Zevotek Announces Ionic Bulb TV Ad Extends High Ranking to Second Straight Week
NEW YORK, Jun 28, 2010 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- Zevotek, Inc., (OTCBB:ZVTK) (Frankfurt:T5V1), a worldwide direct marketer and distributor of innovative personal and home care items, today announced that Infomercial Marketing Service (IMS) named Zevotek's Ionic Bulb TV ad as direct response advertising's 4th most frequently seen household product TV ad for the week ended June 18, 2010. IMS is an independent infomercial industry watcher that monitors over 30,000 hours of paid television programming each month and publishes weekly rankings and authoritative data on direct response advertising. The Ionic Bulb was the IMS top ranked household product for the week ended June 11, 2010, extending Zevotek's standing in the IMS Top 20 direct response ads to a second consecutive week. IMS standings for the week ended June 25, 2010 are expected to be available later this week. Zevotek posts IMS rankings on zevo-tek.com and newionicbulb.com.
Major U.S. retailers that Zevotek is in contact with consider a Top 20 standing in the IMS rankings as a benchmark when evaluating orders to buy new products like the Ionic Bulb for placement on store shelves nationwide. Zevotek is represented by the retail sales agency Leisure Time, Inc., which is responsible for presenting the Ionic Bulb to Wal-Mart, CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid and BJ's Wholesale Club and securing their orders to buy Ionic Bulbs for placement on retail store shelves. Those retailers combined operate more than 23,000 U.S. stores, supercenters and clubs and operate popular websites for shoppers to buy household products. CVS.com, which attracted at least 26 million visitors in 2008 according to a Compete.com survey, lists TV advertised products as their top selection for household products.
Commenting on the announcement, Zevotek's CEO, Rob Babkie, said, "I am pleased to see our June ad blitz is delivering the results we anticipated when we announced our plans last month. Zevotek is working closely with Leisure Time to make sure major retailers take notice. Our TV ads show Americans the Ionic Bulb's powerful combination of improving a family's home air quality while instantly saving money on lighting and helping our environment. We strongly believe Ionic Bulbs satisfy growing mainstream demand for green products, healthier living and money saving value that will translate into a successful retail product."
