike models in their exercise videos and were tired of trying to keep up with grueling workout regimens. So Simmons donned his signature tank top and short shorts, surrounded himself with a group of zaftig exercisers and created a program that was both easy to follow and featured songs grandma could dance to.
He sweated his way straight to infomercial gold, selling more than 20 million copies of his workout videos

Another Hall of Famer .................
You've got to love the story line of the Magic Bullet infomercial: A couple, Mick and Mimi, invite a few friends over for a party.
The next morning, they all gather in the kitchen (which looks suspiciously like a television studio) for breakfast. Their friend Berman staggers in hungover, wearing last night's clothes. A frumpy woman in a housedress named Hazel shuffles in with a cigarette dangling from her mouth.
Mick and Mimi are surprisingly perky, considering the state of their guests. They proceed to entertain their friends with the wonders of a tiny, bullet-shaped food processor called the Magic Bullet.

While the guests look on in utter amazement and delight, the Magic Bullet whips smoothies, grinds coffee, mixes muffins and scrambles omelets -- and that's just the appetizer.
Every dish is perfectly prepared in just 10 seconds or less. Sounds too good to be true, but millions bought the message.
The $60 Magic Bullet brought in nearly a quarter of a billion dollars in sales in just over a year.
The infomercial has been translated into dozens of languages and has been sold in 60 different countries
FOUR MILLION SOLD - not bad
Who hasn't grappled with the baffling question of how to keep warm while watching TV, yet still keep one's hands free to man the remote?
Thank goodness an oversized fleece blanket with sleeves came along in 2008 to solve this perplexing problem. (Actually, another company put out a similar product called the Slanket in 1998, but it never garnered the same cult following.)
Never mind that everyone in the commercial looks like red-cloaked monks, the Snuggie is selling like hotcakes. It has become something of a pop culture phenomenon -- the fodder of Internet blogs, YouTube parodies and late-night TV comedy routines.
Even the "Today" show's Al Roker, Matt Lauer and Meredith Vieira cozied up for the camera in their Snuggies.
All of this attention has helped sell 4 million of the blankets. That should keep the Snuggie's manufacturer warm for years to come.

Who could forget .............
When an eternally youthful fitness guru promises that you'll look and feel younger just by squeezing some fruits and vegetables into a glass -- you listen.
After all, this is Jack LaLanne, the guy who launched the fitness movement in the United States by flexing his carefully toned pecs on the very first TV workout show in the 1950s.
This is also the guy who, to celebrate his 70th birthday, swam a mile (1.6 kilometers) while pulling 70 boats carrying 70 people.
LaLanne sold more than 1 million of his Power Juicers.
