San Francisco-based RMG Networks and REACH Sports Marketing Group, Eden Prairie, Minnesota, have announced a partnership allowing RMG to bundle both companies’ health club media assets and increasing the scale of RMG’s Fitness Entertainment Network to 900 clubs and 17 million monthly viewers.

This new inventory also allows RMG to offer brands a localized health club media solution that is targetable by DMA.

“This new partnership with REACH Sports Marketing Group substantially increases the size of RMG’s footprint in the health club media space,” says David Bruce, executive vice-president, media products and partnerships, RMG Networks. “The combined network allows us to deliver over 17 million monthly viewers. Advertisers have repeatedly asked for a health club media product that could be targeted regionally or by DMA and this partnership allows us to provide that.”

Marc Kline, REACH co-founder, naturally happy with the partnership, says, “Like RMG’s Fitness Entertainment Network, the REACH Network engages club members with full sight, sound and motion ad units.”
