GOLFGYM® UPDATES ITS AFFILIATE PROGRAM
WITH NEW BANNERS AND WIDGETS
SANTA ANA, CA – February 25, 2009 – GolfGym, the industry leader in golf fitness announced today that it has updated its affiliate program with new banners and widgets to match the look of its new packaging and website graphics. All GolfGym products and promotions now feature one of the elite biomechanics, strength and conditioning coaches on the PGA Tour, Joey Diovisalvi, affectionately known by Tour players as “Coach Joey D”.   

As a coach on the PGA Tour for over 10 years, Joey D is best known for coaching Vijay Singh during a seven year period that was highlighted when Vijay became #1 in the world.  Joey D’s coaching methods with Vijay were featured on an ABC Special, Practice Like a PGA Tour Player, which showcased Vijay’s dedication and work ethic to improve his golf fitness and performance, and a CBS Special, The Science of Golf, which focused on the biomechanics of the golf swing.

The new banners and widgets feature GolfGym’s signature shades of orange and include images of Coach Joey D. The dynamic graphics and bold colors are incorporated in the company’s entire line of promotional materials including packaging, ads and brochures for a consistent, branded image.

"We introduced our affiliate program a few years ago and we’re very pleased with the number of online retailers who have joined the program," said Ken Pierce, President, GolfGym. "Coach Joey D’s elite status as a coach on the PGA Tour and his expertise in golf-specific movement patterns brings to GolfGym the highest level of credibility. Online retailers can reap the benefits of Coach Joey D’s expertise and generate additional income by promoting GolfGym and the best known golf-specific products on the market today.”

As part of the affiliate program, online retailers can earn a 12% commission on sales of all GolfGym products that originate through their web sites. By adding links to GolfGym products on their web sites, retailers get credit for product sales when a customer clicks from the retailer’s site to the GolfGym site and completes a sale within 60 days. Retailers can choose to place banner ads, add GolfGym products to their catalog, or add a text link from an article.

As is standard with GolfGym, all products are easy to use, portable and affordable. All of them are used daily by PGA Tour players in the PGA Tour fitness trailers. Each GolfGym product includes an Instructional DVD featuring Coach Joey D as he walks you through all the exercises he employs on the PGA Tour with his players Pat Perez, Ryuji Imada, Charlie Wi, Tom Pernice Jr., and Tim Wilkinson just to name a few.
