Do you use insights to inform marketing decisions?What do you consider when expanding into new markets?How do you quantify markets?Learn the answers to these questions (and more) in just 30 minutes from Cassandra Bausch.Cassandra is the Director of Marketing at Club Champion. Club Champion delivers tour-quality golf club fittings to high performing, and recreational golfers. Each store has more than 50,000 clubhead, shaft, and grip combinations for golfers to test. Because the company's approach is agnostic – the fitters don't favour one brand over another – players find the best combination of components. After opening 100 new Club Champion brick and mortar stores in the last five years, the company is expanding internationally.“We're always trying to pick a segment that is underserved, or isn't thought about in the grand scheme of club fitting. Women make up about 35% of the golf industry in general, but if you look at club fittings they are maybe 10-15%. So that's an underserved market. When we do market analysis, what we're looking to do is learn how to speak to that segment.” (Cassandra Bausch, Club Champion)Key discussion areas to listen for:1:08 mins. The similarities of marketing to bowling fans vs. golfers. How helpful is it for golf marketeers to be the target market?7:27 mins. 100 new Club Champion brick and mortar stores have opened in the last five years. What's the advantages and disadvantages of growing this fast?9:37 mins. How did Club Champion quantify the market opportunity five years ago? Would they assess new growth opportunities using different insights and metrics now?11:49 mins. Personalised club fitting has been available for a long time with club professionals. Why are more golfers getting fitted for clubs, and how is Club Champion capitalizing on this?14:40 mins. What difference is Club Champion seeing with international markets? And how do you change your marketing tactics to succeed in these markets?17:17 mins. When setting customer acquisition goals for a new market, does Club Champion use the same goal setting approach as in a new US state, or different?18:39 mins. Gather's Sue Shapcott conducted research for Club Champion that specifically looked at the club fitting experience for women and higher handicap golfers. How did Cassandra and the team use insights from this research to inform marketing decisions?20:57 mins. How do you track brand perception and awareness?24:25 mins. What is Cassandra's framework for taking a brand like Club Champion forward in the future? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Daniel Crawford has been one of the original Mental Mastery team members. Active in our former membership site and Facebook group.

Jake Thurm has been named one of the “Best Young Teachers in America” by Golf Digest for three consecutive years. His students will tell you why. Jake's instruction offers a unique combination of physical and mental guidance, customized for each student and informed by technology and analytics. He never gives the same lesson twice. A fundamental tenet of Jake's instruction is that no two players swing precisely alike. Because of this, he works to understand the unique biomechanics of each student. Data allows him to assess and not guess. Then, he tailors his teaching to help his students discover their most natural and effective swing. The Chicago native draws on his deep knowledge of the game as a former all-conference golfer and protégé of legendary instructor Dr. Jim Suttie, as well as from his background in clinical psychology. The result is an innovative mind-body approach that has earned accolades from PGA Tour winners, including Kevin Streelman, James Hahn, Dudley Hart, and Chip Beck. Jake has worked at over 100 PGA Tour events, including all four major championships, and appears on the Golf Channel as an expert commentator.Jake is highly regarded in Chicagoland golf circles as Midwest Director for the USA Junior National Golf Team and Nike Junior Golf Camp Director at Fresh Meadow Golf Club in Hillside. He also operates golf schools at Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont and is on the Master Staff at Club Champion in Willowbrook. Whether working with PGA pros or promising young players, Jake identifies a common trait in all his students. “They are serious players passionate about improving their game,” he says. “When that's the case, I'm equally passionate about helping them. And I know I can.”Support the show
