Warren Schmidt named director of sales for GolfStyles Philadelphia

Washington, D.C. - The GolfStyles magazine group announced that Warren Schmidt has been named Director of Sales for GolfStyles Philadelphia. Golfstyles, the leading regional golf magazine in the country, includes GolfStyles Washington, GolfStyles Philadelphia, GolfStyles Boston, GolfStyles New Jersey, GolfStyles Ohio and GolfStyles Atlanta. Schmidt, a veteran of 11 years of experience in the golf industry, has served as director of sales for other publications in the Philadelphia area. His promotion was announced by GolfStyles publisher Michael Keating.

"Our goal is to put together the finest management team in the country," said Keating, who has overseen the rapid expansion of the magazine that began as Washington Golf Monthly. We feel that the addition of Warren Schmidt is a step in that direction.

Warren brings a wealth of experience in golf advertising, as well as a multitude of contacts in the Philadelphia region. His immediate mission is to go out and meet with anyone interested in our magazines, explain our mission and service their advertising needs.

Schmidt will work in close conjunction with Tony Leodora, Associate Publisher/Editor of GolfStyles Philadelphia. His base of operation is Chestnut Hill, PA.

"This was a great opportunity for me," said Schmidt, who has established a strong reputation throughout Philadelphia's four-state region. GolfStyles is the fastest rising star in the golf industry and it is fun to be part of the team. I look forward to working with a very talented group of people in this effort.

GolfStyles is the third-largest golf magazine in the country, with a circulation of more than 310,000 per issue. The magazine is published in all six regions nine times per year.
