For decades, Walmart has dominated the retail landscape of this country.  Ever since the doors to the first Wally-World back in 1962, the stores have become an inescapable part of the American experience.  I remember my family buying some things at a Piggly Wiggly, some things at Winn Dixie, and some things at Walmart.  Now, everything comes from Walmart.  You could shop at multiple places, but who has that kind of time?  Walmart has done an extremely good job of making it not only unnecessary to shop somewhere else, but financially unwise.  Basically, if you've got to get a few things at Walmart - you might as well get all of the things you need too.i

If you are an entrepreneur or inventor, how awesome would it be to see your product in the most popular retail store in America?  Now, imagine your product is really popular.  Your million dollar idea could be worth way more than that - as this deal could put you in all of the Walmart stores, Sam's Club locations, and Walmart.com.  The program is incredibly useful for anyone looking to sell a product through retail chains, even if your product pitch isn't successful.  The networking, insights on Walmart shoppers, and seminars are worth their weight in gold for a burgeoning company looking to harness the powerful retail forces of Walmart.

Last year, two innovative products from Louisiana made the cut: Mike Wisecarver's Booyah Boat Wash and Southern Design.  Both companies now have products on shelves in Walmart and are making their creators money right this very instant.

The "Open Call" for innovative new products will be held June 13th in Bentonville, Arkansas.  You'll have to get registered and jump through a few hoops to get in front of the Walmart buyers, but for the right product - it could be a life changer.  The gigantic corporation has dedicated itself to buying $250 billion in products manufactured, sourced, or grown in the U.S.A. in the next 5 years.  If you want in on this action, and you've got the innovative product to back it up, find out more and get registered right here.
