ORLANDO, Fla. (May 2, 2008) – KICKgen.com, the Orlando based firm that staked its claim to a key share of the $3 billion U.S. martial arts industry last year with the launch of its high-powered special network for martial arts enthusiasts, is partnering with the National Association of Professional Martial Artists (NAMPA) to host KICKgen Affiliated Schools, an online brand to promote martial arts schools nationwide.
Tracy McCoy, chief operating officer at KICKgen.com, said the online community has exceeded all expectations so far, registering more than 1400 members.
“KICKgen Affiliated Schools is a proprietary product –– an online school that is much more than a simple listing or an online brochure, and is located within the KICKgen.com community,” McCoy said.
McCoy said KICKgen Affiliated Schools provide martial arts school owners with a wide range of professional branding and promotional tools to grow their schools and maintain high tech professional standards. One of the first modules which includes a 60-day membership in the NAPMA Maximum Impact Program for all KICKgen Affiliated School owners –– led to the KICKgen.com NAMPA partnership, McCoy said.
KICKgen.com is a client company of the University of Central Florida Incubation Program.
