FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Webmation Aims to Triple Martial Arts Schools Retail
Sales
Webmation technology holds promise to double
or even triple retail sales for martial arts schools
Germantown, MD (February 1, 2004) Webmation
has added a new online proshop to its Ultimate Martial Arts Internet
System that combines key marketing principles and technologies to help
martial arts schools dramatically increase their retail sales.
Webmation and Tiger Claw have entered into a groundbreaking
agreement that may double or even triple martial arts schools retail
sales. The schools can now offer any of Tiger Claw’s thousands
of products, including uniforms, apparel, sparring equipment, and weapons
from their Webmation Proshop. Best of all, they only pay wholesale and
can set the desired sales prices for the merchandise creating huge profits
for the school.
"We have added so much value with the new proshop and other system features
that most of our schools are able to pay for the entire year's system license
within one or two months of being online. We are committed to helping our members
use technology to succeed in every aspect of their business." said Hersh
Sandhoo, President and CEO of Webmation.
The Webmation Proshop is designed to save time in placing
orders. Orders are promptly and automatically fulfilled by Tiger Claw
and shipped to the student or the school. The schools can also order
the items that they would like to keep in their inventory (like uniforms),
via a special member web site, toll free number, or fax and still pay
the same great wholesale price.
The martial arts schools also have the ability to create custom apparel with
their school logo, including t-shirts, baby tees, jackets, sweatshirts, shorts,
pants, workout suits, tote bags, and sparring equipment without needing to
buy in bulk, stock inventory, or have order minimums.
Students of the schools will be able to place orders 24 hours a day, receive
special discounts and be able to pay for tournaments, test fees, seminars,
summer camp registration, and other school events directly from the school’s
web site.
Tiger Claw’s East Coast Managing Director, Jennifer Oh had this to say
about working with Webmation, "As a very traditional company it was our
respect for Webmation’s serious martial arts background that made us
look twice at a website solution for our clients. The promise of new technology
to free school owners time to spend more time teaching may have long seemed
to be just a tantalizing dream… Webmation has made that dream a reality
with the addition of the proshop feature to their Ultimate Martial Arts Internet
System. The Custom—not cookie cutter—approach of Webmation to creating
school websites matches our commitment to offering comprehensive and flexible
uniform and equipment customizing options unique to each school. Together,
Webmation and Tiger Claw make it easy for school owners to meet the equipment
needs of their students."
