“We are absolutely thrilled to be working with Beatrice Lee and Simone Crespi from MP’s Shanghai office. We signed an agreement back in late July and we have all been so busy with meetings and developing relationships with marketing partners, networks and sponsors in Asia and other parts of the world, we are only now having the time to announce our relationship. MP has such a strong presence in Europe, UK and now in Asia with Beatrice and Simone, a dynamic duo and working with them is an honor. We couldn’t ask for better representation in Asia. They are so effective, highly regarded, well known and respected, that even prior to signing they had identified very strategic marketing partners for Etourgolf.com and broadcasters for Foreplay Golf in China, Japan and South Korea. China has been finalized and announcement forthcoming. South Korea is in draft agreement and Japan is awaiting proposal. Entry into Asia and especially China is the most difficult but desired market for international rights holders and Beatrice and Simone have a pulse on this market. For all rights holders who would like representation in China, Simone and Beatrice are premium, they are professional and deliver first class. We look forward to a very long rewarding relationship with MP and working with Beatrice and Simone. Securing an agreement with MP provides us with an immediate entry into Asia, and provides our existing sponsors and advertisers with tremendous exposure in a market that they wouldn’t have easily obtained.” as quoted by Barbara L. Yaremko, Founder, CEO of Hole In One Pictures, Inc. and its USA subsidiary Hole In One Productions, LLC.
