SMAK to Offer Integrated Brand Building Services Effective Immediately
Harbinger,
one of the nation’s leading brands for high quality, innovative
weightlifting and conditioning gear, announced today a strategic
partnership with SMAK Strategies. Effective immediately, SMAK will
execute strategic consumer marketing campaigns to support the company’s
aggressive growth initiatives in fitness with the launch of HumanX,
Harbinger's new line of functional training gear, and the company's
exclusive sales/marketing/distribution partnership with premier natural
full body wet wipes, Action Wipes.
This is the latest evolution in the growing relationship between SMAK and Harbinger. This past summer, the 25-year old company enlisted SMAK to create and manage a series of field-marketing campaigns for Action Wipes. Known among cyclists, triathletes, endurance athletes and outdoors enthusiasts as the most effective shower alternative, Action Wipes signed an exclusive partnership agreement with Harbinger in February 2013 to help drive marketing, sales, product development, and retail distribution. The highly successful field-marketing campaigns include the Dirtbag Challenge at OADD at OR Summer 2013 Market and Demo Days at Fall 2013 Interbike.
“SMAK is elated to partner with Harbinger, a company that has been making a difference in the fitness world for two and a half decades”, said Maria Hennessey, founder of SMAK Strategies. “We look forward to executing unique marketing and public relations strategies that will connect more consumers to Harbinger’s established product line and generate buzz around the company’s newest endeavors: HumanX and Action Wipes.”
With 4 million+ Harbinger products sold annually in over 3,000 sporting goods stores, specialty fitness shops, gyms, and health clubs worldwide, the Harbinger brand has established credibility and loyalty among consumers everywhere. With HumanX, Harbinger is tapping into a new category that is quickly gaining popularity among fitness enthusiasts: functional training.
“Over the last decade, we’ve seen a shift in the fitness market from static strength to multidiscipline training,” said Chanin Cook, Director of Marketing for Harbinger. “Crossfit emerged. Gyms and clubs developed functional training group classes. We think this as an area of fitness that we can make a difference. We are extremely excited to have SMAK on board to continue propelling the new HumanX line and Action Wipes brand into the spotlight.”
