Kaizen / Season Fill
Season Fill
Ninety days aimed at the seven months your calendar cannot pay for. Here is the reasoning, the sequence, and exactly what gets built.
The premise
You're not
running a
business,
you're
running a
season
An indoor golf venue does not usually have a demand problem. It has a calendar problem. Demand arrives with the cold, leaves with it, and every fixed cost in the building ignores both events.
That makes the off-season the most expensive thing you own. It is also the only part of the year where a marketing decision still has room to change the outcome, because the winter mostly takes care of itself.
Season Fill exists to sell things in the good months that keep paying in the bad ones. Not more evening walk-ins. Commitments.
The sequence
Four phases
Read the year
Twelve months of booking data, rebuilt month by month. Where the season turns, how steep the fall is, and what it costs at your own bay rate. Nothing gets built before this exists.
- Revenue and utilisation by month, with the exact week the drop starts
- The off-season gap priced in your numbers, in writing
- How much of last winter's customer list came back the next winter
- What you already sell that survives April, and what quietly does not
Build what survives April
A walk-in is a transaction that ends when the customer leaves. The off-season is carried by things that were bought once and keep being honoured: leagues, memberships, packages, block bookings. This phase builds them.
- Summer and shoulder-season league formats, with pricing and a schedule
- Membership or credit structures billed monthly rather than per visit
- Corporate, party and event packages that sell on daytime and weekday nights
- Junior and coaching programs aimed at the school break
- Landing and booking pages for each, on your domain, which you keep
Sell it while they are here
The longest phase, and the one with a deadline attached. Every week of peak season that passes without an offer in front of your customers is a year-round customer you convert next winter instead of this one.
- In-venue conversion: what your staff say, and what is in front of the customer in the bay
- Email and SMS to your existing list, with documented consent
- Local paid social and search, aimed at the specific product, measured on sign-ups
- Speed-to-lead follow-up so an enquiry gets an answer in minutes
- Weekly reporting against committed revenue, not impressions
Hold it through the gap
Signing people up is the easy half. The last two weeks build the machinery that keeps them, and hand it to you in a form your staff can run without us.
- Renewal and rebooking cadence, automated in your own tools
- A reactivation sequence that runs through the quiet months on its own
- Every asset, list, pixel and automation transferred to your accounts
- A written review: what worked, what did not, and what we would do next
Terms
Three venues
at a time
The same operator reads the data, writes the offers, builds the campaigns and sits on the weekly call. That is a hard ceiling of three venues at once, and we do not take two in the same market.
Pricing is set per venue on the call against your own bay rate and the size of your own gap. Ninety days, then a decision, not a twelve month contract signed before there is anything to judge.
Twenty minutes, a year of bookings open
We map where your season turns, put a number on the gap, and tell you whether we think it can be closed. Free, and you keep the number either way.
