Pros give ‘Find a Golf Lesson’ the thumbs up

The PGA’s new ‘Find a Golf Lesson’ platform has been well received by Members, with more than 600 completing their online profile.

‘Find a Golf Lesson’ launched last month and helps connect PGA Members to golfers wanting to book a lesson with a PGA Professional.

The free platform replaces the old ‘Find a Pro’ feature that existed on the old website. It is embedded into the home page of www.pga.info as well as other external sites, enabling golfers, as well as non-golfers who are looking to take up the game, to search for and contact PGA Professionals.

“By connecting golfers with their local PGA Professionals, we hope that Find a Golf Lesson will help to further grow the game, get more people taking up golf and help existing players to improve and enjoy playing even more,” said Robert Maxfield, Chief Executive of The PGA.

“PGA Professionals have always been the first port of call for anybody looking to take up golf, as well as for players looking to get better – now there’s an easy way to find a coach whether you’re a member of a golf club or not.”

Matthew Pugh (John Reay Golf Centre)

“The new ‘Find a Golf Lesson’ tool is a great addition to the PGA platform. I signed up as it is another way to showcase what I offer and for golfers to find me and book lessons. The process is very straightforward and after a few clicks your profile is set up and you are ready to be found by your next client.”

Anna Smith (Bristol Golf Centre)

“Setting up my ‘Find a Golf Lesson’ profile was very simple and has allowed me to reach an audience that I wouldn’t have reached without it. Within a few days of launching, I received my first lesson enquiry, which turned into a new lesson booking. A great initiative from The PGA.”

Anders Mankert (Leicester Golf Centre)

“Signing up for ‘Find a Golf Lesson’ was a stunningly simple process which took about 15 minutes from start to finish. It is a free marketing tool which is visible and working for me and my business 24/7. It really was a no brainer and I’d recommend it to anyone who wants their services to be more visible to potential customers.

Nicky Lumb (Bristol Golf Centre)

“It’s great The PGA have started ‘Find a Golf Lesson’ as it will give every PGA Professional that signs up to it the opportunity of free online exposure.

Creating a profile was easy. It simply involved clicking a link on the Member’s home page, following the step-by-step instructions, entering my details and then uploading a few pictures. It took less than 10 minutes to do.

I think it’s a brilliant marketing tool and one of the best initiatives the PGA has introduced.”
