* The Big 6 with... KINeSYS
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Who - Who
are you?
Jeff & Josie Kletter founded & started KINeSYS in 1993, with
its official launch at the XV Commonwealth Games in Victoria,
BC, Canada. Started working in the US in 2000 and now opened a new
USA office in Northern California: 150 Bellam Blvd., #270, San Rafael,
CA 94901 Ph. 415-453-0747 Fax. 415-453-0780. www.kinesys.com,
jeff@kinesys.com or josie@kinesys.com.
2. What - What
product/service do you provide to the golf community?
KINeSYS is a line of personal care products designed for the active
individual. The line of Oil free/ Alcohol free, water & sweat
resistant sunscreens has been very well received in the golf community
for the simple reason that you dont have to get product on your
hands to effect the grip and even if you do get it on your hands it
dries and doesnt leave a greasy/ oily film like other products.
We also have an Analgesic (muscle balm) that is also in a hands free
application and is the strongest of its kind. Many golfer with
lower or upper back pain have enjoyed the relief it provides.
3. How - How
does it work?
The products use the highest quality ingredients that are recommended
by Dermatologists world wide. The Sunscreen spray is applied like
spray painting. A light even coat on the skin will protect individuals
from 2 to 5 hours, depending on their skin tone. The Muscle balm comes
in an underarm deodorant looking container, so the product doesnt
have to get on your hands and uses the highest combination of ingredients
allowed before going prescription.
4. Where - Where
do you sell your product? Only in US, certain areas in US, worldwide,
etc. KINeSYS products started selling products in 1994 and are across
Canada. In 1999 KINeSYS products were being shipped into Golf accounts
in the US. KINeSYS products started selling on the West Coast from
WA, OR, CA and Colorado and are available in Pro-shops (Golf &
Tennis), Sporting Goods accounts (Sport Chalet & GI Joes),
High end Spas & Hotel (ie. St. Regis & Four Seasons) and Salons.
KINeSYS products are also sold in select accounts in Australia, NZ
and Singapore.
5. When - When
did you begin, and how long have you been in business?
KINeSYS products have been sold since August 1994. The Company started
in January 1993.
6. Why - Why
should someone purchase your product over your competitions?
KINeSYS Sunscreen are the ONLY Oil Free & Alcohol Free sprays.
There are other sprays on the market but either they are cream based,
so you have to rub them in or Alcohol based so they dry quickly but
they also dry the skin. All KINeSYS products are UVA & UVB broad
spectrum protectants.
If you'd like to participate in "The Big 6", and have you're
