The Idea Behind This Service
You have the infrastructure to create and book packages.  We have a member base that is growing exponentially, and we're offering golf packages to our members that love to travel and appreciate value and convenience.  QUESTION- Why run high dollar ads in national publications or pay someone else to create stay and play packages when you can (in less than 5 minutes) post an offer on LMG to fill your resort this weekend, next month, or next quarter? 

Our solution is simple, it's efficient, and it's effective.  Most resorts place many restrictions on these packages (limited group size, "last minute" nature, other restrictions you choose to add), so there is no risk of changing the perceived value of your resort. These offers could never apply to large groups that are your bread and butter. The offers can be added and/or removed literally at the last minute... simply to fill in the gaps left by "regular" large group business. 
 

 

Important Guidelines  
We're clearly offering something very unique here.  Providing tremendous convenience for our members and providing you with a way to efficiently reach hundreds of thousands of monthly visitors to our site.  In exchange, we ask that you post attractive packages and that your call center staff is well versed in the package details.  It's that simple.  It's very important to us to be able to provide our members the confidence of knowing they are enjoying good values when booking packages posted to LastMinuteGolfer.  You may even choose to create a package that is ONLY for LastMinuteGolfers (optional).  If you post a package that is ONLY available for LastMinuteGolfers, we'll give this package extra attention including promotion within hundreds of thousands of monthly statements and in tee time alerts!.  

LastMinuteGolfer is not in (and will never be in) the package booking business.. we're in the package promotion business!  We're in the business of creating a unique experience for our community of over 402,000 golfers.

Our system vs. print ads-  LastMinuteGolfer combines reach of the best print publications, a tremendously loyal community of golfers AND the ability to quickly add or edit offers real time... try THAT with an ad that you run in a major print publication!... We know you'll be delighted with the exposure that LastMinuteGolfer provides.

In addition, you may have up to two different offers being promoted at the same time, and you can view your "current promos" at any time.

 

Your Call Center- Simple Requirements for Participation  
Since we rely on YOU to answer the phones and book packages that are promoted on our site, we have ONE simple requirement. Namely, you must just have the correct reservation phone number posted to our site and have a well trained person answering phones to book packages.

 

Promoting Your Resort to Golfers in FIVE Top "Feeder" Markets  
As part of our promotion of resorts that offer special packages just for LastMinuteGolfers, resort banner/ button will appear in up to five cities of your choosing.  You may change the cities in which the banners fly and the banner itself quarterly. We'll also run a "featured resort" banner for your resort on our national homepage.

 

Paying for this "Real Time Direct to Consumer" System  
We'll build your website and create some banners for you for free.  A simple once/ year subscription fee of $2,500 covers everything that we do including the promotional website, the banners promoting your resort to your top feeder markets and the user-friendly interface for you to post packages that are promoted directly to our members.
