BioElectronics Announces Worldwide DRTV Strategy
Company to Launch DRTV Campaigns in South America, Canada and Europe

BioElectronics Corp. (PINKSHEETS: BIEL), the
maker of inexpensive, disposable drug-free anti-inflammatory devices, today
announced the details of its worldwide Direct Response Television (DRTV)
strategy to further enhance its international marketing efforts for its
award-winning, pain relieving ActiPatch and Allay brands. The Company will
launch campaigns in Latin America beginning in December, Canada in January,
Europe and Australia in the first quarter and is currently in process of
negotiating a partnership to enter the lucrative Japanese market.
BioElectronics plans to launch its first international DRTV campaign in
Latin America during mid-December and has selected one of the largest
full-service direct response companies specializing in the Hispanic market.
"We are very excited to be launching our first television advertising
within the Latin American market in conjunction with RC Television
Production, Inc. (www.rctelevision.com), which is one of the leading DRTV
firms in Latin America," commented Andrew Whelan, CEO of BioElectronics.
"Over the past few years the size of the international Hispanic DRTV market
has grown considerably and we believe our ActiPatch and Allay brands will
be very well received. Over the next few weeks millions of consumers
within Latin America will begin seeing our advertising on some of the
region's largest television networks. Our initial media purchases have
been completed and our call center and fulfillment functions have now been
set up. While our first Hispanic-oriented campaigns will mainly target the
larger companies in South America, we are also excited about the U.S.
domestic Hispanic market, which at 45.5 million strong, is the single
largest and fastest growing minority group in the United States."
BioElectronics recently contracted with industry leading DRTV firm
Schulberg MediaWorks (www.smw.tv) for the production of several DRTV spots
targeted at the English speaking world, including 60-second and 120-second
spots for both the Allay and ActiPatch brands and a five minute
international-oriented ActiPatch version. The first of these spots can now
be viewed at the Company's website at www.bielcorp.com. "We are very
pleased with the quality of media we have produced that will target the
English speaking world," commented Mr. Whelan. "We plan to launch our
first campaigns in Canada during the month of January and we are currently
working with media buyers in the United Kingdom and Australia for campaigns
beginning during the first quarter of 2010. The experience we will gain in
these geographies will be important as we prepare to launch similar efforts
in the United States as soon as FDA clearance is granted."
BioElectronics believes these campaigns, in addition to other international
marketing programs currently being negotiated, which include Japan and
China, will generate substantial revenue growth for the Company during
2010.
