Is This Planet Protected?

The new season of Doctor Who began today with a very triumphant debut of the Eleventh Doctor. There is a definite shift in tone from the previous series (or non-series as it was), and I think this is exactly the episode to reset with. The introduction of Amy Pond was the best companion beginning yet, and I already love her. The rest of the plot didn’t really blow my mind, but the nod to the previous Doctors was glorious and brought out an actual cheer. I think Eleven is a very capable incarnation and I look forward to seeing him in action week after week.

I’m already re-watching because I let a lot of information slip past me the first time. I also want to compile a list of “clues” to watch for as the series progresses because I think there will be quite the payoff with this writing team. For instance, there is a blue lens flare that lingers for a considerable amount of time when there is no known source of light for that scene. Hmmmm. I’m also curious about the possible significance of the “Myth” laptop. Each of those things may be inconsequential, of course, or they could be related to the coming Silence. Who knows?

Who knows, indeed!! *ahem*

  9. Mitch Gould Nutritional Products International Gould hhas “retail” in h?s DNA.

    ? third-generation retail professional, Gould learned t?e
    consumer g?ods induustry f?om hi? father and grandfather ?hile growing ?p ?n Neew York City.
    One of ?is fir?t sales jobs wass t?king ?rders f?om neighbors f?r bsgels
    every week.

    As an adult wit? a career that spans mor? than thgree decades, Gould moved ?n from bagels,
    cream cheese, ?nd lox to represent m?ny of the leading product manufacturers ?f consumer
    gooods iin America: Igloo, Rubbermaid, Sunbeam,
    Remington, Chapin, Paramount, Miracle-Gro, Native Remedies, Flora Health, Steven Seagal’? Lightning
    Bolt, Body Basix, and Hulk Hogan’s extreme energy granules.

    “? starte? iin the lawn aand garden industry but expanded my horizons early on,” s?id
    Gould, CEO and founmder ?f Nutritional Products
    International, ? global brand management firm based in Boca Raton, Fl.
    “? worked ?ith Igloo, Sunbeam, Remington — a?l major brands th?t ?ave been leaders ?n t?e consumer ?oods industry.”

    Eventually, Gould segued ?nto nutritional products.

    “? realized early t?e nutritional supplements were much m?re
    than j??t multivitamins,” Gould said.

    “American consumers were ready t? take dietary supplemnents ?nd health
    and wellnesss products into ? whole neww level of retail success.”

    Gould solidified hiss success inn t?e health ?nd wellness industry thro?gh hiss partnerships ?ith A-List celebrities ?h?
    wante? to develop nutritional products ?nd hhis ?lace in Amazon history ?hen th? online ecommerce
    retailer expanded ?eyond books, music, ?nd electronics.

    “D?ring my career, I attended many galas and charity events w?ere I met different
    celebrities, ?uch as Hullk Hogan and Chuck Liddel,” Gould s?i?,
    adding th?t ?e evesntually partnered with se?eral of t?ese famous entrepreneurs ?nd developed nutritional products, ?uch as Hulk Hogan’? Extreme Energy Granules.

    “Work?ng with them to create new health ?nd welllness products ?ave me a
    first-hand look int? the burgeoning nutritional sector,” Gould ?aid.
    “I realized that staying healthy ?as ?ery iimportant to
    my generation. ?? kids we?e ev?n more focused on staying
    fit ?nd healthy.”

    W?en Amazon decided to ad? a health and wellness category, Gould was already positioned to plzce mo?? t?an 150 brands
    and eeven mo?? products ?nto the virtual shelves t?? online giant
    was adding ever? day in the ear?y 2000s.

    “I met Jeeff Fernandez, ??o w?s ?n th? Amazon team t?at was building t?e new category f?om
    the ground ?p,” Gould ?aid. “I al?o h?? contacts ?n the health
    annd wellness industry, ?uch ?s Kenneth E. Collins, w?o was vice president ?f operations for Muscle Foods,
    ?ne of the largest sports nutrition distributors ?n th? w?rld.

    Gould s?id tjis “Powerhouse Trifecta” ?ould
    not ?ave as?ed for ? bettr synergy bet??en the thr?e of th?m.

    “This was capitalism at its b??t. Amazon demanded ne? high-quality dietary supplements, andd ?? supplied t?em ?ith mor than 150 brabds ?nd products,” ?e added.

    The “Powerhouse Trifecta” ?orked ?ut s? well that Gould eventually hired Fernandez t? ?ork
    for NPI, whe?? hhe ?? now president ?f t?e company, and Collins, wwho is th? new executive vice president ?ff NPI.

    “W? wor? well togethe?,” Gould ad?ed.

    Fernandez, ?ho also worked as a byyer foor Walmart, ?aid the thr?e
    of them ha?e close t? 75 years of retail buying and selling experience.

    “NPI clients benefit f?om our years of knowledge,” Fernandez a?ded.

    Gould ?aid product manufacturers ?re unlikely to fid three
    professionals ?ith o?r experience repreesenting retailers
    ?nd brands.

    “We know what brands ne?d t? d?, and we understasnd wh?t retailers ?ant,” Gould ?aid.

    After ?is success with Amazon, Gould founded NPI aand solidified
    hiss ?lace in the dietary supplement ?nd health and wellness sectors.

    “It ?as time to concentrate ?n health products,” Gould sa?d, adding that ?e has wo?ked
    wit? mor? than 200 domestic andd international brands t?at wanted
    to launch new proructs oor expand t?eir presence iin the largest consumer market
    in the world: t?? United ?tates.

    “As I visited th? corporste headquarters of s?me of the largest retaikers ?n the world, I realized th?t international brands ?eren’t be?ng represented
    in American stores,” Gould ?aid. “I realized t?es? companies, ?specially t?e international
    brands, struggled t? gain a foothold in American retail stores.”

    ?hen Gould surveyed thhe challenges confronting international product manufacturers, hhe visualized ? solution.

    “The? ?ere burning th?ough tens ?f thousands oof
    dollaars t? launch their products,” Gould ?aid.
    “By the time thgey sold t?eir f?rst unit, they h?d eaten away at t?eir
    profit margin.”

    Gould sazid t?e biggest challenge waas learning t?? nnew cultures:
    Ameerica ?nd Wall Street.

    “?hey didn’t understand t?e American consumers, and theey di?n’t
    knhow ?ow American businesses operated,” Gould
    ?aid. “Th?t is where I c?me ?n with NPI.”
    To provide the foreign companies ?ith th? business support th?y nee???, Goould
    developed ??s lauded “Evolution off Distribution” platform.

    “? brought together ev?rything braands neede? to launch t?eir products in the U.?.,” he
    sa?d. “Instead of opening a new office inn America, I made NPI thei? headquarters in the U.S.
    ?ince I ?lready had a sales stff in place, they ?idn’t h?ve to hiure a sales team wuth support staff.
    ?nstead, NPI did ?t for them.”

    Gould sai? NPI supplied ?very service t?at brands needed to sell produdts ?n America succe?sfully.

    “?ince many of these products ne?ded FDA approval, ?
    hired a food scientist ?ith mote than 10 ?ears experience
    t? streamline t?? approval of the products’ labels,” Gould ?aid.

    NPI’s import, logistics, and operations manager ?orked w?th
    new clients t? make sure shipped samples didn’t ?nd up in quarantine ?y th? U.?.
    Customs.

    “O?r logistics eam ?as decades ?f experience importingg new products into t??
    U.S. t?? our warehouse and then shipping them
    t? retail buyers ?nd retailers,” Goulpd ?aid.
    “NPI offer? a one-stop, turnkeey solution to import, distribute, and
    market new pdoducts in t?e U.S.”

    To provide ?ll t?? brands’ services, Gould founded ? new company, InHealth Media, t? market the brands t? consumes and retailers.

    “I s?? the companies wasting thousands ?f dollars on Madison Avenue marketing campaigns t??t failed t? deliver,” Gould sa?d.

    Inst?ad ?f outsourcing marketing t? costly agencies ?r building ? marketing team f?om
    scratch, InHealtgh Meria ?orks synergistically ?ith ?t?
    sister company, NPI.

    “InHealth Media’? marketing strategy ?s perfectly aligned wit?
    NPI’s retail expansionn plans,” Gould ?dded.
    “T?gether, w? import, distribute, ?nd market new
    products a?ross the country by emphasizing speeed t? market
    at an affordabe ?rice.”

    InHealth Media recentyly increased ?ts marketing
    efforts ?y adding national and regional TV promotion tto ?ts services.

    “Lifestyle TV hosts are the original social media influencers,” Gould
    sai?. “Our clients are getting phenomenal coverage that can reach more than 100 million TV households in America. In addition, we are giving them high-quality TV promotions.

    Gould said IHM also has increased its emphasis on “earned media,” which is when journalists and bloggers offer coverage for free instead of the pay and play model that exists in many formats today.

    “We have access to thousands of media professionals that we reach out to on a regular basis,” Gould said. “Because our clients have created innovative products, we have been able to get them coverage in top trade publications and general mass websites, such as HGTV, Forbes, and Vitamin Retailer.

    “You cannot buy this kind of credibility, prestige, and coverage because it is not for sale,” Gould said. “Our team has developed contacts with these major news outlets, which is how they found out about our clients’ products.”

    NPI works with large and small product manufacturers.

    “We emphasize timeliness and affordability,” he said. “We know all the costs, so there are no surprises. When the brand sells its first product to a consumer, they have the profit margin they set as a goal months earlier.”

    Gould is proud of his “Evolution of Distribution” platform.

    “I developed it to help international brands succeed,” Gould said.

    During the years, Gould successfully used his “Evolution of Distribution” to help new brands, such as Scitec Nutrition and Native Remedies, both of which succeeded in conquering the U.S. market..

    “We saw that NPI had lots of experience in helping companies get a good foothold in the U.S. Working together, NPI has been instrumental in introducing us to various key distribution channels (including The Vitamin Shoppe),” said a Scitec Nutrition executive.

    Native Remedies also benefited from NPI’s “Evolution of Distribution.”

    “We are thrilled to have our products available at these top retailers,” said George Luntz, then president and co-founder of Native Remedies. “It is great to have a business partner like NPI helping to expand our market reach. We expect this to be a banner year for us.”

    Gould said he is proud that these companies succeeded with NPI’s help.

    “This is what NPI does,” Gould said. “We find innovative and creative health, wellness, and beauty products, and the NPI and IHM teams work together to introduce them to consumers and retailers.”
