Former American Idol finalist and current country music recording artist Danny Gokey has signed a two-year marketing agreement with Wisconsin Vision, the state’s largest independently owned optical company. For Gokey, known for his passion for eye wear, the signing is his first long-term endorsement deal and his first with a Wisconsin-based business. The agreement is Wisconsin Vision’s largest-ever marketing investment and first use of a celebrity spokesperson.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Under the agreement, Gokey will wear up to 60 pairs of Wisconsin Vision glasses, be featured in Wisconsin Vision Milwaukee-area marketing campaigns including television and outdoor advertising and social media, and make personal in-store appearances. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The company’s first television commercial and outdoor ads featuring Danny Gokey will appear in May. The Wisconsin Vision website will also feature documentary-style videos featuring Gokey.
\nDanny Gokey was the third runner up on American Idol, season 8, and captured viewer’s hearts with the story of his late wife, Sophia. Gokey released his debut album, My Best Days<\/em>, last week.
