The Golf Academy Network Association™ has been established to
provide golf instructional destinations to golfers traveling throughout the U.S. Much like
golf courses that utilize a reciprocal system, this network is designed to do
the same for golf academies in an effort to drive customers to your business
when in your area; ie business travel, vacation etc.
There are hundreds
if not thousands of small golf schools/academies around the country owned and
operated by professionals, instructors and business entrepreneurs that cater to
a relatively small audience and by establishing a network of academies it will
provide a platform to showcase your “GANA™ Academy” to a wider audience.
In addition, the
respective clients/students of all participating GANA™ members will become part
of a nationwide family of establishments and will add instant value to the
perks each academy already offers.
How it works:
To be a member of
the GANA™ you must provide the following:
- Minimum of a
10% discount on services offered to anyone visiting your facility who are
clients/students from a participating GANA™ facility.
- Provide
a membership card to your students so as to be presented at participating
facilities.
- Some %
of savings with at least ONE local golf course that you are affiliated with in
your area.
- Provide
at least 1 person (and contact info) as a point of contact at your facility
that will be kept current on all GANA™ activity.
Like many small
businesses, Golf Academies face the same hurdles in trying to gain exposure as
well as create effective marketing and advertising. By establishing the Golf
Academy Network Association™ our goal is to build a strong network of reputable
golf teaching facilities that can feed off one another as well as help one
another grow while at the same time growing the game of golf!
Cost to join:
$49.99 annually

receive as a member:
