SnoreStop won an eBay auction for advertising space on a young man's forehead last week. Twenty-year-old Andrew Fischer of Nebraska auctioned off the 1-month use of his forehead for advertising space, and earned $37,375 when the bidding ended. Fischer also earned priceless publicity for his business, HumanAdSpace.com, by appearing on network television shows, and he has an appearance scheduled for a "Nationally Syndicated Daytime Talk Show" on January 27.

SnoreStop, a division of Green Pharmaceuticals, markets a homeopathic remedy for snoring. SnoreStop CEO Christian de Rivel said, "I look forward to an enjoyable association with Andrew, a man who clearly has a head for business in every sense of the word."
