Empire Today LLC is proud to announce that 2007 marks the 30th anniversary of the introduction of its iconic television pitchman "The Empire Man."
Part blue collar superhero and part pure entertainment, The Empire Man has come to represent great value, world-class customer care, and next day installation to generations of Home Furnishing and Home Improvement consumers.
Empire Today, its famous jingle, and the lovable Empire Man character have been the subject of interest on Late Night with Conan O'Brien (NBC), The Ellen DeGeneres Show (syndicated), Extreme Makeover Home Edition staring Ty Pennington (ABC), The Montel Williams Show (syndicated), Curb Appeal (HGTV), Clean House (Style), and Designed to Sell (HGTV).
Introduced in 1977 as a live action character, and later adapted into a popular animated persona, The Empire Man has grown to become a cultural icon.
The Empire Man has been seen internationally in the media, has spawned a line of popular bobblehead dolls, is featured as a crowd favorite in the annual McDonald's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and was honored by the Chicago Cubs with an official "Empire Day" celebration.
Empire Today offers next-day installation of carpet, hardwood flooring, laminate flooring, ceramic flooring, window treatments, No Clog Gutters, bath liners, and shower enclosures. Custom windows and vinyl siding are installed within two weeks.
The Empire Man was originally portrayed on television by Lynn Hauldren, who continues to provide the voice of the animated character.
