About the Self-Help Industry

In a 2013 press release titled "$10.4 Billion Self-Improvement Market Survives Scandals & Recession - More Content & Services Being Delivered Online, Finds Marketdata Enterprises"  Marketdata Enterprises, Inc., a leading independent market research publisher since 1979, released the 9th edition of one of its best-selling studies, a 382-page report entitled: The U.S. Market For Self-Improvement Products & Services.

In the study it states...  "Technology is driving the way Americans produce, find, obtain and use self-improvement content."

The study quotes...

MARKET VALUE… The total U.S. self-improvement market was worth $9.84 billion last year, versus $10.82 billion in 2007 — a 9.1% 4-year decline. We forecast better 6.1% average yearly gains from 2012 to 2016. The recession took a toll on most market segments, including live seminars, books, infomercials, personal coaching, commercial diet programs and stress management. However, growth was evident in audiobooks, medical diet programs and holistic institutes/training companies.

AUDIOBOOKS MARKET… This is now a $2.97 billion segment. After dipping 10% in 2009, sales have rebounded strongly, 10% in 2010 and 13% in 2011. The APA says that 24+ million Americans now listen to audiobooks. Of this total, self-improvement titles account for $445 million—or about 17% of all audio book sales. 24% of Americans now listen to audiobooks.

This is the industry Imagine TV lives in.  There is no other Self Help based TV network on cable or broadcast today.  Imagine TV is not a religious network but will feature content that Inspires, Motivates and Entertains.

Reed's, Inc. is a Publicly Traded Stock on NYSE under the symbol "REED"

Reed's was started in 1989 by Chris Reed. His research into the history of sodas found soft drink recipes from before the beginning of the modern soft drinks industry…

He found that back in the early log cabin days, the pioneers couldn't go to the store and buy soft drinks; they brewed their own sodas. They didn't make them the way modern commercial soft drinks are made, even the so called natural ones. They brewed them in their kitchens, directly from roots, spices and fruits. These early soft drinks, besides being natural and delicious, were also healthy. Many folk used them as herbal tonics.

Each batch of Reed's Ginger Brew is a throwback to these hand crafted brewed sodas and is made with pride. Each batch is carefully brewed and aged like fine wine in small batches by our expert brewmasters. We choose only the finest fresh herbs, roots, spices and fruits to make our brews. We won't let sugar, preservatives or artificial anything spoil Reed's natural taste. We now have 7 versions of our famous Reed's Ginger Brews, the first commercially brewed sodas in the world and winner of national and international gourmet food awards.

In 2000, Reed's bought Virgil's Root Beer, a three-time Outstanding Beverage Award winner of the National Association of the Specialty Food Trade (the national organization for the gourmet food trade), from Ed Crowley another fanatic of real authentic brewed sodas. Since then we have expanded the Virgil's line to include many other flavors.

In 2012, we started brewing Kombucha. Our special probiotic Kombucha culture is grown in a special tea blend brewed from yerba mate and oolong tea and spring water. Our creative Kombucha blends use ingredients that are uniquely flavorful and always functional.

Whatever they do, Reed's always searches for the best ingredients and takes the time to brew a superior beverage. Reed's customers appreciate their passion, care and attention to detail and their support has made Reed's the top-selling beverage in the natural foods industry.
