Livemercial VIP Reception at the United Center

2009 International Home and Housewares Show: A Livemercial Good Time.
The International Home and Housewares Show is a wonderful opportunity to go to the state-of-the-art McCormick Center in Chicago, meet over 50,000 industry professionals, network, and share ideas. Representatives from over 100 countries are going to take part in the event including mega-retailers Wal-Mart, Target, and Bed, Bath, and Beyond.

The dates of the event are March 22, 2009 through March 24, 2009. But in typical livemercial fashion, we’re going to begin our International Home and Housewares Show experience a little sooner.
Starting Saturday night, March 21, 2009, guests of livemercial will receive chauffeured transportation to the United Center in Chicago to watch the Chicago Bulls take on Kobe Bryant and the L.A. Lakers. Luxury and style will comfort guests as they watch from the Penthouse Suite. And as a special treat, guests will also get to visit with Bulls legend Bob Love. For those who don’t know, Bob Love’s jersey number, #10, is one of 5 numbers retired by the Bulls. Other numbers retired by the Bulls: Phil Jackson’s Bulls coaching 545-193, Jerry Sloan’s #4, Scottie Pippen’s #33, and Michael Jordan’s #23.
On Sunday, March 22nd, 2009 is the Inventors Revue @ INPEX’s Inventor’s Corner. There are two sessions for the revue. The first time is from 11AM to 12:35PM and the second time is 12:45PM to 2:30PM. Inventors will pitch their ideas to a DRTV Panel of experts including superstar pitchman Anthony Sullivan. The two winners of the “Best Housewares Invention†will receive the livemercial “SiY†Sell it Yourself online marketing package worth $5,000. With the package, the inventor will receive a custom livemercial microsite and storefront, placement on AsSeenonTVNetwork.com, and branded space on Social Media channels YouTube, Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and Blogger.
Then on Monday, March 23, 2009, livemercial guests will be provided chauffeured transportation and be treated to a resplendent dinner at Japonais, located along the Chicago River in Chicago. The event will start at 6pm and go till least 10pm. Executive Chef Gene Kato will be performing his famous Hot Rock sirloin steak demonstration.
An exciting, lustrous time is certain to be had by all.
We’re looking forward to seeing everyone at the International Home and Housewares Show.
An ERA Miami eRetailer Summit “Thank You”
A big, “thank you” goes out to all those who made our experience at the ERA Miami eRetailer Summit so enjoyable. From the elegance of the White Party, to the presentations, to Billy Mays’ and Anthony Sullivan’s unforgettable marshmallow shoot-out using guns made with the Dual Saw, the party never stopped. Billy, who knew that ERA Miami was the first time you performed live in front of streaming video?
Speaking of Billy Mays and Anthony Sullivan, a special “thank you so much“ goes to both of you guys for being such gracious, willing participants. You both made ERA Miami 2009 absolutely memorable.
For those who didn’t get to go to the eRetailer Summit in Miami, this time, below are some of our highlights.

And, of course, we would be remiss if we didn’t share, one more time, Billy Mays and Anthony Sullivan in an epic marshmallow war during the Dual Saw demonstration.
