Gameface Recruits Sponsors For NC and VA Rugged Maniac Races
Boston (April 10, 2013) – Gameface Media announced today that American Family Fitness and Fitness Connection have agreed to advertise through Gameface’s digital media platform for two upcoming Rugged Maniac events. Fitness Connection will sponsor Rugged Maniac’s North Carolina race April 20, while American Family Fitness will sponsor the Virginia race on May 4. Thanks to these advertisers, photos taken during these events will be available to participants to view, download and share on social media platforms for free.
Each photo taken during the North Carolina obstacle race will be tagged, uploaded, and embedded into Fitness Connection’s website, all featuring the Fitness Connection logo in the corner. The same will occur for American Family Fitness for the images captured in Virginia. With these photos embedded in the websites surrounded by special offers for health club deals and discounts, these sponsors are able to increase their overall reach while also increasing the potential for participants to become new, loyal customers.
“Working with Gameface, American Family Fitness and Fitness Connection have become heroes with participants,” Gameface Media CEO and co-founder David Lavalle said. “Our technology enables these top-notch health clubs to create deeper connections with their customers and prospects by providing participants with mementos they will keep forever.”
