Survivalist Culture, Top Trends & Early Bird SPECIAL

Having trouble viewing this email? Click Here


Greetings Trend Hunters!

Early Bird Special - It's August, which means if you buy the 2011 Trend Report (last updated in Q2), you will get the 2012 report too, when it is launched... all at a 35% discount. Compared to last year, we've dramatically increased our database, drawing from 550,000,000 views of data, 1,100+ PRO Trends and 45,000+ examples. We're also making daily updates and getting ready to launch a new platform of tools, and if you order now, you'll get all those tools at our discounted early bird rate. Order HERE.

Survivalist Culture is this week's PRO Trend, with a score of 5.8. The implications: The resurgence of zombies in pop culture is undeniable, with zombie books, movies, TV shows and video games flooding the market. Associated with the “end of the world,” zombies strike a natural fear of preservation in humans, which, combined with recent talks of an impending apocalypse, has sparked a new kind of survivalist mentality. While survivalists of the past may have worried about natural disasters or other types of societal collapse (resource shortages), a new survivalist culture is coming to the fore armed with zombie survival kits, disaster-ready shelter and unparalleled knowledge about the possibility of apocalypse. Some examples:


Prefab Disaster Housing

Customized Zombie Games

Zombie Survival Packs

Extreme Survival Kits (UPDATE)

Apocalypse-Ready Boom Boxes

Survivalist Supplements

Enjoy!
