Heartland Golf Marketing was formed to provide marketing services to golf courses throughout the Midwest United States. As an avid golfer, I'm rarely marketed to by golf courses. I believe that most courses are simply following, "the way it's always been done" with newspaper coupons or perhaps an insert in the "money mailer" coupon packs we often toss into the circular file. Heartland Golf Marketing will provide a cost effective solution that courses will find it "easy to say yes to".
We're providing a platform for golf courses to:
- Get consistently more rounds played during the courses "slower" times of the week/year.
- Build a tighter and more loyal relationship with their players.
- Attract golfers from surrounding areas to their courses.
- Deliver news and course information to their client base consistently and reliably.
We're delivering the platform using technology including a blog, email, RSS feeds, and SMS (text messages).
We're starting this business out of desire...the desire to see golf courses do better and delivery their marketing and branding messages consistently to those who crave it. We're located in Des Moines Iowa so the focus for now will be Iowa Golf Courses in or near the metro Des Moines area. If that goes well, we'll continue through the state of Iowa...and then points beyond.
Results are the only things that matter to businesses and we intend to simply deliver them. We're not working from a from a proven formula and we're learning along the way. If you'll be flexible and help us learn what works, we'll keep the ship on course and build a small business that creates value for Heartland golf courses and golfers....all the while putting a few shekels in our pockets along the way.
Welcome to Heartland Golf Marketing.
Sincerely,
Doug Mitchell
