CoMedia Corporation’s (Pink Sheets:CMTN) American Football Alumni 100 city tour exceeds management’s expectations during its first 20 days. The “Grass Roots” tour, which is focused on meetings with former and current football coaches and players, started in Southern California and has moved through Northern California, Oregon, and Washington and into southwestern Canada.
Stephen White, President of CoMedia and Executive Director of American Football Alumni, stated, “The opportunity to meet face to face with those individuals who are the core of our audience has confirmed over and over that the targeted 20 million former players and coaches have a strong desire to be part of what we are creating.” Mr. White added, “These first 20 days has confirmed that peer to peer selling, based on referral from friends and associates, the core of our business model, is the strongest form of marketing and will greatly accelerate the rate that we aggregate a large membership.”
American Football Alumni inked a deal the newest member of the team Coach Mike Greer, Head Coach of the Tri-Valley Ranchers. Coach Greer will be working with the American Football Alumni to create and provide the guidance for a developmental program for football players at all levels. Curtis Watts, President of American Football Alumni stated, “The developmental project is coming together very quickly and we are very excited about the opportunity to showcase our football talent development program for college and pro level players scheduled to be launched in the coming weeks.”
Executive Director Stephen White has been meeting with and hosting briefing sessions with key members of the football community including Head Coaches and Athletic Directors from programs at Universities, Colleges and High Schools in the North West. Stephen visited Canada’s British Columbia province where he met with the Commissioner of Canadian Youth Football which governs High School football in Canada. American Football Alumni plans to launch its new social networking site before the end of September with an initial invitation being offered to our current members of the www.11on11.com to become the “beta test” of the new www.11on11.com site. The site will then be opened to all who played the game shortly thereafter.
