World's First Core-Cardio-Strength Cycle Enters Commercial Market

Canton, Ohio (PRWEB) December 09, 2011

Fit One is introducing the BallBike Revolution, the world?s first full commercial Core-Cardio-Strength Cycle. The BallBike Revolution is a sleek machine that looks like the child of a motorcycle and an indoor bike with a stability ball seat. It is a single synergistic workout that works the whole body at the same time, to save time. Although it looks a little unusual at first, once you get the idea of sitting on the ball there is no going back to the awkward bike seats of the past.

The patented ?controlled instability? cradle, which holds the stability ball, allows the user to work their core muscles while getting a full cardio workout. The heavy gauged steel frame has a step though design and incorporates 16 levels of magnetic resistance. Similar to an indoor or recumbent cycle, the BallBike Revolution allows users to work at a high level of impact free intensity. However, unlike a typical commercial bike, the BallBike adds a strength element by adding rubber resistance tubes which can be used for upper body conditioning. There is also the main benefit of working core muscles and getting a cardio workout with the comfort of the stability ball.

The workouts on this piece of equipment range from Group Exercise to Rehab and infinitely in between. The BallBike offers core, cardio and strength, in a full commercial product, into an industry that hasn?t seen anything ?truly? new since the elliptical in the mid-nineties.

The BallBike Revolution is slated for US distribution in Mid-January 2012 and can be seen in more detail on http://www.BallBike.com.

"The Flea Marketing community is large, active, and under-served online." said Robert Light the president and founder of the GetThatWholesale Network of websites. "By bringing the same human edited, free listing approach to MyFleaMarketGuide that has made our other sites so successful we believe we can meet a need and provide terrific exposure for flea market vendors."

"While the site is primarily focused on flea markets, MyFleaMarketGuide also contains listings for farmers markets and recurring antique fairs and auctions. These additional niches are closely related to the flea marketing world and like it are under represented online." Light went on to say, "Our model for all our sites has been to provide business people and their customers with valuable information and new ways to find one another. "

Mr. Light explained the enduring and growing success of flea markets like this: "It is not surprising that flea markets have become so popular; the economics of the situation are perfect. In one location you have more merchants than most shopping malls and they are paying a very low rent for their space. The low merchant overhead means tremendous deals for shoppers and a wide variety of items to choose from. Where else could you pick up such great wholesale level prices on everything from designer handbags and sterling silver jewelry to music CDs and movies on DVD?"

"The biggest flea market of them all is said to be the one held on the grounds of the Pasadena Rose Bowl, near Los Angeles. Over 40,000 browsers visit the stalls of over 2000 retailers. That's is just one market among thousands across the country."

UPPERcase Inc. Announces Findings From Market Research Survey

Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) January 27, 2012

UPPERcase recently announced the completion of a market research study aimed at testing market appeal for CargoInn?, their innovative product offering. The complete results are available upon request to parties interested in partnering, licensing, or otherwise working with UPPERcase in product manufacturing and distribution. Requests for this marketing data should be received following the ?request for information? process described on UPPERcase?s partners web page.

UPPERcase is an innovation driven company that applies custom-designed technological advances to everyday storage needs. UPPERcase?s new invention is aimed at markets in industries including residential, commercial, and government. Following their recent patent application, UPPERcase invites potential partners to explore joining them in supplementing their own product lines. Survey results indicate that efficiencies, independence, gained functionality, reclaimed space, and even improved quality of life for many give efficacy to this new and unique product offering.

For example, respondents across the US overwhelming provided comments referring to UPPERcase?s invention with qualitative comments such as:

?????Keeps my garage space very organized while my belongings are still easily accessible to myself or my children.? (Cambridge, MA)
?????Takes the weight off of lifting heavy things high in the air? (Huntington, WV)
???? ?It is impressive that the same cabinet holding camping gear is also able to hold the weight of a chop saw.? (Dallas, TX)
?????I hate having to reach high for stuff on a garage shelf, and having to go and hunt for a ladder.? (Orem, UT)
?????You can store things up above the ground, leaving more room for the car, but you can still easily access those items.? (Celina, TX)

The recent market research survey assessed several marketing factors for UPPERcase?s latest invention including product appeal, pricing, product names, and open ended responses for any positive or negative feedback. The survey distribution and design was done by third party research specialists at a Dallas Internet Marketing Company to ensure the survey process minimized bias and provided statistically sound results.

Several key findings stood out from the data regarding the invention?s marketability and viability for production. The survey findings are based on responses from over 500 individuals living in the United States.

The survey asked respondents to watch a brief 60 second video clip showcasing a fully functional prototype of the invention in use while summarizing unique product features of the never seen before lift assisting technology. Following this illustration, respondents were then asked to rate their level of desire to own the product. This question was designed in part to represent a typical consumer experience of watching a one minute video ad and then measuring response levels given the limited exposure of a brief product demonstration. The results were overwhelmingly positive with 91.1% of respondents indicating a high level of desire to own the product.

Another key finding exposed the value added by incorporating UPPERcase?s technology into existing storage cabinets currently on the market. Respondents were given a price range for current garage storage cabinets without UPPERcase?s technology and then asked about desired pricing for a cabinet with UPPERcase?s technology. This question revealed that respondents were willing to pay a premium of approximately 23% over traditional garage cabinets to have a cabinet with UPPERcase?s technology.
