Fostering direct and meaningful relationships between golf clubs and their members is at the heart of what we do at GolfClubSubs. We've designed our platform to promote this connection and to ensure that clubs can have more personalised interactions, that truly resonate, with your members.
We do this in many ways.
Firstly, the powerful GolfClubSubs dashboard pulls the club closer to your members by providing all the key data that you need around membership applications, renewals, categories, demographics, fees and more. By getting to know your members better, you can tailor higher-quality marketing initiatives and craft personalised messages and offerings that truly appeal to them. We make this even easier by integrating GolfClubSubs with the email and marketing automation platform Mailchimp.
GolfClubSubs also enables clubs to retain full control over the relationship with your members. There is no need to hand over this relationship to loan providers or outsourcers when members wish to pay their membership via monthly instalments. Instead, the GolfClubSubs platform includes a powerful smart instalment module for offering a range of monthly payment plans and automating the payment collection, reminders and reporting, giving the club a more streamlined and intimate process.
Additionally, we understand the power of brand identity in creating a sense of belonging and community among your members. Seeing your logo not just on your club's facilities, but also on their membership management platform, will strengthen their connection with your club and enhance their sense of community.
Leverage the GolfClubSubs platform to foster stronger relationships with your members, enhance your marketing efforts, and build a vibrant and cohesive club community.
“The MailChimp integration is also brilliant for keeping our MailChimp mailing list up to date so no member misses our weekly club updates.”

CEO & Lead Developer
"I created GolfClubSubs for 2 reasons. Firstly, as a keen golfer and software developer it frustrated me that my own golf club was still sending out paper renewal letters in the post, meaning I had to drive up to the club to make my annual subs payment when everything else I could handle on my phone.
The second reason was closer to home as my club didn't offer an affordable way for me to spread the cost over the year, which became a priority when my second child came into the picture! They said it would be too much admin, so I decided to solve the admin headache both for my club and for myself as the member / user.
Each day as a developer is about solving problems and building something that wasn't there before. I have loved seeing the direct impact of our work and helping golf clubs across the UK & Ireland develop and grow their membership base."
My LinkedIn Profile
Sales & Account Manager
My golf journey has been interesting to say the least, with most of it documented on my YouTube channel. I have shot a 58 on a simulator and remain at the time of writing this The Open champion for 2022 yet I have never broken 80 outdoors, much to the amusement of those around me! I freely admit to being a golf addict and as a right handed golfer who currently putts left handed with a broomstick putter I am certainly not your typical golfer.
Opening up access to the game of golf is something I have always been passionate about and to combine my experience from 18+ years of IT sales and account management with my passion for golf is a very natural, and exciting step for me. I will continually strive to understand your needs and to be relied upon to look after your best interest at all times."

"I'm more of a beginner golfer and looking forward to getting into it more. Having grown up in a golfing family I can see how much a club means to the members and I love being part of making that member - club relationship work for our clients.
My role in HR and Legal involves making our workplace as productive and pleasant as possible. It's a great feeling to know I've made a positive impact on someone's day."
