Direct Mail Golf Marketing

Direct mail is absolutely, hands down, unequivocally, the very best medium for marketing your golf property. There is no better medium available when it comes to profiling your casual and core golfers through demographics and psychographics than that of purchasing or renting quality lists based on the golfers buying and spending habits, as well as their geographic location relative to your golf facility.

Unless you are a destination golf facility, resort golf course, etc., your prime targets (golfers) come from a twenty (20) mile radius of your golf facility. Direct mail provides you with the perfect delivery system of your desired message and brand.

Your entire focus should be on making your golf course’s name a household name for every resident within your twenty-mile radius and direct mail is the best vehicle to do that.

The only (and only one) challenge to marketing your golf property via direct mail is cost.

The bottom line in business is the bottom line. All that should matter when it comes to golf marketing (other than when it is done with dignity and integrity) is the ROI. Direct mail by far surpasses any other medium when it comes to return on investment.

Cost is actually a great thing, because with the cost of postage going up, your piece has less competition and therefor produces a greater return.
