When is a Member Program not for Members?

15/9/2017

These days you hear a lot about segmentation, and one of Quick18’s key assets are powerful segmentation capabilities. if you’re not sure how, take a look at Customer Groups and see what segments you can develop by playing with the all-powerful filters. Or ask us!

But one other tool on board can be a key asset in capturing segments from marketing campaigns: Member Programs.

Quick18’s Member Programs were designed to allow you to manage your members (duh!), but some courses have also used them for marketing campaigns. When you do that Groupon deal, or run an ad on  a local radio station, your success is first measured in terms of how many people got on board: how many vouchers sold, or rounds played. But real success comes from getting those people back for another round, another time.

Driving revenue depends on measuring your results

​We often describe Quick18 as a revenue tool, not a booking platform. We believe that Quick18 should help you drive your revenue, and there are a range of tools on board designed to do just that.

But tools aren't the answer on their own - you need a strategy, and you need to measure your results. In terms of developing a price strategy, we're always happy to help and Quick18 has a role at the upcoming Golf Business Forum to talk about developing price strategies.

So let's talk measurement!

Quick18 has many reports on board, and today we're looking at the PURRA report - no, it's not milk, it's Price, Utilisation, Rounds and Revenue & Advance days. PURRA takes the key information you need to know and puts it in one report. Take a look here (we've blocked the name of the facility):

Skateboard + golf = yes please!

Further to our last post on the new Quick18 product store functionality, Sandhurst has come out with something new by selling golf with the GolfBoard experience, for some select times in January. We're fans of the Sandhurst marketing execution, always with a good visual email and  landing page on their own site (check it here), and here they have used our Product Store to sell rounds with the Golf Board. Looks like fun to us!

Sandhurst's requirements were very specific, and with limited tee time availability they chose to package up groups of 4 and sell them via the Store rather than via a booking engine. We love to see courses trying something new, keep it up guys!

Cart management update

14/8/2015

Good news, another improvement to cart fleet management. A couple of weeks back we talked through the options of running a blended rate vs treating carts as an “add-on”. Under either approach you will have customers who decide on check-in that they want a cart, or perhaps no longer want a cart.

There is a great solution for this: on check-in you have the option of changing a walking rate to a cart rate, or vice versa. When you start the check-in process you can select Walk / Cart. This now overrides whatever the rate is (cart or not) and also counts carts for the inventory tracking:
You can also check in some players with “cart” selected, complete the check-in, then check-in the remaining players at the “walk” rate. The booking will then record two people in a cart (1 cart) and two people walking:
Picture
Note that if you are tracking your cart revenue through Quick18 this may not work for you, as it will not record the revenue. For example, by changing a blended cart-rate booking to a walking booking, the revenue recorded does not change. However, for most courses the POS tracks revenue so this won’t be an issue. 

Let us know if this works for you, feedback always welcome.

Cart bookings: 2 ways to drive success

1/8/2015

Quick18 sells carts by the seat, which gives you an edge, as well as some choice. We all know carts are a great revenue source, but do you really work the fleet hard enough? Like many decisions we make, it’s about having a strategy and the right tools to deliver on that strategy.

Quick18 now offers the option of carts as an add-on, or as a blended rate. For those of you currently running a blended golf & cart rate, and those of you considering which way to go, today’s note sets out two different approaches, each with merit.

But first, some definitions...

OK sure, I like it - but how much is it? Price matters!

25/6/2015

Ever asked that question in an old African or Middle Eastern market? As a young traveller I got comprehensively fleeced in Morocco and loved every minute of it. Firstly, no prices are shown. Therefore, if you asked for the price it meant you had decided to buy - next came the haggling stage. If you proposed a price you had to honour it. No backing away. Lastly, you knew the price you agreed to was way more than a local would pay. But that was after 45 minutes, two glasses of mint tea, and a dinner invitation so who cares, right?

The point is this - price is a fluid concept. In the retail world, price is cost plus margin. At least to start with anyway, then you start discounting as the stock doesn’t move. In the golf tee-time world we’re not dictated by cost (it’s virtually all fixed, not variable) but we are burdened by old school practices of simplistic prices based on rack-rates, and a competitive market loaded with excess supply. All bad news? Nope. Just the wrong conversation. Never mind what the other courses are doing, what does the customer want?
