SAN FRANCISCO - November 1, 2010 (Investorideas.com newswire) – YesDTC Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:YESD), a direct-to-consumer global distributor and marketer of consumer goods and products, announced today the Company has acquired the ongoing direct response television and radio marketing rights to the popular knowledge and vocabulary building product called WordSmart(R). Under the terms of the agreement, YesDTC will begin booking all associated revenues as of early November 2010, a benefit that is expected to add meaningfully to YesDTC's revenue stream going forward.

 

Mr. Alex Trebek, the host of the popular television quiz show "Jeopardy!" which represents the number two prime time television series currently in syndication averaging nine million viewers a day, also serves as the host of the WordSmart long form television infomercial and endorses the WordSmart product line.

The "Jeopardy!" quiz show is known for testing intellect and knowledge recall and it is high respected among many viewers for its ability to challenge contestants in categories of higher learning. Since its 1984 syndication debut, "Jeopardy!" has been honored with 28 Daytime Emmy Awards, more than any other syndicated game show. Eleven Emmys have been awarded for Outstanding Game Show/Audience Participation and host Alex Trebek himself has won five Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Game Show Host. Mr. Trebek's association with "Jeopardy!" makes him a highly visible and publicly recognized leader in the higher education, learning and greater intellect industry, making him an ideal figurehead to endorse the WordSmart product line.

"We are very excited to have acquired this extremely successful property and its association with Alex Trebek. The WordSmart infomercial and marketing campaign is a proven commodity that is currently generating very strong media efficiency ratios and millions of dollars in recurring high-margin revenues," commented Joseph Noel, CEO of YesDTC Holdings. "With the agreement now complete, we are planning a rapid and seamless integration of the WordSmart infomercial and related operations into YesDTC that will allow us to began booking substantial additional revenues almost immediately. We are estimating YesDTC will generate at least $12 million of revenue from this initiative alone over the next 12 months, with additional substantial revenues coming from our other marketing programs. Importantly, we were able to acquire this high quality revenue stream with zero dilution to our shareholders."

 

Mr. Noel continued, "At YesDTC, we are building an exciting portfolio of high quality product offerings that are expected to generate significant revenues and profits for our Company and our shareholders. WordSmart represents our third major product marketing initiative after SimplyMusicTM, for which the infomercial began airing in the second quarter and MediPendantTM, which began airing last week. Additionally, we are currently planning the launch of our first international marketing initiative for the PureSleep(R) device later this quarter with additional initiatives already in the pipeline for the first and second quarters of 2011."

 

The WordSmart product includes a comprehensive suite of computer and Internet-based knowledge and vocabulary building programs targeted at grade school through college level students and at adults seeking to improve their reading speed, reading comprehension and general knowledge. SAT/ACT test preparation has also been a very strong market for this product line, partly because of the money back guarantee that students, under certain conditions, will be able to improve their SAT scores by at least 200 points and ACT scores by at least four points. The WordSmart product is also guaranteed to increase GRE/GMAT scores by similar levels and, with only a minimum of 20 hours of use, to increase a child's English or reading grade by one full letter grade.
