The two companies are cooperating in the development of co-branded marketing, sales materials and processes to facilitate the swift integration of Pacific Sands' EcoOne system into the marketing of the Hawkeye, Barefoot, and other spa product lines for global distribution.
"We've tested the EcoOne product in side by side studies in our manufacturing facility, as well as in numerous employees' personal spas, and the positive results have been nothing short of amazing," reported Hawkeye Marketing Director, Casey Murray. "We highly recommend the use of the EcoOne system with our Hawkeye and Barefoot spas." Mr. Murray added that initial responses from their dealers have "far exceeded their expectations."
New Barefoot and Hawkeye spas sold from the factory will include as standard an EcoOne Starter Kit, which includes a suite of EcoOne products for use in setting up, cleansing, and maintaining a spa using the proven EcoOne water treatment technology. Hawkeye has launched a targeted marketing campaign aimed at their database of thousands of customers in an effort to accelerate orders and broaden immediate demand for the product.
Customized, co-branded dealer retail starter kits are now being sold via Hawkeye to their core dealer base of more than 100 individual outlets. Initial order dealer kit pricing ranges between $1,500 and $3,500. Numerous Hawkeye / Barefoot dealers have already been successfully set up with the product.
"At this point last year, between 50 and 70 new customers were starting on the EcoOne Spa Treatment system every month," said Pacific Sands President and CEO Michael Wynhoff. "At this point in the 2006 sales cycle, due in large part to our new partnership with Hawkeye combined with our other spa manufacturer partners, we estimate the product is now reaching between 1,600 and 1,800 new customers every month. We expect that number to continue to grow over the coming months."
Dealers and current Hawkeye / Barefoot spa owners can contact the company at (804) 231-7727 for special introductory pricing on the entire line of EcoOne products or visit www.hawkeyemfg.com.
