InventTech

Bill,

as a Wildside and Anarchy viewer for several years, i have the InventTech commercial memorized. Just for fun, i was wondering what the story behind this is. Is someone involved in Wildside/Anarchy connected to InventTech?

InventTech was one of many PIs (Per Inquiry) spots that ran in NWA Wildside. PI's are commericials where you get paid if someone orders, although Soloflex was a great on back in the late 90s as they paid if someone called and requested a free tape. You get paid $5-$30 on average per order.

With the internet's growth and more dedicated Home Shopping channels, the buys for PIs went way down, and over time it made sense to use the commerical time not sold to sponsors like attorney PAUL C PARKER www.paulcparker.com , for merchandise spots for Wildside and now Anarchy.

The InventTech spot got buys for the longest period and so ran the longest.
