On Saturday May 23rd the SnapBagger was featured on HouseSmarts TV.   "House Smarts TV", is a 30-minute weekly syndicated magazine format home improvement and lifestyle program.  It airs around 60% of the US on broadcast networks.  This was excellent PR and we were honored to be part of Lou Manfredini's show!  The SnapBagger will be on their website all week, so check it out, and search SnapBagger in show archive to see a clip of the airing.

We had a great time at the National Hardware Show in Vegas this year!  Last year we unveiled the SnapBagger in the Inventors Spotlight area of the National Hardware Show.  This year, we graduated to a "real" 10x10 booth at the show.  It is amazing to think how far we have come with this new product in just 1 short year of introducing it, and not working on it as a full-time gig.  In light of all the attention the economy has received, we were not certain how good the show would be, but we were very pleasantly surprised to have had such a great show.   The highlights of the show for us were signing up many more retail stores, catalog companies, and Reps that would like to carry the SnapBagger.  Our TV exposure will also increase this year with the likely addition of The Shopping Channel (Canada's Version of HSN), as well as numerous companies that expressed interest in creating a Direct Response ad campaign for SnapBagger.  We enjoyed meeting new people and re-connecting with many people we met last year.

I think I need one of these!
