Special Focus:
Product Feasibility - U.S. Hispanic Mark - DRTV Media

The Las Vegas course also features an extra in-depth look at these three essential areas of Direct Response TV:
product feasibility, the U.S. Hispanic market, and DRTV media.

Product Feasibility

Like a venture capital firm, you should only invest in a DRTV endeavor after fully understanding the financial reality and its ROI potential.

In this program, we'll use the same rigorous evaluation major marketing companies use to determine if a product is right for DRTV.

Participants walk away with the Direct Response Academy's invaluable 22 point feasibility analysis, a perfect blueprint for choosing the right product and managing your campaign.


"Thank you for all the great info! I walked away feeling more confident that I can do a better job managing our newest fundraising initiative.
We will build better, test better from the start!"

The U.S. Hispanic Market

The Hispanic DR market is burgeoning. In this program, you will study the nuances of marketing to the Hispanic consumer. Learn the tactical differences in approach and issues specific to this market - including dealing with COD and the truth about credit cards in marketing to Hispanics.

Participants will learn to: 

  • Determine if a product is feasible for a Hispanic infomercial campaign
  • Choose the best creative approach and production format for a Hispanic program
  • Choose the right service providers for the Latino market
