Golf Course Marketing Has Changed

April 28, 2018

Golf course marketing has changed! Private club marketing has changed! Times have changed and now its time that you as the owner, general manager or board member realize that the old way of golf advertising or golf marketing is no longer valid to generate additional golfers and members. It is time to look at what is really working in our technology age and be able to track our results. Any good golf marketing expert will tell you that what gets measured accurately, improves. The problem is that most golf courses or clubs dont know have a Golf Course Marketing. Plan and for sure dont know how to track their ROI. Thats about to change.

Understanding that most daily fee courses or private country clubs are working from a limited budget or in some cases no budget at all, it is imperative to make sure that every dollar is accounted for and you can verify Return on Investment. That way, you can determine what is working and what is not and spend more time on what is working and less on what is not. You will also be able to go to all decision makers and show proven results and feel confident that your golf club marketing is heading in the right direction.

What I am talking about is Internet Marketing for courses and clubs. This is the missing link for most golf marketing programs. What specifically am I talking about? #1) Having a marketing plan. Most clubs dont have one and wing their efforts day to day. Create one that is simple, cost – effective, consistent and measurable. #2) TRAFFIC!! Everything starts with traffic. Generating more online traffic to your website using strategies like SEO, PPC, Blogging, Facebook or educational article and video marketing. #3) Capturing lead information while they are on your site but also taking advantage of the traffic already at your course using offline email capture strategies with your staff . #4) Getting reviews and testimonials from your happy golfers and members and posting them online for the world to see. #5) Asking for referrals from your happy golfers and members.

Make The Most Of The Marketing Mix

April 23, 2018

Business administration involves the creation of a road map that outlines the specific goals that the business is working to achieve and targeted benchmarks for when those goals will be reached. By constructing a business and marketing plan companies develop strategies for reaching their goals in a timely manner. Experts in business recommend that ten percent of the budgeted operating expenses for the business be spent on marketing.

Because customers are the lifeblood of any business how the allocated dollars are spent on marketing can make a significant difference to the bottom line revenues that a company generates. Return on investment is essential for any business and finding marketing channels that will give returns above what is spent is the goal of the marketing department. The challenge for marketing directors comes in finding the right channel to put marketing dollars into and effectively creating a campaign for the selected channels that will give the highest returns.

The marketing mix is a term used to describe the combination of different channels that are to be used by the company to attract new business and increase customer retention. Within the marketing mix the director and his or her team divide the budget and make allocations for where, when and how the marketing dollars will be spent. Some channels may receive more money than others depending upon the cost of entry to the marketing channel and the effectiveness of that channel in returning dividends through sales to consumers.
