We Help Underperforming Golf Clubs Win.

KPI Golf Course Management:
A Data-Driven Methodology for Optimizing Performance

“We deploy golf course management solutions that help clubs operate sustainably and profitably, where otherwise they may fail. We believe that optimal performance means objectively evaluating what is working, what isn’t working, and to continuously prioritize highest impact activities based on facts. Operating less than optimally means missing critical growth opportunities, diminishing market share, reduced valuation, or even the club’s demise.”

PRESS RELEASE: Hampton Golf Teams Up with
Newly Formed KPI Golf Management

Jacksonville, Florida, January 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Hampton Golf, which currently lists 28 golf courses under management has joined forces with newly formed KPI Golf Management.

“When I heard that John was back in the business, I immediately reached out. There are a handful of people like John in the industry and I am really happy that we can team up and work together”, said MG Orender.

The Secret Sauce

Empathy

Fully transparent discourse and open sharing of ideas is the only way to fully understand the challenges clubs face and to evaluate every possible alternative. It is critical that we become sensitive to your situation and the ecosystem in which your club exists. If we take you on as a client, we promise to deliver value in your exclusive best interests, and without consideration for our own best interests.

Alignment

Without alignment of goals and beliefs, uninspired execution is sure to sabotage the effectiveness of any long term solutions. Achieving 100% aligned objectives is critical in developing a culture of positivity, appropriate freedom to act, and speed. Everyone must agree that subjective practices are never optimal and that improvements are necessary for us to achieve stated goals.

Objectivity

If you want to win in golf management today, we believe you need to be utterly unromantic about consumer behavior and performance. You need to observe, analyze and adjust to where the consumer actually is, and what is or isn’t working well. Data enables us to definitively prioritize highest impact activities.

Why Does KPI Golf Management Exist?

The golf industry is experiencing gentrification right now.

Rich top-end facilities are getting richer (and more expensive) while the more affordable clubs are disproportionately going out of business.

It’s a call to arms where many stand alone facilities cannot compete without engaging expert help, economies of scale, and modern day operating efficiency.

Less than optimal golf course management can mean missing critical growth opportunities, diminishing market share, reduced valuation, or even the club’s demise.

Underperforming golf clubs can compete favorably in today’s marketplace, but they have to optimize operations. It begins with with addressing the low hanging fruit in financials & workplace culture, followed by deploying specific strategies for continuous refinement, and leveraging centralized resources at scale to compete long term.

Common Questions

Why do clubs want to work with KPI?

In the golf business, we are hardwired to enjoy helping people. We enjoy what we do because ultimately we are serving a greater good – creating and saving jobs, building careers, reinvigorating entire communities, preserving historic facilities, and providing healthy environments for children and families.

When golf clubs prosper, many people benefit. When clubs struggle or go under, many more feel the impact.

Our clients enjoy working with us because we share in their beliefs in the critical importance of success. A healthy club means a healthy community, and better lives for those it touches.

We believe our skills, networks, and resources can help these community centerpieces compete and thrive. At the end of the day, people enjoy being around others who are passionate and who share common beliefs.

John Brown discusses the options that struggling and underperforming golf courses have. The first big misconception is that professional advice and exploratory conversations only come with hard sales pitches for club management contracts. This isn’t the case at all. Either way, in his 5th decade in the business, John's always got interesting things to say and value to bring.
