Addington Palace Golf Club

As a top-tier London club with rolling monthly renewals, Addington Palace didn’t struggle with demand — but wanted a more proactive approach to maintain steady growth and offset natural churn.

Bidston Golf Club
Challenge:
Bidston Golf Club were financially in a tricky spot. Membership had dropped to just 230, cashflow was tight, and the club was in talks with the bank about staying open. Traditional marketing efforts had failed to move the needle, and the team needed a new approach to survive.
Solution:
GolfRep introduced a full growth system - combining targeted advertising, automated lead follow-up, and data-driven nurture flows. Within two years, Bidston more than doubled its membership base, added over £230,000 in recurring revenue, and rebuilt its reputation both locally and online.

Downes Crediton Golf Club
Challenge:
Membership numbers were falling fast. After years of trying everything — even bus shelter ads — the club had lost confidence in marketing altogether.
Solution:
In December 2024, GolfRep launched a 15-for-12 membership campaign using our Fully Booked Blueprint. Within three months, 75 new full-paying members joined, adding over £63,000 in annual revenue and 550 local golfers to the club’s database.

Macdonald Hotels & Resorts
Challenge:
Macdonald Hotels & Resorts were already investing heavily in ad spend across their group but lacked the systems to capture, nurture, and convert leads effectively. Without a CRM or automated follow-up process, thousands of potential members were slipping through the cracks.
Solution:
GolfRep implemented a complete growth system across five Macdonald golf sites, integrating CRM, AI-driven follow-ups, and automated nurture sequences. Within eight weeks, 118 new trial members joined, and the group gained full visibility and control of their marketing pipeline.

Ryton Golf Club
Challenge:
A small, community golf club surrounded by 12 competitors, Ryton struggled with visibility — “people just don’t know we’re here."
Solution:
GolfRep launched a hyper-local campaign to increase awareness, attract new members, and drive secondary revenue through open days and events. Within 45 days, 45 new members joined, generating over £20,000 from only £327 in ad spend.

The Herefordshire Golf Club
Challenge:
The club relied on flyers and word-of-mouth to drive memberships, but results had plateaued — especially in winter when conversions are usually low.
Solution:
GolfRep deployed its growth system to target local golfers with precision campaigns, supported by automated follow-ups and nurture emails. Despite launching during winter, 24 members joined within six weeks, generating £4,776 from just £508 in ad spend — a 9.4x return — and over 100 leads entered the club’s pipeline.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What makes GolfRep different from other marketing agencies?
Most agencies run ads and call it marketing. We build systems that drive measurable growth. Every campaign is tailored for golf clubs - from the targeting and creative to the follow-up and conversion tracking. We don’t hand you leads and disappear; we give you a complete system that fills your pipeline and strengthens your brand long-term.
How quickly can we expect to gain traction?
Once campaigns go live, clubs usually see new enquiries coming through within the first few hours. But the real value isn’t in quick spikes - it’s in the foundation we build. The GolfRep system compounds over time, creating predictable lead flow and a database that keeps producing results month after month.
How much input will our team need to provide?
Minimal. We manage the setup, creative, campaign optimisation, and automation. Your team simply needs to handle warm and hot conversations or membership visits. We built this system to give you leverage - not more admin.
What happens if the system doesn’t perform for us?
That’s exactly why we back every partnership with our Risk-Free Guarantee. If we don’t generate enough to cover our costs, we refund the shortfall. It means your club can grow with complete confidence - zero downside, full transparency.
What happens on the first call?
It’s an open, strategic conversation - not a sales pitch. We’ll look at your current setup, goals, and challenges, then map out what your growth system could look like. If we’re confident we can help, we’ll show you exactly how. If not, we’ll tell you straight.
