Piudali, an Organic Skin Care Line From the Amazon, expands to the U.S.

Piudali, a natural, organic, and eco-friendly skin care line containing ingredients from the Colombian Amazon rainforest, will introduce their product line to U.S. consumers. Piudali was brought to the U.S. market by Nutritional Products International. TransMedia Group said it will conduct a national campaign that will publicize and position Piudali Natural Skin Care products as "the gold standard" in all-natural, organic skincare. "Their unique product line appeals to the million of consumers who are searching for a skincare line that is ecologically and socially sustainable, and organic, while containing only the highest quality, most-effective ingredients," says Kim Morgan, Senior VP at TransMedia. Piudali co-founders, Martha Neira & Myriam Moya, both pharmacists and elected members of the Colombian Association of Skin Care Science & Technology, have spent a considerable amount of time in the Colombian Amazon rainforest. They have had the unique opportunity to build a close relationship with the indigenous communities throughout the Amazon, specifically the Uitotos community. Their relationship with the Uitotos has afforded them access to their main ingredient, Amazon Peach Palm, a tree which produces 'super fruits' packed with essential fatty acids and antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E. The oil extracted from this fruit has exceptional penetrating power, enabling its antioxidant, anti-aging and regenerative nutrients to reach the deepest skin layers.

Reviews - There are definite flaws in the review system and Amazon is a big one. I like to read the reviews on Amazon, but when a review is overly good or overly bad, I click on the reviewer's name and look at their other reviews. That gives me an idea of whether they bash or praise everything or if there is merit to it. There are too many people paying for reviews and then picking the best to post. I prefer a review from a consumer who will give an honest review. I have no interest in getting the "top Amazon" reviewers to review my books. Actually, I don't push for Amazon reviews like I probably should, but I've seen far too much abuse on the reviews. Shri
Re: I'm Published On Kindle! - Thanks everybody! @Yinka: Go to Amazon.com, scroll down to the bottom and click "Self-publish with Us" then follow the instructions. I remember you wrote an ebook a while ago. That would be just fine. You will need a US dollar account to cash the cheques from Amazon.com and a UK pound stirling account if you opt to publish on Amazon.co.uk as well.
Some online business suggstions debunked - 2. Sell photos on stock photography sites --- I tried this, couldn't even get in the front door. But then, I'm apparently a lousy photographer... However, if you do get in, I think you only get something like 25 cents a download... 8. Build services atop Amazon Web Services ---I've been an Amazon associate for a loooong time, selling books, and business has been lousy since the beginning. Nobody reads anymore...I do get a few DVD sales every now and again... but frankly I make much more money though Google Ads on my site. It took several months for that to build up, but now as my website has more readers those ads are starting to pay off, whereas there's been no corresponding jump from Amazon ads on the same pages...

However, I always thought books and DVDs were the best selling items on the web since they're relatively inexpensive and consumers know exactly what they're getting (unlike clothing and electronics that need to be "tested"). I think a lot of people still read books, but they just prefer to buy in-store or from Chapters.indigo.ca or Amazon.com/ca rather than from an associate. In fact, a lot of people I know still feel uncomfortable making purchases on the web.
The woes of writers and publishers - [quote:36p0mzru]I was looking at the reviews for Amazon's Kindle product a couple of weeks ago and couldn't believe the number of people who didn't like the product because it prevented them from giving away free copies of the book or reselling it to someone else. [/quote:36p0mzru] I think authors have a hard time with this. Go to Amazon and see all the books offered for sale new - and then just below that see the links offering the same book for sale used! And anyone in their right mind will probably save some money and buy the used book - which means that the author and publisher of that book are not getting any income from it. I really don't think Amazon should be allowed to do that... that's what used bookstores are for. Amazon really seems to be biting the hand that feeds them in that regard.
