Magic Play tones its titles

FITNESS GUIDE: Mitch Perliss brings the workout DVD business to his new label

By Cindy Spielvogel -- Video Business, 4/14/2008

APRIL 14 | Mitch Perliss, senior business director of North American distribution for Magic Play Entertainment, is bringing the workout DVD business to his new label.

Perliss, who honed the fitness business at his former company, Razor Digital, is taking a more targeted approach to the category now.

“Certain key retailers aren’t supporting the fitness category like they were a few years ago, so we’re focusing on product that is well-known to the consumer,” he says.

That will include a new release from long-time instructor Tamilee Webb along with Stacy McCarthy, a premier yoga teacher in the San Diego area.

Both have strong promotional abilities in addition to their fitness acumen.

“We’re going to do more direct-to-consumer marketing,” Perliss says.
