Following an extremely successful PGA Merchandise Show, these hires coincide with a rapid spike in awareness for the unique opportunities presented by LINKSOUL. Showcasing the range of precisely-crafted garments created under the design direction of John Ashworth the new reps will rely on longstanding relationships in key territories, including:
• Linda Hunziker – Illinois

• John Parsons – Southeast Florida
• Tom Pope – Pacific Northwest
• Valerie Tumlinson – Northern Florida

Founded in August 2011 when Ashworth merged Linksoul with Pima Direct LLC, LINKSOUL caters exclusively to discerning specialty golf merchandisers and their customers. The two lines are inspired by the art and soul of the game of golf.
“The reception in Orlando was nothing short of electric,” says company CEO Mark Killeen. “Under the guidance of Jeff Clark and Hank Ashworth, the sales team continues to grow in quantity and quality as the marketplace embraces our concept and culture.”
“It’s an extremely exciting time to join the LINKSOUL team,” says Parsons. “The diversity of the consumer-focused LINKSOUL collection pairs perfectly with the custom-branded LINKSOUL CLUB line to offer something for every club and their clientele.”
