Fred Couples to Represent MyGlobalTalk? Mobile Phone Application on PGA Tour
ATLANTA, GEORGIA – February 9, 2009 – 2009 Presidents Cup Captain and former Masters Champion Fred Couples is finally using the phone. Couples entered into a world-wide endorsement agreement with i2Telecom International, Inc. (“i2Telecom®”) (OTCBB: ITUI), a leading developer of award-winning patented and innovative high-quality mobile applications and services, to represent the company’s MyGlobalTalk™ mobile phone products and services.
MyGlobalTalk™ is a revolutionary new program that easily can be downloaded to any mobile smartphone and used by any mobile phone, allowing users to save up to 94 percent on international phone calls. It provides exceptional quality service that works wherever mobile service is available with no echoes or delays. The software download is free, and the service is strictly pay-as-you-go, requiring no connection fees, no contracts, no call minimums or data plans.
Couples, one of the most popular players on the PGA Tour, will endorse i2Telecom and its patented and patent-pending technologies in part through the Company’s MyGlobalTalk™ Trademark/Logo, which will appear on Couples’ golf shirts. He will also serve as a spokesperson for, and render consulting and other personal services to, i2Telecom International.
“I travel a lot. I’ve got friends and people I need to contact all over the globe, and honestly, I am not as good at staying in touch as I should be,” said Couples. “But, MyGlobalTalk™ is so easy to use and saves me so much, it’s even got me using the phone now.”
“Golf is the perfect platform to introduce our technology. Golfers tend to travel more than the general population, and so as a group, they are acutely aware of the value MyGlobalTalk™ represents. We are delighted that Fred Couples, a five-time Ryder Cup member, has agreed to endorse MyGlobalTalk™ across a wide variety of venues that will showcase the cost-saving and user-friendly benefits of our technology to millions of potential customers,” noted Paul Arena, Chief Executive Officer of i2Telecom International, Inc. “Fred is widely respected within the professional golf community and among sports fans in general. We are confident that his association with i2Telecom will significantly broaden the awareness of MyGlobalTalk™ in the marketplace.”
Further details regarding upcoming promotional events and programs will be announced in the coming weeks.
