Co-founder acknowledges recognition; discusses the discovery of gravity in cyberspace

Glendale, California -  StartupNation.com, a multimedia content company designed for entrepreneurs, recently named SampleRewards.com as one of the Top Five Home-Based Businesses. According to StartupNation.com, home-based businesses represent about 50 percent of all businesses registered in the United States.

            The recent announcement of the SampleRewards No. 4 ranking made national news, which in turn brought more attention to the hundreds of unique products on the SampleRewards system.

"I think it's great that our company was recognized for what we can offer entrepreneurs," said Billy Carmen, the company's co-founder.

            SampleRewards.com is a patented product marketing system that powers the company's 100-plus Web sites. SampleRewards.com offers awareness of new inventions and products to the media, retailers and consumers. In addition, the company provides educational resources for new product inventors and manufacturers, and produces a live event trade show called "The Celebrity Trade Show". The event caters to celebrities with new products and manufacturers that are seeking celebrity endorsements.

"It's simple 'viral marketing.' We offer ordinary consumers the chance to get free products by recommending the products to wholesalers and retailers.  The SampleRewards method puts huge numbers of consumers to work for various companies for the reward of product samples," Carmen said.

According to Carmen, viral marketing is an advanced form of "word of mouth" and is the essence of the SampleRewards program. 

"But SampleRewards is viral marketing with a twist I call 'Cyberspace Gravity,'" Carmen said. "It turns out cyberspace, like real space, actually has a form of gravity. And we at SampleRewards have discovered it!"

SampleRewards operates primarily through over a hundred different Web sites – all linked together. The biggest search engines use algorithms favoring linked sites.

"Like gravity pulling elements and materials into larger and larger entities - galaxies, stars and planets - the clustering of linked Web sites at SampleRewards has created a huge form of 'cyberspace gravity' that makes companies using SampleRewards zoom way up in the most important search engines," Carmen said. "Sometimes they make it to the top of the search engine's list. Sometimes not. But always to the first page.  And that creates even more hits for the sites and more sales for the SampleRewards.com companies."
