So, we are delighted to get that chance with Marcus and his team. We already have exciting plans in place and can’t wait to get them live.
From our first meeting with Neal (Fullman – CEO of Early Marketing) and the team it was clear they got what we’re trying to do.
We loved the passion they showed from the start, and you can see they are fully behind what we believe in at Iqonic Sports – which is to give our brilliant independent sports retailers a fairer, simpler and lower-cost way of finding more customers online.
We’re excited about how things are coming together!”
