Rationale
These days there are tens of thousands of companies who offer gear and equipment to the general public, and military contracts around the world. The market is extremely competitive. Consumers and businesses are inundated with products and often have difficulty deciding which one to purchase. Most buyers will hit the internet and visit sites like Wolfmaan.com and YouTube to look for information on new products. This is especially true with products which are valued at over $50.00!
Social networking is the key to successfully getting sales on your newly released product. People who watch professionally produced, high-end gear reviews are likely to send these videos to their friends and encourage others to purchase the product.
Wolfmaan.com offers no-cost gear reviews to manufacturers and vendors who wish to participate. These gear reviews provide viewers and readers the opportunity to see your products used in a real-world setting to evaluate their performance.
You can’t buy this kind of coverage!
Wolfmaan.com and affiliates are authorities in the outdoor education and recreation world. Their courses, reviews, videos, and information are highly sought after and valued by tens of thousands of loyal followers and readers.
The coverage given by Wolfmaan.com and affiliates would cost tens of thousands of dollars to acquire through conventional means. For the cost of one or more of your products and related shipping, you will have the opportunity to see your new product demonstrated by our expert, well-established and world-renouned staff members while outlining the products benefits to the customers.
Once the video has been produced and published on YouTube and/or Vimeo, the video will receive thousands of views from discerning customers around the world who are eager to buy the latest, greatest, and newest outdoor equipment. Direct links to Amazon.com or eBay are included in the video to give customers immediate access to your product!
What’s more, when the video is released, an article about the video will appear on Wolfmaan.com and affiliate sites, and the video will be embedded in the article. This allows customers to have an all-round view of the product both in print and on video.
After all this, yet more information is provided to targeted and genuinely interested listeners of the Barefoot Bushcraft Radio Show which airs weekly and features not only products, but guests and authorities in the outdoor recreation, military, and tactical field.
The Videos
Our professional film crews have worked for high-end companies such as National Geographic, Canadian Geographic and Discovery Channel. Videos are produced in a real-world environment – the wilderness. This ensures that your product is showcased in its native environment, as well as assures potential customers the product is designed for hard use in the wilderness. Videos are produced in Hollywood style, complete with introductions, background music, and scrolling credits at the end. Featured instructors are qualified outdoor educators as well as comfortable and confident on camera. Only studio quality video cameras and professional audio devices are used in the filming process to ensure your product review video is something you can be proud of. Videos of this quality will often cost companies thousands of dollars, without the added bonus of distribution.
Written Reviews
After each video is placed on wolfmaan.com or affiliated sites, and an article of approximately 1,000 words is written to accompany each video. This helps to promote your product. Often the articles are picked up by major publications, or are duplicated on the internet. This kind of publication and duplication assures maximum distribution of product specifications.
