Magic Pens Do They Work? KFVS12 Story

Post author By Marketplace
Post date October 9, 2015

Anyone with kids has likely seen the commercials for Magic Pens by Wham-O. The markers claim to change color and erase like magic, but do they work?

Each package of Magic Pens contains nine color-change markers, nine erasable markers, two “magic pens” and a blow pen to enable airbrush art.

To test this we tapped the artistic talents of 11-year-old Zana Riggs of Cape Girardeau. Riggs had seen the commercials and admitted she had been dying to see what Magic Pens could do.

“It’s pretty cool that you can do secret messages,” Riggs said. “And I’d be able to erase when I mess up.”

Nerdwax Wax to Keep Eye Glasses in Place on Shark Tank

Post date October 9, 2015

Even if you’re coming into this knowing next to nothing, you have to admit that “Nerdwax” is a pretty darn awesome name — it certainly captures your attention, right?

It’s one of those names just the right mixture of vague and interesting, but still sounds like something you might potentially want to own.

So what exactly is it? As it would turn out, Nerdwax is one of Shark Tank’s latest entrepreneurial products and is (as the aforementioned name would suggest) a wax and get this, it helps keep your glasses from slipping down your face (can you say “game changer?”).

It’s kind of genius, if you think about it — what a simple solution to such a pervading (and pesky) problem. If a couple swipes of wax can keep me from pushing my glasses up my nose all day, count me in.

The company creates and makes bow ties from rare and exotic wood as well as lapel flowers, accessories, and wood-brimmed fedoras.

You wouldn’t think a bunch of sharks would be so interested in a piece of wood.

You’ve seen “Shark Week” — it’s all about the feeding frenzy.
For Tulsans Adam Teague and Tim Paslay, who design handcrafted wooden bow ties and other accessories at their Two Guys Bow Ties company, that “frenzy” involved an open casting call that landed them on Friday’s episode of “Shark Tank” on ABC.

It was this kind of validation that had Jesse saying:

Some Cable Channels Are Cutting Back On TV Commercials

Post date September 22, 2015

It’s common knowledge that there are more commercials during TV programs than there used to be.

While adding a few seconds here or there hasn’t been all that noticeable, there are a few channels that are pretty bad offenders, with commercial breaks running as long as 8-10 minutes.

Now one prominent TV programmer has decided to cut back on ads. Viacom, which owns TV Land, MTV, Nickelodeon and several other channels, recently announced that the various channels will be giving less commercials per hour a shot.

Brandon Marshall was relaxing in his hotel room while vacationing with his family on St. Barts this summer when a TV infomercial caught his attention.

You know the kind, those late-night programs that somehow persuade you that you absolutely need that product. Well, this one was for a 21-day diet that immediately interested the New York Jets wide receiver and his wife, Michi.

“I was like, ‘That’s pretty cool,'” Marshall said Monday after the team’s first practice of the regular season.

The couple wasted no time and purchased the product, which includes containers for portion-controlled meals and DVDs with short workouts.

‘Shark Tank Episode: Red Dress Boutique, Sun-Staches, the Caddie Girls, and Jungle Jumparoo

Post author By Marketplace
Post date September 9, 2015

Jungle Jumparoo – Safety for this kids’ play device was always one of the big concerns, but since the show first aired it has gotten some exposure on some other TV programs, has a slick website, and seems to be going very well. If nothing else, the appearance on the show has gotten more product out there.

The Caddie Girls – Yes, this business is exceptionally gimmicky, but we really are not going to argue with the fact that since the show they have expanded their business to a variety of other major cities and it seems to be going strong.

Red Dress Boutique – We know that they are doing very well thanks to a feature on “Beyond the Tank.” What’s really remarkable to us is that they’ve figured out a way to do this even in spite of the fact that they are a clothing line, one of the hardest businesses to become successful as a result of the show.

Sun-Staches – Yes, this is an incredibly cheesy product, but it is one that has generated huge profits since the show and been featured since.

The iTrex promises to find anything you lose, from a backpack to your pets, even your kids.

It always seems to happen when you’re in a hurry. You can’t find your keys or your purse; and you just need to get out the door. The iTrex promises to find anything you lose, from a backpack to your pets, even your kids. Consumer expert Amy Davis tested the iTrex for “As Seen on TV Tuesday.”

The motto on the product’s box is “Consider it Found.” You just attach a small disk to anything you need to keep track of, and never lose it again. First, you have to download the app to your smartphone or tablet and sync the iTrex device with your Bluetooth.

Davis enlisted Owen Conflenti’s help with the test.

Nutri-bullet of hype by Graham Chaplow

You know the infomercials I mean. Those long-winded TV ads pushing robotic vacuum cleaners and knife sets with enough variations on blades to make any ardent serial killer smile, and that always seem programmed to entrap stay-at-home pensioners or mums with tots once Peppa Pig or Paul Henry are done, or at night in the wee wee hours when shift workers want something decent to watch but can only find these incessant late-night infomercials with Donald Trump-pitched voiceovers, or men with Trump’s comb-over hair surrounded by enough fruit to feed an army, and with blonde models by their side nodding yes at their claims; or, in the case of the worst of their ilk, literally swallowing whatever green concoction their nutri-product whizzed up, then smiling their fake smile.

The Nutri-Bullet. Yes! The infomercial where I howl, “Just eat the fruit!” Well, that’s how I view what the pro-amalgamation campaigners are about.

Danoz Direct Claims Abtronic X2 Belt Provides Chiselled Abs without Exercise

Post author By Marketplace

A television marketing company has been rebuked by the competition watchdog after claiming that wearing one of its products for one minute, even while relaxing, was the equivalent of doing 400 sit-ups.

Danoz Direct, the company behind the Abtronic X2 device, claimed in television commercials its product would result in weight loss and flattened and toned abs without any exercise or dietary modifications.

The Abtronic X2 is a belt-like device that produces an electric current and is worn around the waist.
