SECUREVIEW LAUNCHES IN 'USA TODAY'
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Mar 16, 2000 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- SeaView
Video Technology Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SEVU) will launch its first
pre-release advertising for SecureView in the March 17 edition of "USA
Today," according to advertising consultant Jennifer Lawson. "It's a
small ad, just to get a feel for what kind of inbound traffic we'll
generate," Lawson said. "We've had very little advertising exposure for
SecureView; we need to dip a toe in the water." Lawson also promised
advance notice on broadcast dates for the World Billfish Tournament on
ESPN, co-sponsored by SeaView and Continental airlines.
The new Marine Division TV ads will also run in select cable markets
starting March 20, and will also be viewable at wallstreetreporter.com
on the Internet. Regarding the somewhat elusive Wall Street Reporter
cover story, VP J. R. Cox commented, "There's apparently some confusion
among their staff -- we've been told one date, then another." Cox said
the latest word indicated the publication should be available tomorrow.
Teaming partner Logis-Tech, a major supplier to the U.S. government, is
preparing sales estimates and forecasting for SecureView installations
in hundreds of government weapons facilities. The initial phase will
add video security to existing installations through Logis-Tech's
current $300-million contract. "They tell us as many as 25,000
buildings worldwide are in need of video security," stated National
Sales Manager, Larry Hoffman. "All their presentations will now include
SecureView, and they have two major events scheduled this month with
the military." Hoffman confirmed that Logis-Tech will send several
people to SeaView HQ next week for product training.
"SecureView will integrate with the existing passive detection systems
employed in command monitoring," CEO Rich McBride explained. "Now, when
one of the cameras senses movement, or another alarm trips, they'll see
and record the event. This is essentially the same type of system we'll
use in banks and commercial buildings.
"We have the computer software interface working now in our own
building," McBride continued. "The system can be programmed to do
unbelievable things -- even call your cell phone when a camera detects
movement. And of course, you can call the system via the Internet from
anywhere in the world."
The homeowner will ultimately benefit from the same technology, McBride
said. "They'll be able to buy a four-camera system with remote control
for around $1200 dollars. For those wanting a bigger system, we'll have
a plug-in card for their home computer. These are all modifications of
existing technology, meaning it's readily available now."
Consultant Mike Jackson reported great success for the Marine
Division's aggressive spring-season dealer blitz. "Boat shows are
delivering both sales and new dealers, and new dealer orders are
rolling in. Unit sales topped $40,000 in the last two days."
