Wish.it is a plug and play application (1 line of pasted-in code) that lives on any retailer page and that allows online users to wish for products and share them with friends across the largest social networks with only one click. When a user clicks on the Wish.it button anywhere across the web, the product they wish for can appear on activity streams, user profiles and fan pages on massive social networks like Facebook, Twitter and MySpace and on social media blogs across the web. Friends see these product impressions and can click through to purchase the product for themselves... or for the user that wished it!
Our goal with Wish.it is to help consumers acquire and purchase the products they care for, and help retailers increase conversions using social media. The Wish.it solution has three main components: first, we enable your consumers to identify products they care for, second, we help distribute product impressions to the user's friends in a highly targeted fashion ("Social Media Leads"), third, we help convert the user by sending product-specific alerts to their social media accounts on Facebook and Twitter ("Social Media Conversions").
When a visitor "wishes" a product, the item is shared as a wish on the social media channel of their choice.

With Wish.it, users post your products as "wishes" to streams on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, fan pages and social media blogs across the web.
An average of 150 social media impressions every time a user shares your product as a wish to friends through Wish.it.
Still trying to convert users with only email? Reach and engage your consumers with product alerts that they'll care about through the social media channels they're currently using.
Every time a user wishes for one of your products, they'll be sent alerts on these products directly to their Twitter and Facebook inboxes.

<script src="http://wish.it/features/loader" type="text/javascript"></script>
2. Place the following code where you want the Wish it Button to appear. In the case where parameters are not defined - we'll attempt to parse your page to fill in the missing parameters; however, defining the parameters will result in a more accurate publishing to social networks we're connected with.
