Posted on: Friday, 24 July 2009, 08:00 CDT

LOS ANGELES, July 24 /PRNewswire/ -- WhereToGetEngaged.com (WTGE), an engagement and wedding social network, search engine and directory for guys planning the proposal and brides planning the wedding, is proud to announce the launch of a powerful new Products Module and a suite of Professional Video Services.

The industry-innovative Products Module enables premium vendors and manufacturers integral to the engagement and wedding process to painlessly add all or part of their product inventory through their WTGE dashboard. By adding their products and associated information and imagery, vendors and manufacturers can display user and search engine friendly product information on their WTGE profile and on the new Global Products Page of WTGE. Premium vendors and manufacturers can also feature specific products on the home page of their WTGE profile. The Global Products feature of WTGE takes it a step further by allowing in-market customers to easily search for specific products by category across the entire WTGE website to quickly find what they're searching for, whether an engagement ring, stationary or tux. Product reviews, large pictures and ample room for product information completes the picture, enabling premium vendors and manufacturers to tap into in-market customers through the WTGE social network while enhancing their web and search engine presence. Upcoming enhancements include a mobile version of the Global Products page as well as e-commerce capabilities for seamless transactions. The Products Module is sure to make a splash and CEO Christopher Simonetti sums it up this way: "The best way to sell is to show product! The Global Products Page provides consumers an easy way to look at your inventory and search similar products -- putting more of your inventory in front of more customers and then directing them into your store."

WTGE's video production work has already grabbed the attention of clients like Panera Bread Company. Josh Gooden, WTGE's Vice President and Director of Photography, is an award-winning cinematographer. According to Steve Weiss of video manufacturer Zacuto, "the promotional video Josh Gooden, wrote, shot and edited for Panera, beautifully illustrates my belief in taking creative filmmaking and tying it to a product. For developing what could be the model for a whole new production businesses." Josh adds: "You see so many national companies that are on television with local commercials that usually are pretty average." Josh says, "You don't really get to see what this business offers to the consumer unless you actually go to the store and see it. So what we're trying to do is make these videos personal, so you feel like you're in the store and you know the people before you get there. Most local commercials lack the personality of the business they're advertising, and the characteristics that make it unique. If you were planning a wedding, you could use the space at Panera to really think about and plan the event. That's what we're trying to bring out."
