Reach Messaging to Expand Into "Physical Fitness" Market With Launch of New Mobile App
May 05 2011 - 8:00AM
Reach Messaging Inc. (OTCBB:RCMH), a leading
developer of industry specific mobile phone application and
platform technology, today announced the Company will be launching
a Physical Fitness App through which "CrossFit" athletes can
communicate, challenge and compete with one another. The app will
be available on the iPhone and Droid upon release, which the
Company anticipates will be by the end of May.
CrossFit is a strength and conditioning brand that combines
weightlifting, sprinting, and gymnastics and has approximately
2,500 affiliate gyms worldwide. This represents the first app to be
launched by Reach Messaging in the Physical Fitness vertical and
will fall under the Company's "Lifestyle" division along with
celebrity mobile applications.
The mobile app itself will be a comprehensive tool designed
specifically for the CrossFit athlete and include all the necessary
tools for CrossFit such as a timer, list of CrossFit specific
exercises to reference, Workout of the Day (WOD) tracker, and the
ability to locate the nearest CrossFit affiliate gym. Additionally,
the app will have a unique feature that allows CrossFit athletes
all over the world to challenge other users, friends or random
opponents to a specific workout. The user being challenged will be
notified via push notification
"The launch of this application will be another first for Reach
Messaging as we can now add the 'Physical Fitness' vertical to our
growing Lifestyle division which continues expanding into new
mobile app markets where we see significant revenue opportunities.
We believe this app has the potential to take off very quickly for
two main reasons. First, the CrossFit brand, lifestyle and
affiliate base all increasing in popularity and secondly, our
target demographic here is very competitive and this app gives them
a unique way to challenge and compete with each other quicker and
more efficiently than ever before," commented Shane Gau, CEO of
Reach Messaging.
