The Newz Is Out! Say It With A Song.

Who says you can’t take an old idea and put a new spin on it? Well, that’s exactly what has happened in a joint venture between Michigan-based Spazzles and Indiana’s WOW Music. “The founders of WOW Music have been long time friends of ours, and recently while visiting, we got into a creative blue-sky session that resulted in a wonderful new iPhone application we have created together based on the original singing telegram business combined with the intent people have sending greeting cards,” states Tasha Farmer, CEO of Spazzles. The iPhone has stimulated thousands of developers to create incredible applications specifically for the iPhone platform that can be used for a wide variety of daily uses, everything from business applications, to games, utilities, productivity, and with Silly Songz…music.
“We have produced thousands of jingles for global companies over the years. We’re musicians and song writers. When we got together with our friends, we realized we could express our musical creativity in an entirely new way,” says Rich Airis of WOW Music. “Over the years, we have forged some pretty incredible relationships with musicians and singers that we are tapping to be a part of this new way to communicate through song” said Scott Kemper, musical partner at WOW. The new application debuts in the iTunes App Store the first week of February and the company has high hopes that they too will reap the incredible results certain other applications have found through this revolution with Apple iPhone.

Transferable Branding?

In our never-ending quest to sell Spazzles into the corporate space, we have put together some really killer kits! Here is a sample of how we "brand" prospects in each kit to show them exactly how we would present them. The kits themselves are very impressive, touting an embroidered hat, letter of introduction AND custom deisgns we have put together especially for each prospect to take any "imagine if you will" out of the equation. If this looks good to you, give us a call! We're only happy to stretch our wings and show you our capabilities.
And yes, this IS our creative work. Not some ad agency!

The Meaning of 'Spazzle.'

According to the urban dictionary;
Spazzle 1. To be used in lovestruck circumstances, when nothing else comes to mind. 2. When you have an outer body experience and no words can describe how you feel. 3. A strong connection between two people. 4. While napping, a sudden jerky movement, but still remaining very smooth and fluid. 5. An alternative to yes; a very enthused proclamation. 6. The sound made by sucking in excess saliva in a loving way.

While we enjoyed the definition of number 6, we here at Spazzles feel it means to "say what you feel with passion!" It's fun adding new words to the dictionary...

CBS Goes Right To Your Head With Spazzles!

Some of America’s all-time favorite television characters will soon be appearing on a hat, a handbag or a backpack near you. Spazzles! LLC, the Zeeland, Michigan, based creators of wearable accessories featuring bold graphics and pop-culture statements, announced this week that it has entered into an official licensing agreement with CBS Consumer Products.

According to the terms of the agreement, Spazzles! will work directly with CBS Consumer Products’ in-house creative staff to design and produce a unique line of CBS-branded Spazzles! starring characters from 10 licensed properties, including: “The Andy Griffith Show,” “The Brady Bunch,” “The Beverly Hillbillies,” “Cheers,” “Hogan’s Heroes,” “Happy Days,” “I Love Lucy,” “Beverly Hills, 90210,” “Gunsmoke” and “Mighty Mouse.”

“Spazzles are wearable statements that allow you to express yourself anywhere, anytime. They’re fun, colorful and easy to read unlike traditional hat pins, plus they simply slide off and on, no pins or holes to deal with,” said Tasha Farmer, CEO of Spazzles!. “This new agreement with CBS allowing us to feature some of the country’s most iconic and well-loved television characters means they’re really going to get noticed. I mean, who didn’t love ‘The Brady Bunch’?”

“You grew up loving these characters,” said Farmer. “You feel like you know them. The fact that you get to continue that relationship as an adult is pretty cool. We’re very excited at Spazzles.”

Looking for a great way to promote your company, an upcoming event, or even a new product launch? Spazzles make a great way to get your brand seen through "transferable branding." That's a term we use around here because people can then take your brand with them quickly and easily, without having to make a hard decision, like, "what favorite branded hat should I wear today?" With Spazzles, you can easily "co-brand" any item which makes for a true "win-win!"
