Talking to the IR weeks ago he told me that the independent sellers were banding together to form their own company and this may be it. If the projections ring true then this should be a banner year for PFSD: Pacific Sands Enters Eco One Distribution Contract With WFL Marketing Group, Inc. CLOVIS, Calif., Mar 18, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Pacific Sands (OTCBB: PFSD chart, msgs) announced today that it has entered an exclusive distribution contract with the WFL marketing group Inc. of Salt Lake City, UT for its Eco One line of spa care products. In return for exclusive distribution rights, WFL has agreed to meet a series of graduated sales projections ranging from 6 months to 5 years into the future. Additionally WFL will assume responsibility for advertising, promotional campaigns, and other expenses related to the distribution of the Eco One products. "Our market research indicates that there are about 15,000 stores that sell spa related products in the U.S. Our goal is to place the Eco One product line into 20% or 3,000 of these stores in the next 12 to 18 months," said Steve Larsen, President of WFL Marketing Group, Inc. He went on to add that an 80% market penetration or 12,000 stores is attainable and may take as long as five years to accomplish. "Based on established sales figures, each store should sell between $200 to $600 per month of product once the Eco One product line is placed in the store." Per store sales can reasonably be expected to increase as new products are introduced and the Eco One product line gains further visibility. The WFL Marketing Group, Inc. recruits independent sales representatives nationwide through the "United Association of Manufactures Representatives" or UAMR (www.uamr.com). UAMR is a professional service that has been bringing manufacturers and representatives together since 1965. WFL has absorbed Pacific Sands' existing team of independent sales representatives. Pacific Sands' Eco One spa products are environment and health friendly spa care alternatives.
