We have been fortunate to be given the opportunity to profile many successful entrepreneurs and their companies, on the Heartbeat of America Nationally televised program. We created this blog to tell the world their story and how the Heartbeat of America series, hosted by William Shatner, has helped them increase their sales, expand their business operation, and in so doing, has helped to move America forward. They are America’s heartbeat.

The interview with Doug Llewellyn turned out to more like a spontaneous
conversation. Doug Llewellyn is obviously a skilled professional, and in
fact took our prep interview and made it very comfortable and spontaneous
on camera,yet led it with clues and leads. still allowing me spontaneity.
It is a complex nexus of skill and organization that enables such a production
to manifest its product.

I’ve been working pretty much non-stop and definitely attribute that to the show that Heartbeat produced……..and I haven’t even begun to exploit the shows potential yet. I’ve posted the digital files on my website in several places and have sent show notices to a 1000 people dozens of times……and have received positive feedback. My next step is to create additional VCR tapes and DVDs of the show to send out to other clients.

Bill,

I thank you for loaning me your image. Once we began to circulate the word about your award and show, I was almost instantly nominated for “Top 10 Innovators”. I learned today, that I am a finalist. Yet, last year I applied for the exact same award, and was brushed off like a flea. They did not even believe that I had licensed to Intel. Zero credibility. This year, I come with the Intel sale in hand, Intel’s praise and testimonial, plus the lovely award from you.

Bert Tenzer is a brilliant Producer,he has an inate intuitive sense that can get right to the essence of our unique selling points,in blinding speed.It was impressive.Their team incliding anchor Doug Llewelyn crafted a quality product quickly.They know what they’re doing.In past careers I had the opportunity to work with TV producers in various parts of the world,including London’s West End-Shepards Bush.I also had the opportunity to piggyback very expensive studio time from Sheena Eston,and to work with her producer.I can tell you for what it is worth that Bert Tenzer is a brilliant mind at work.The best.

They have figured out how to craft a quality product within a budget so that everyone wins.The fact that we can license these rights and that mega-star William Shatner has agreed to do this is quite impressive.most stars I know wouldn’t do that.

This Heartbeat Of America program that Bert Tenzer,and William Shatner have put together is a wonderful service to American small business,in my opinion .We could never afford such a level of production otherwise…

We love the “Heartbeat of America” production featuring Dr. Perricone. We are now in the process of trying to show this great product to as many of Dr. Perricone’s present and future clients as possible. We have shown a VHS copy of the show to many different station managers at television stations throughout the northeast and all are as excited as we are to get this high quality, info rmative, and patriotic show on the air especially in these times of international conflict. We feel this show not only sheds favorable light on our company but also instills” Pride in America ” to all who watch.

We have shared copies of the show with clients, partners, staff, bankers, and friends as well. We have showed the program at our most recent job fair while recruiting staff. Have made great inroads with local politicians and business people with the value you brought to us. Shared copies of the wallet- sized CD-Roms during proposals and we believe it helped us win. We will put the streaming video on our website in a week or two. Heartbeat of America has brought tremendous pride and value to the whole corporate team.
