Swingpal, Golf Channel launch partnership

By Swingpal.com staff

Swingpal and Golf Channel recently unveiled a new partnership to provide online golf instruction under the brand name SwingFix.

Swingpal created a new website (http://swingfix.golfchannel.com/) for Golf Channel as a means to offer its consumers a destination for personalized, convenient and affordable online golf lessons.

Promotion of the SwingFix service began Tuesday afternoon on GolfChannel.com, GolfInstruction.com and GolfNow.com.

Swingpal has recruited and trained a roster of top teaching professionals for SwingFix, which will provide individual lessons and lesson packages to golfers of all ages and ability levels.

The instructors available on both Swingpal and SwingFix all have proven histories of providing top-notch instruction and were added only by invitation. Additionally, they represent geographic areas throughout the country.

Nearly 50 highly qualified teaching professionals are currently available to provide lessons, more are actively involved in the requisite Swingpal training process and additional instructors will continue to be added in the weeks and months ahead.

As is the case on Swingpal, with each SwingFix lesson, customers will be able to choose the instructor they would like to work with. They will receive a voice-over video analysis of their golf swing and video swing tips to help them correct the mistakes they’re making. A messaging platform is also available, enabling each student to communicate with their teaching professional of their choice.

“Swingpal and SwingFix are the perfect solution for golfers who want to improve their games but don’t have time for traditional lessons,” Swingpal founder and CEO Mike Comegna said. “Today’s busy consumers are more tech-savvy than ever. We can deliver personalized lessons on their schedule, whether that’s at two in the morning or the middle of the day.”

For more information about Swingpal or SwingFix, send an email to support@swingpal.com.

For professionals who would like to make inquiries about becoming part of the Swingpal instructor network, email Vikki Vanderpool at vvanderpool@swingpal.com.
