Feeling Fresh

Stater family,

I wanted to share the good news - you’ll probably see me soon on television promoting the GE french-door refrigerator. After working on the product for a couple years, I was lucky enough to be cast for a reality-style road trip with a celebrity chef (Ben Sargent of Hook, Line & Dinner) which will be highlighted in a national tv spot and online "webisodes".

The commercial will hit the air this Thursday June 14 and is scheduled to run for about 3 months. It will primarily be on major networks (ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX) and specialty channels targeting the appliance demographic (Food, cooking, style). I'll let you know if I get specific times or stations!

For now, you can see a preview from the local Fox news coverage here: http://www.wdrb.com/story/18741030/tv-ad-features-appliance-park-engineer
The GE contest page announcing the campaign is live on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/#!/geappliances/app_243932939045868 (Sign up to win gift cards or the sweet refrigerator)
www.freshpedition.com will start uploading videos from our road trip on Thursday June 14, and the full adventure will be posted by the end of the month

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to wear any buckeye gear, and they’ve edited out my quotes “someday I won’t be so drunk” and “swagger like a dagger”, but we did get a good O-H-I-O picture…

ITS(still miss you)S,
Justin

PS: Unfortunately this hard work and tv star business has prevented a couple chances to catch up with you all. On the bright side, South 40 weekend is rolling up real soon – June 29 and 30. If you’re interested and we haven’t been chatting – shoot me a note!
