ENCINO, CA–(Marketwire – September 23, 2010) –  Game show host Chuck Woolery is used to bantering with people on television, and the topics generally won’t put you to sleep. But now, thanks to a new ad campaign for which Inter/Media Advertising’s Entertainment Division has signed Woolery, he’ll be making sure that people will fall asleep. Woolery will be the star of an infomercial for Alteril, the nation’s leading all-natural sleep aid.

Woolery, the original host of Wheel of Fortune from 1975-1981, has been inducted into the American TV Game Show Hall of Fame in Las Vegas. Among the other shows he has hosted are: Love Connection, Lingo, The Big Spin, Scrabble, The Home and Family Show, The Dating Game, Greed and Think Like a Cat.

“Chuck Woolery has been welcomed in people’s homes for more than 30 years and is easily recognized as someone who brings integrity to inquiry about the product and the people he interviews,” said Robert Yallen, CEO of the Inter/Media Group of Companies. “We are pleased to have him on board as the Alteril spokesman.”

Woolery will appear in a 30-minute infomercial interviewing people who have overcome their sleeplessness thanks to Alteril. Woolery interviews a fireman, a helicopter pilot, a doctor, Ultimate Fighter Tim Kennedy and NASCAR driver Kevin Conway — people that most would be surprised to hear suffer from sleeplessness.

The reasons for sleep problems are different in each individual and the spot makes the case that with three primary all-natural ingredients — L-tryptophan, valerian and melatonin — Alteril has something for everyone. While most over-the-counter sleep aids contain diphenhydramine, a substance largely found in cold medicine, Alteril only contains natural herbs to help the user get the best sleep possible without using any type of drug. Alteril is sold in major retailers throughout the country.

The ad campaign will run on History Channel, Hallmark, Lifetime, TV Land and Discovery, among other networks.

Inter/Media Advertising, which bills $450+ million annually, has gained a national reputation for uniquely blending direct response advertising with general market techniques. Inter/Media does breakthrough, award-winning advertising and media for such companies as the US Army, Johnson and Johnson, Neutrogena, Ubisoft, Budget Blinds, Biotab Nutraceuticals, Marinello Schools of Beauty, Fly.com and Corinthian Colleges, among others.
