Consumer Cellular Announces Partnership with Golf Icons for New Ambassador Program
April 17 2024 - 9:05AM
Consumer Cellular, the Most Awarded Brand for Wireless Customer
Support among Value MVNOs by J.D. Power, proudly announces its
ambassador partnership with four illustrious golf professionals:
Fred Couples, Justin
Leonard, Jerry
Kelly, and
Juli Inkster
in the brand’s new campaign, “
More Tees. Less
Fees.” These seasoned athletes epitomize resilience,
longevity, and forward-thinking — values that resonate with
Consumer Cellular's commitment to embracing life's next, best
chapter.
When so many companies only look to
young athletes as the next great thing, Consumer Cellular is
excited to introduce this new ambassador program with four golf
legends who are continuing to thrive and are looking ahead in their
careers after many years of success. Consumer Cellular's
collaboration with these golf icons resonates deeply with its
audience and core consumers, who constantly seek opportunities for
growth and fulfillment in their own lives.
As part of the ambassador program, the four golfers will
represent Consumer Cellular throughout the year, featuring in TV
campaigns, engaging social content, and wearing the Consumer
Cellular logo in competition. For Leonard, Kelly, and Couples,
their extremely active playing schedule on PGA TOUR Champions
represents their next, best chapter, offering a chance to compete
at the highest level against their peers, while Inkster uses her
expertise and experience to mentor and invest in the future of
women’s golf.
"As I continue with this next chapter of my career, teaming up
with Consumer Cellular was the perfect match. Just like my
dedication to perfecting my game, Consumer Cellular is committed to
providing fast, reliable, nationwide wireless service," says
Justin Leonard. "While I'm thankful for the
success I've achieved in my career so far, I'm looking ahead — and
I'm just getting started!"
"As much as I cherish my journey in women's golf, I am equally
passionate about what lies ahead as I mentor women in the sport.
I'm focused on paving the way for future generations of female
athletes while continuing my personal journey," says Juli Inkster.
"Together with Consumer Cellular, we're rewriting the narrative of
what it means to thrive in the later stages of a career."
Just as the golf pros continue to compete and thrive in the
golfing world, Consumer Cellular empowers customers to seize new
opportunities without constraints, reflecting the new brand
campaign, "More Tees. Less Fees." Consumer Cellular is partnering
with a generation of golfers who take more of what they want in
life (Tees) and leave behind more of what they don’t (Fees). This
reflects the company’s mission to provide reliable, affordable
wireless service by omitting many of the hidden, additional fees
that other carriers charge.
The golf ambassador program is a
natural extension of Consumer Cellular’s “Freedom Calls” brand
campaign with Ted Danson, which celebrates the freedom and joy of
life after 50. Just as these golf legends continue to compete and
thrive, Consumer Cellular empowers its customers with the freedom
to enjoy life on their terms, without unnecessary fees holding them
back.
“Our ambassadors epitomize living life
to the fullest by embracing new challenges and opportunities,” says
Ed Evans, Consumer Cellular CEO. “Whether it's Kelly's major
success post-50, Inkster's place in the World Golf Hall of Fame,
Leonard's resurgence post-50, or Couples' record-breaking
performances, they all embody the spirit of continual growth and
achievement. We’re thrilled they’re joining Consumer Cellular and
our mission to look forward to the next, best chapter in life.”
The new ambassador program campaign
and “More Tees. Less Fees.” content launches with media support
encompassing TV, digital, and print in addition to ambassador
content in digital and social channels. For more information,
