We've found that Chronogolf courses using data and tools found directly in the golf management software get the basics right:
1. Comprehensive inventory management
2. Dynamic employees
3. Omnichannel environments
4. Targeted marketing
5. Saving time
1. Get better at buying your inventory.
The best golf POS helps provides key information about your inventory movements, including:
A list of total current assets in your store
Details on your sales, including:
Sales by any time period (day, month, year, & trends over time)
Sales by any category (such as department, classification)
Sales by vendors
Profits by item, vendor and category
Top and worst performing items and categories in your store
“It’s very important to look at sales by month for at least an entire year, even two. This will help you visualize when you need product, and when you need to get out.”
- Paul Erickson, Senior Vice-president of Client Services at RMSA Retail Solutions
When should I reorder? And how much?
With the best golf pos in the industry, you can ensure you never run out of inventory, without having to store excess stock. Built-in reports ensure that you have access to the quantity on hand for all your inventory.
When should I take action on slow-moving inventory?
Cash flow remains a key issue for golf course managers, big or small. When cash flow suffers, pro shop managers can see good sales but will struggle to pay their bills on time, ultimately hurting vendor relations and potentially holding back new stock orders and growth.
2. Develop a well-informed team
More and more, customers are research online, then arrive at the pro shop expecting a fully informed golf professional to assist them with their purchase. Several studies have shown that golfers are “showrooming”, that is, researching online then purchasing at the pro shop. One Deloitte study showed 70% of customers will look you up online before coming to you. To compete with big box stores and online giants, pro shops need to differentiate themselves by creating an in-store experience that delights customers and keeps them coming back.
Chronogolf provides many features that help set you apart from the crowd. High on the list is quick access to detailed product information for staff members. With data and images at their fingertips, available on an iPad, your staff can be anywhere with a customer, looking up product information on the golf POS such as:
Whether an item is in stock, and in what sizes and colors
Associated items to help upsell or suggest alternatives, by tapping on different categories and tags already set up in the system
3. Personalize interactions with your customers
An important way pro shop owners can compete with bigger retailers is on service. Three out of four consumers in the US said in a recent survey that they spent more money with a company when they had a positive customer service experience. You can create an outstanding customer experience for your customers by personalizing your interactions with them.
With almost two-thirds of consumers researching potential purchases online before coming into the store, it’s more critical than ever for a golf course to have an online presence. While online sales are still relatively low — only 7% of all retail sales in the US and 13% in the UK — customers are overwhelmingly looking you up before completing the transaction in your pro shop.
Golf courses have been slow to adopt omnichannel environments, primarily because of the complexity of managing multiple channels. But this is changing. Many now have online stores and booking. And over one-quarter expect revenues from their online store to increase by more than 20% in the next year.
