Advertising

From equipment to apparel, technology is the life force of golf as companies seek to give the edge to their products that will allow them to perform better, but there is one very important aspect of the Canadian golf industry that did not adapt to this evolution.
All of that changed on Sept. 15, 2008, with the launch of www.GolfNewsNow.ca, the industry portal website devoted to bringing real-time news and information to the Canadian golf industry.
Here at GNN readers are kept up to date, in synch, and informed of industry news through the online access and via the auto-generated email reminders whenever a new items are posted.
While GNN offers the benefits of instant information for its readers, it doesn’t stop there. Advertisers are also poised to receive distinct advantages over traditional print mediums:
• Various creative options / interactive effects that make advertisements stand out.
• The ability to change advertisements instantly, depending on which product or promotion is being launched. Your message is always current and relevant.
• Added promotional / exposure value as your customers are a ‘click’ away from your company’s website – memory retention is all but removed from the equation.
• Zero time between issues and archived posts mean that all content is delivered in a timely manner and can also be indexed for later reference.
