Find the Green : A Guide to Golf Management

Beginners are the fresh new life blood to the golfing community. But are we doing everything we can to help them find the game?

I know we all offer a Get Golf Ready class or two but are we truly dedicated to getting new people to the game?

This episode we cover a lot of different things that we need to focus on to clear away those hurdles that can hinder a beginners path to the game.

Today, we talk about keeping people safe on the course when it is 90-100 degrees out there.

Unfortunately, there are some places that do not find this a problem until it is too late.

We will give 4 ways (well, more like 6-10) to keep them cool and safe during this sweltering time of the year.

Today we talk about researching your customer traits.

By identifying 4 or 5 customer demographics and determining other businesses that cater to them, you can go to some of these businesses and find out some of the things that they are doing to build relationships with them and keep them coming back. 

Identifying different groups that you would like to focus on is only the first step. Determining how you can appeal to their needs is where the relationship can grow.

THE CHALLENGE: 

Identify 4-5 groups of people that you would like to better connect with. 

Find 3-4 businesses that cater to each of these groups.

Pick 2 businesses from each group and go to them and experience what the business has to offer. (Chucky Cheese can be one!)

Notice how they use their experience to build the relationship and continue it over a long period of time. (Lifetime Value of the Customer)

Apply some of these things to your golf facility.

Then email your results at [email protected]

I can't wait to hear some of the results!

This episode is a secret episode. Nah, but it is something that very few professionals think through. (in all businesses!) So, today we are talking about a little know thing...the importance of understanding your UNIQUE SELLING PROPOSITION and determining what it is for EVERY TRANSACTION at your facility. 

This is a short episode but it gives you enough to get you thinking about what you need to do at your facility to make sure that every transaction is for the customers benefit.

Today, we are going to talk about the benefit of working on your game.

There are many reasons to work on your game but there are three we are going to cover.

Grow your Lesson Book

Hitting balls on the range can produce a lot of lessons if what you are doing out there is something that people want to do themselves. If you can't hit the ball, there is a good chance they do not want to learn from you. PRACTICE.

Respect for your Skill and Dedication

By showing your dedication to your game, people will want to be a part of it. Most will ask you what you do to get to the level that you are at. This can lead to great things.

Networking

Golf will lead to meeting people. Whether it is other professionals that are playing in section events or members that ask you to play with them on a Thursday. These opportunities happen more often, the better player that you are. Take advantage of the resources you have and get better at the game.
