<strong>Golf</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> Update<br />

The <strong>Golf</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> strategic initiative continues to gain momentum, with more success stories of <strong>PGA</strong> Professionals and their facilities<br />

focusing on new and creative ways to implement player development programs. The <strong>Golf</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> team has recently introduced<br />

“Know Your Customer Tactics,” the latest resource in the Know Your Customer series of publications. Know Your Customer<br />

Tactics will help <strong>PGA</strong> Professionals execute the Know Your Customer action steps to enhance the Customer Relationship Management<br />

(CRM) programs at their facilities.<br />

Additional <strong>Golf</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> Playbooks and tools are being developed to target the three Core Strategies which comprise the <strong>Golf</strong> <strong>2.0</strong><br />

plan – Strengthening the Core, Engaging the Lapsed, and Driving New Players.<br />

All <strong>Golf</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> information and publications are available at www.golf20.net. During the off-season, I would encourage you and<br />

your staff to explore the <strong>Golf</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> website, review the Playbooks and other resources, and develop a plan for 2013 to incorporate<br />

some of the ideas that will work at your facility. It’s also important to communicate your plans with your employer, so they<br />

know you are being proactive in promoting the success of your facility. <strong>PGA</strong> Professionals can login using their <strong>PGA</strong>Links<br />
