Castle Pines, CO (August 25, 2014) How well are golf courses managed? National survey by JJKeegan+ provides some stunning insights.
JJKeegan+ during August completed a Strategic Planning survey measuring how effectively golf courses are managed. The results as to the quality of golf course management are disappointing but not surprising. Here are some of the quick findings:
- 35% are operating without a current business plan
- 76% believe that their market is oversupplied
- 73% don’t engage in customer relationship management
- 88% never have their golf course secret shopped
- 82% rarely engage in customer surveys
The survey demonstrated that golf course operators complain about uncontrollable factors to mask their culpability for being poor operators. Few within the industry accept personal responsibility for the substandard performance of their facilities.
Golf course managers forget that they are in the service industry entertaining people.
During the past 12 months, JJKeegan+ has developed, vetted and implemented on over 40 golf courses a golf management system consisting of 7 steps and 21 templates. The result is that the probability of your success in creating value for golfers on a foundation that optimizes the financial performance of a golf course is greatly enhanced.
If your golf course is not meeting its financial goals, we suggest participating in JJKeegan+’s fall lecture series which we are confident will dramatically boost your 2015 operating results. Here are the highlights of what you will receive from enrolling in the Fall Webinar series:

The value of this information exceeds $25,000. Your investment is $7,500 with a deposit of $3,750 to secure your position in the class. If you are not satisfied with the results, the balance of $3,750 will be waived. Upon the completion of the eight Webinar presentations, we will have created together a 2015 strategic plan.
