CINCINNATI, Jan. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Blaine Pharmaceuticals is pleased to announce the addition of Tim Arnold to its team as Director of National Accounts. In his position, Mr. Arnold will concentrate on gaining OTC distribution with major retailers to promote Blaine Mag-Ox 400(R), the #1 doctor recommended magnesium supplement on the market. Tim will be instrumental in evaluating and adding innovative over-the-counter products to complement the existing Blaine product portfolio.
Previously, Mr. Arnold served as the General Manager of Wal-Mart Americas for Omron Healthcare, the worldwide leader of blood pressure monitors, thermometry, weight management, and respiratory products. While at Omron, Tim helped to develop Wal-Mart as the dominant leader in retail sales of the blood pressure monitor category in the U.S. while assisting their international division in expanding and growing throughout North and South America.
Blaine has already gained over-the-counter distribution in over 28,000 locations, including Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Kroger, Brooks/Eckerd, Albertson’s and other fine retailers. This move represents one of the first steps in a bold, new sales and marketing strategy for the company -- which had traditionally marketed the supplement directly to physicians and pharmacists - - and for the product, which had previously been sold behind the counter, even though no prescription was required.
