I was able to catch up with Louis this morning and we talked about some next steps that will take place in regards to Giggy. There will be a meeting this Thursday in NYC with potential involved parties in a Giggy project.
Kind of all we can say at this point.
We will be updating the dashboards now though and I wanted to soften the blow some. We had 8 items that were still on the table, and unfortunately there is one item that will be the focus of the meeting Thursday, and the discussion of products that have been created around the submission itself.
The design and engineering teams worked very hard on this project and should be appluaded for their efforts. The end result goal is to truly have a launch of a brand for Giggy and are pushing ahead on those efforts.
There is the item that Lisa really felt exemplified Giggy “Gigilo” the most and felt that the products created by Enventys to support that product were the most interesting/potential market entering ones.
We will be discussing market attack plan over the upcoming week, as we discuss potential partner plans.

thanks for posting zabber — the wait is terrible!! (may just be b/c its the middle of january, and i’m working on the kind of projects where I can easily watch my email…waiting…its awful!!!) and @ ginger, that may be (odds wise) — but it also means that if neither work — the disappointment is compounded!! :)

since it is close to the end of Giggy’s 6month exclusive for the chosen ideas I sure hope they sign on the dotted line for them today. I mean how many more trips can Louis make out to CA!?!? Anyway, since SkyMall’s biggest selling category is pets i’ve submitted my idea there where it is currently G4. so I’m hoping for the best today but preparing for….well, not the best:-)

Next week is a big week! Hopefully Lisa and Giggy want to make a big splash with a new line of 7 new pet products!! Since they don’t seem to be the type to do anything small I’m hoping that is their plan. I read a rumor that Lisa might get her own spinoff show. Seems like she is poised to be a total lifestyle brand like Martha Stewart. I wonder if they are filming the Edison meetings for TV. Seems like they would, to promote the new Giggy line, like Adrienne Maloof promoted her shoe line with a fashion show on this season of RHOBH. Wouldn’t it be so cute to have a dog fashion show with all of our products during a RHOBH show!!

Good afternoon EN community !! I’m sure everyone is getting ready to prep their bird for Thursday…but wanted to update you on another animal first…our favorite animal, Giggy the Pom.
Louis spent Thursday (his birthday) in LA with Lisa, Giggy (wait until you see the picture) and the team at CAA showing them the Industrial Design package that was created by Daniel Bizzell and his team. The presentation was all about Giggy, the development of the brand, and the best ways to take the products that are remaining in the LPS and work to bring those to reality. They were very impressed and are excited about what they saw and there is an additional development project they requested that our team will be tackling over the next 45 days. Louis will be back in LA sometime around Jan 15th as we look to finalize the process with them.
For the time being the remaining items are still alive on the dashboard and will be part of the final presentation.
