Hawking makeup, memory tapes and a host of other products, brand-name stars are cashing in with show-length commercials disguised as entertainment
ON FIRST VIEWING, AN INFOMERCIAL may seem as strange a beast as, say, a game-show miniseries.
But these half hour-long hybrids of advertising and programming, already familiar to late-night insomniacs, are popping up more frequently in daytime hours on cable and broadcast channels, usually as ersatz talk shows or newsmagazines.
Stars are singing hosannas to finance plans, car wax, crazy kitchen gadgets, and weight-loss systems. Why? Mostly, it's not to bolster sagging careers but, as an infomercial might put it, "to maximize hidden earning potential."
Infomercials were born in 1984, when the government ended its 12-minute-per-hour limit on TV ads. Six years later,
the "shows"(for which the infomercialist buys the airtime) were raking in over
$500 million a year in sales for one infomercialist, William Sergio, a major producer of celebrity infomercials.
William Sergio is the multi-millionaire marketing genius who is the leading writer, producer and director of celebrity infomercials airing on national television that are raking in the big bucks.
Sergio's super successful celebrity infomercials have been featured everywhere from PrimeTime with Diane Sawyer to the Johnny Carson Show.
