Interviews are Always Free No Strings Attached!

CES 2012

We State this multiple times on the site, but we have had some questions come up again today.

  1. Live Interviews are Always Free.
  2. Floor Interviews are Always Free.
  3. All Interviews are Published.
  4. Every Vendor we Interview is Treated Equally.

While we do have a one more sponsorship opportunity. It is managed and executed separately from the interviews. Covering CES is an expensive venture. With 20 people on the ground, our cost just to cover the show, studio, bandwidth etc is in excess of $40,000. Our sponsors offset our cost, and in return we give them amazing exposure for the next year within all of the 200+ media interviews and live segments we produce.

TPN Breaks Your Product Out!

CES 2012

For the past 7 years the TPN team has honed our skills to get the vendors we choose to interview some serious consumer exposure. Everyone promises you exposure but who really delivers.  This is our not so secret formula.

  1. Each Host has a per-established audience/website/following/reputation for providing honest and critical commentary of CES products.
  2. We cover the show in Vegas Live so those that want the info while the show is happening can do so.
  3. We post produce each and every interview following the show.
  4. Each show host publishes their own write ups on those interviews on their respective sites plus here at tpn.tv, techpodcasts.com etc.
  5. Each Interview has a professional written blog post with media embed that includes outbound links to properties and products.
  6. We distribute that content to over 140 consumer devices through our network and parent company RawVoice.
  7. We have dedicated CES Channels on Roku, Boxee, Samsung Smart TV, Google TV, iTunes, Zune MarketPlace etc..
  8. Interviewed Companies Link back to us or use the video embeds on their own sites.
  9. With over 1500 previous CES interviews and Websites with deep tech and consumer coverage depth Google does the rest!

The long tail takes over, we have interviews on products and services from shows 1-2 years ago that still get huge traffic. The long tail is where we win the battle and vendors get ongoing traffic from our coverage. Our Sponsors like GoDaddy and previous sponsors like Audible, Hitachi, Luxor, Citrix GotoMeeting benefit as well, as their ad spots are embedded in those interviews forever.

See you at the show and be on the lookout for the Tech Podcast Network floor teams as well in their Blue Polo Shirts and their camera crews!

Years as CES TPN talent: 4th year

Favorite moment from CES 2010: 3 minute video with Andy Dick over at the Atomic Testing Museum.

Interesting fact: Before Jeffrey leaves his hotel room, he places his business card on page 119 of the Bible. Why page 119? It’s actually his birth date.

Expectations of CES 2012: The show is said to be sold out vendor-wise. That means we gotta come in with our guns blazin for over 200 videos.
