We have all experienced a boom over the last 18 months. We must all act together to preserve the new opportunity for the golf industry.

| Disney World would fail if attention wasn’t paid to the customer experience and the excitement and maintenance of the rides.
A hospital would collapse into chaos if the front desk and scheduling wasn’t operated to the highest standards and the equipment maintained to the highest level.
What is often described as “member experience” to describe the quality of service and presentation of clubhouse facilities and the golf course, is just as important to your golf business. The customer, when they arrive, should have a great experience.
But what is the “member experience” of someone who doesn’t come and play very often?
The NGF have expanded the definition of “member experience”. They’ve included measures that take us beyond “waiting” for our customers to arrive at our turnstile. They believe a good member experience requires us to proactively: |
a) Inspire golfers to invest in improvement with a professional.
b) Connect golfers to our professionals.
c) Have our professionals create more events targeting the less skilled to influence their playing experience. |
That definition requires us to care as much about the golfer as a human being as it requires us to make sure that when they arrive, we have a slick and smooth operation at a great golf club.
David Pillsbury’s quote yesterday (if you missed it, read it now) promotes using golf professionals to proactively “care for our patients”.
If both the NGF and David Pillsbury are saying the same thing, then there must be a reason to act. |
