Farmingdale, NY – Innoventions Enterprises, makers of the GustBuster® Umbrella, the #1 Umbrella In Golf, and SunBuster® Sport Enhancement EyewearTM (S.E.E.) reported today that they achieved record setting sales at the 2009 PGA Merchandise Show, held last week in Orlando, FL. GustBuster/SunBuster sales increased over 93% from 2008.
SunBuster’s Sport Enhancement Eyewear (S.E.E.) featuring the award-winning PuttReadersTM lens was the “buzz” of the Demo Day on Wednesday amongst PGA Teaching Professionals & buyers who attended the event. SunBuster’s “S.E.E. For Yourself” Challenge pitted their golf specific PuttReaders lens “eye-to-eye” against any other eyewear on the market. Based on the number of PuttReaders that were sold…it was obvious that SunBuster came out on top against the competition once again.
“I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical coming into the show,” said Steve Asman, President of Innoventions Enterprises. “All you hear people talk about is soft sales and a tough economy. But I’m glad we decided to support the industry and attend the show. This was far and away the best year we’ve ever had…and I’ve been attending this show for a long time. Orders were up over 90% from last year and we secured some very prestigious accounts with some of the most famous clubs and resorts in the world. It’s apparent to me that even though the economy is suffering…buyers in the golf industry are realizing that you can’t just look for the lowest price…you have to consider quality and value as well. There are some other brands out there…some of which decided to pass on attending the show. GustBuster has been the #1 Umbrella in golf for over 10 years now and we’re not going anywhere. We’ll be here to stand behind our product and we’ll continue to make and sell the finest quality product at the best possible price. We’re not going to sacrifice quality to compete with the inferior brands that are out there. Our success this year shows that people still want a quality product and they’re willing to pay for it. Based on this year’s success, we’ve already decided that we’ll be exhibiting again in 2010.”
GustBuster – The Only UN-Flippable, UN-Flappable, UN-Leakable Umbrella in the World.
The GustBuster golf umbrella comes in 3 different sizes: 58″ for women, a standard 62″ for men and a 68″ Tour size. GustBuster has a patented tear drop flow-through design that withstands winds of 55 M.P.H. or more, making it the ultimate wind umbrella. The joints and ferrule of the GustBuster are constructed of Ultra High-Density Poly-Carbonate, and won’t break or turn inside-out. The GustBuster umbrella uses nylon that is a strong 190 thread per inch blend that won’t tear, which is why it’s backed by the manufacturer with a lifetime repair or replacement warranty.
Gustbuster is the #1 and most used umbrella on the Tour. Ask any Tour Player what umbrella they want if it rains, they’ll say…GustBuster!
