Planning a corporate golf event may not be as straightforward as you think. |

It's probably the one day of the year when the greatest number of your valuable customers are gathered together. You have an outstanding opportunity to impress them with your company's professionalism and attention to detail.
At the same time, your business needs to maximize the return on the budget it's about to spend - that means buying facilities, promotional items, prizes and ancillary services in the most efficient and cost effective way. Clarion Golf has established arrangements with a number of prestigious venues that enable our clients to benefit from discounted rates and dates that might otherwise not be available. Clarion Golf also has long established trading accounts with golf and promotional merchandise manufacturers, enabling clients to purchase gifts & prizes at very competitive prices.
When you consider that many venues are booked more than a year in advance and that golf professionals charge retail prices for gifts and prizes, the benefits of retaining Clarion Golf quickly becomes apparent.
Other considerations include the style, quality and difficulty of golf venue required. This should be based not only upon your company's budgetary and geographical requirements, but also upon the profile of the guests. It's important to consider whether they are established or new customers or prospects and to take into account their golfing ability. Some additional coaching should be considered for novice golfers who are valuable customers but might not yet have the confidence to play in the main event.
Administratively, consideration should also be given to the amount of time your employees might spend working on the event and the company time they might waste looking for the best deal and getting and comparing quotations. If this is not the job they are normally employed to do the 'real' or 'opportunity' cost to your business might be much greater than anticipated.
Clarion Golf aims to remove the entire administrative burden from your company. Clarion Golf will identify appropriate venues for your event, provide detailed budgets and make suggestions for prizes and gifts. Our service includes distribution of invitations and collation of responses, either by post or electronically (many of our clients prefer us to create bespoke websites from which their hospitality events can be administered). Clarion Golf will also suggest, cost and arrange additional services like guest speakers, trick shot shows, golf instruction clinics and photography or video of your event.
