San Luis Obispo, Calf., Oct. 9, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LeftLane Sports, the largest members-only e-commerce company in the Sporting Goods industry, has surpassed 6 million members. The company says that it has also exceeded its growth plan for the first three quarters of 2014 and is on pace for a record-breaking holiday season.
"We are very proud of our success thus far in 2014. Through hyper-targeted marketing efforts, strategic partnerships, and massive viral referrals, we doubled our membership in the past 18 months," said Erik Fialho, the retailer's Chief Strategy Officer.
Since its launch in 2009, LeftLane Sports has become a destination for endurance, outdoor, and action sports enthusiasts due to its continued dedication to its members. The retailer has created an exceptional blend of curated daily sales and year-round selection of the most coveted footwear, apparel, and gear. Enthusiasts have responded in droves, making LeftLane Sports one of the fastest growing members-only ecommerce sites in the sporting goods industry.
"As a company, we are dedicated to our members. We listen to our members and act quickly on what they want," continued Fialho. The company's recent launch of the LeftLane Sports Guarantees (which offers a 90 day return policy, free returns, lowest price guarantee, 14-day price drop guarantee, product integrity guarantee, and lost package protection) has clearly demonstrated to its members that the company stands behind its promise of the "Gear You need, Prices You Want, and Service You Deserve." The LeftLane Sports Guarantees far exceed the programs of most competitors in the sporting goods industry, especially typical flash sale and daily deal sites.
LeftLane Sports went on to mention that it is anticipating its largest quarter in company history. "We are prepped for a tremendous holiday season. We have some very exciting programs and new features to enhance our members' shopping experience that will be live just in time for the critical shopping period. We have also teamed up with some of our key brands to bring an exclusive offering of products to our members," continued Fialho. The company stated that some of its premier brands have stepped up to offer LeftLane Sports members an assortment of products and promotions that will not be available at any other retailers this holiday.
