 About Us.
Impact Golf Marketing was the
vision of one man eleven years ago. Robert A.
(Robbie) Wooten, II saw the industry trending in a
negative way. While working as a golf professional
in Orlando, FL, Robbie saw the effects of a fast-growing
golf market. But it was after reading a report by
a leading golf research company stating "we need to
build a course a day for the next 10 years to keep up
with demand", the proverbial light bulb went off.
Having been around several markets that were extremely
competitive, and seeing plans for more growth, it became
clear to him that unless more golfers took up the game
or more golfers increased the frequency of their play,
clubs would begin to have difficulty turning a profit.
Supply and demand. Simple theory really. When demand
far outweighs the supply, business is good.
However, today's golf market
is proving to be the polar opposite. In an effort
to combat the explosive course growth and the stagnant
golfer participation numbers, Robbie began building a
company committed to driving more golfers to play more
frequently so his clients would make more money.
His commitment along with his high level of experience
and knowledge have helped turn Impact Golf Marketing
into a significant player in today's golf industry. Clients will
tell you Robbie's ability to
develop revenue-driving strategies is well-respected.
Oh yeah, they will also tell you his plans and systems work.
