Home game Challenge:                Brett and Zo will host an event such as a barbeque, pool party or game night at their house. The house will be filled with female friends of Brett and Zo.

The Sell Factor

The basic synopsis goes like this: Two teams are chosen to compete in The Sell Factor (or The Hard Sell, or The Sell-Off or The Bestseller… I’m open to name changes). They are given the same random product (could be anything  eg: cupcake, razor, Obama Bobble-head) and have to sell the hell out of it. The team that sells the most , wins! The catch? They can only use one sell factor to do it!

What is a sell factor you might ask? Well anything that is used to sell something else. For example, sex is a sell factor, cuteness is a sell factor, color, music, romance, digital and fame are all sell factors. Brands use these things to sell their products.

Let’s get a little deeper into the show.

Each episode begins with a quick introduction of the two competing teams. We discover their names, what they do, pretty much whatever they want to tell us about themselves. The nature of the show will attract weird and wonderful creative types, people we all love to watch, even when they’re just being “normal”.

The host; a vivacious, and fabulously likable, exotic person like myself, (or someone else… just a suggestion) gathers the two teams together to be briefed on their mission, which involves giving them their product and the week’s sell-factor. She reminds them that they have one day to plan their campaign (we’ll call this day  Strategy Day) and one day to put their campaign into action and sell their product (we’ll call this day Sell Day). And the most important part… They can ONLY use the one sell-factor they are given!

For example, if the week’s sell-factor is ‘cuteness’, then it’s up to both teams to get creative and brainstorm how they can use ’cuteness’ to best sell their product. Will they get tiny adorable children in suits to walk around Times Square with their product? Will they get a batch of puppies involved? Will they talk in baby voices to potential customers… the opportunities are endless!

Hilarity ensues while we watch as both teams strategize and bring their crazy and creative ideas to life. At the end of ‘Sell Day’, the teams gather at a specified time and place where the host meets them to discuss their strategies and how ‘Sell Day’ went. Finally the host counts the money made and whichever team sold the most, wins!

With an exciting, hilariously ridiculous and competitive tone, The Sell-Factor will be watched by Gajillions! Plus, being set in New York City, in such a start-up crazed time, the Sell Factor might actually give ambitious business people something to think about when it comes to their own marketing campaign. Which is kind of a cool and relevant bonus.

Ask a Professional:

Ask a professional is where Bill sits down with a person who is accomplished in their field and asks all the questions they never want answered! This installment features legendary Portland MC Goldini Bagwell of the Sandpeople! For lack of a better term; it's the best thing you will see today (unless you are a skydiver, because that's just cool)!

Tell Me That!

Tell me that! takes free association and kicks it in the a$$! Bill and a daring interviewee pull one-line subjects from a box and say whatever comes to mind! See Bill's love for 3D movies in glorious 2D!

Full episodes will feature a variety of other game-show and man on the street segments including; I Decree!- a game where Bill has to convince someone that he is an expert on a subject armed only with his own BS! Science! - Bill hosts a science lesson for the viewers that includes one unlucky lab assistant!
