I live in Las Vegas and I finally saw my first Afrezza TV Commercial 15 minutes ago while watching the classic, "Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer"
So excited to see it.
I was so tired of seeing the "My Pillow" commercials every single morning on Fox News, multiple times per day with some of them being 2 full minutes in length.....wondering how can a Pillow Company afford so much air time and Mannkind has not a one.
But I am happy and excited to see my first one.
It's been a long road , since 2009, but I finally think we are positioned for wonderful times ahead.
Keep it going Mike!!!
Good Luck Everyone!!!

wondering how can a Pillow Company afford so much air time and Mannkind has not a one. That is because consumer products heavily advertised on TV do not pay for air time. The TV station gets a split of the revenue from the advertiser when a product is sold and nothing if the product does not sell. The 800 numbers and offer numbers you see on the screen at the end of the commercial are different for each station so that the advertiser can keep track of which airing generated the revenue. Drugs is a different business; revenue splitting based on consumption for any prescription product reimbursed by Medicare or private insurance is a violation of The Stark Act and similar state laws, and will land the manufacturer in some very hot water, incur some huge fines, and potentially land the executives in jail. I can only imagine the number of drug ads if this was not the case. |

I think you are talking about "Infomercials" with 800 numbers in your first paragraph, though I can't confirm the comment you made about payment being based on sales. Regular TV advertising for consumer products or any other product for that matter are paid for by the manufacturer/advertiser. Payment is not based on sales but on advertising rates provided by the media company and agreed to before the ad airs. |

I have seen it twice. Probably a lot since I don't watch tv that much. One was last week on TBS in between Big Bang Theory shows and the other today 12.25.17 during one of the football games.
