We run the entire acquisition funnel under your brand. Each marker below is one step closer to the pin — a signed coaching plan.

Evaluations convert into your $750–$4,000 coaching programs. We track every close so you see exact ROI.

The Partner Model

Everything handled. Nothing hidden.

The Partner Model: a $995/mo base covers the full system, and we earn 20% of the packages we close for you — so we only win when you do. You coach; we handle everything between a stranger and a signed student.

  • Included

    Ad campaign management

    Meta and Google campaigns built, launched, and optimized weekly for your area and availability.

  • Included

    Branded evaluation funnel

    Landing page, booking calendar, and reminder sequences built under your name — you own the assets.

  • Included

    Lead follow-up system

    Automated SMS and email nurture so evaluations actually show up. No-show rate managed, not ignored.

  • Included

    Close-rate coaching

    A proven evaluation-to-plan conversation framework, so the free session naturally leads to a paid program.

  • Included

    Weekly reporting

    Leads, cost per booking, show rate, and closes in one simple scorecard. You always know your numbers.

  • Capacity

    Three coaches per cohort

    We onboard a maximum of three coaches at a time so every account gets real attention. When the cohort is full, a waitlist opens.

The guarantee

10 booked evaluations in 30 days — or we work free until you get them.

No long contracts to hide behind. If the funnel doesn't put qualified golfers on your lesson tee in the first month, you don't pay for the next one until it does.

Questions

Before you ask

What does it cost?

Our Partner Model is $995/mo base plus 20% of the packages our team closes for you (10% on renewals we handle) — your own referrals and walk-ins stay 100% yours. Ad spend is separate and paid by you directly to the ad platforms, so you control every dollar. Prefer a flat fee? A no-commission option exists too — we cover both on the strategy call. Either way, one core package close covers the base.

Who pays for the advertising?

You do, directly to Meta or Google, so you always own the account and see every dollar. We set budgets with you before anything launches — nothing is spent without your sign-off.

How does the guarantee work?

If we don't book at least 10 qualified evaluations onto your calendar in your first 30 days, your next month's management fee is waived until we hit that number. It's written into the agreement, not just the website.

What do I have to do myself?

Run the evaluations and coach. We handle ads, landing pages, booking, reminders, and follow-up. The one thing we'll ask for up front: an hour for onboarding and a few photos/clips of you at your facility for ad creative.

Why only three coaches per cohort?

Every account gets weekly optimization and direct communication. Capping the cohort keeps that real. When spots fill, applications go to a waitlist for the next opening.

Do you work with coaches outside golf?

Not right now. The funnel, creative, and close framework are built specifically for golf instruction — that focus is why it works.
