Good Vibrations Nominated for Three Awards including "Retailer of the Year" by XBIZ

Industry Honors Sex-Positive Heritage Brand for Retail and Product Excellence

San Francisco, CA -- (November 15th, 2011): Good Vibrations, the trusted San Francisco-based company that takes pride in providing accurate information on sexuality and toys for grown-ups, was honored with three nominations by XBIZ, including Retailer of the Year Boutique, Retail Site of the Year, and Specialty Release of the Year for GUSH: The Official Guide to the G-Spot & Female Ejaculation from sister company Good Releasing.

XBIZ™ is the adult entertainment industry's leading source for business news and information, on XBIZ.com and in two monthly trade journals — XBIZ World for the Internet and technology sectors and XBIZ Premiere for the retail market.   XBIZ hosts two annual trade conferences, the XBIZ Forum and XBIZ Conference, which culminates with the annual XBIZ Awards, a red carpet gala event honoring the most influential companies and performers who play an essential role in the growth and popularity of adult entertainment around the globe.

The 10th Annual XBIZ Awards will be presented on January 10th at the Palladium in Hollywood, California.   Good Vibrations C.O.O. Jackie Strano says, “We are delighted with the nominations. It feels good to our staff to get recognized within our industry for all the hard work we have been doing all year, especially this past year. Thanks, XBIZ!”

Lauded by local and national press, Good Vibrations stores (five retail stores on two coasts with another on the way) and its robust website, GoodVibes.com, have received numerous accolades and awards. 

Directed by award-winning filmmakers Jackie Strano and Shar Rednour, Gush features real life couples, adult stars, and first time performers in intimate explicit settings.   Good Vibrations Staff Sexologist Dr. Carol Queen penned and hosted the third explicit education film from Pleasure-Ed, the educational line from Good Releasing.
