QVC(R) is Looking for a Few Good Products

WEST CHESTER, Pa., Oct. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Do you have a product that you'd like to present to millions of customers? Are you looking to expand your business? Entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to present their consumer products to QVC at its 2006 Product Search on Tuesday, October 24, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET at The Manhattan Center (311 W. 34th Street, New York City). The search will provide inventors, designers and manufacturers with a forum to share their innovative products with representatives from QVC's merchandising department.

Over the years, the QVC Product Search has successfully introduced dozens of new products to the QVC lineup, which features more than 250 new products each week. Previous product search events have discovered numerous QVC vendors, including Ron and Margie Kauffman, founders of Chesapeake Bay Gourmet; Alan Rosen of Junior's Cheesecake fame; and most recently, 92-year- old Bea Toms, author of "Recipes from a Country Cook."

This year's product search is also recognizing the significance of women entrepreneurs through a new relationship with the Make Mine a $Million Business program. QVC has come together with the Make Mine a $Million Business program, a collaboration between Count Me In, a non-profit organization, and OPEN from American Express(SM), the company's small business team. The program is designed to help women entrepreneurs accelerate their business growth to $1,000,000 in annual sales. QVC will hold special educational seminars for women entrepreneurs and small business owners as well as product search sessions with QVC representatives.

"QVC honors the spirit of the American entrepreneur and is pleased to be able to introduce its products to our national audience," said Marilyn Montross, QVC's director of vendor relations. "We're always looking for new and innovative products to bring to our discerning customers. With the inclusion of the Make Mine a $Million Business program, we may be able to assist even more women entrepreneurs in the achievement of their overall business goals."

QVC is looking for products that are demonstrative, appeal to a broad audience, can solve a common problem and have unique features and benefits. Advance registration is strongly recommended to attend the educational seminars or before presenting products to the representatives from QVC's merchandising and vendor relations divisions.
