See how PGA Coaches are using PGA Coach
Modern PGA Coach
The value you create as a PGA Coach is based on the solution you provide your students. Take a look at how Blake Jirges, PGA is using the modern approach to coaching to change the way he does business while creating incredible value to his students and driving revenue to himself and Coto de Caza Golf Club.
Coach Profile
From Brian Jacobs, PGA:
"I just wanted to reach out and thank you and your team at PGA Coach.
I received a lead during the PGA Championship from PGA.com. I followed up immediately and today I was able to meet with the student. I did a New Student Assessment which is my gateway product and was able to enroll the student for a coaching program with a spend of $3550.00. I never would have had that lead without PGA Coach and just wanted you, again, to know how grateful I am."
๐ก Did you know that approximately 50% of all leads generated through Coach Profiles on pga.com are converted to a student? Coaches are also engaging those students into coaching programs worth an average of $531 in the first year alone.
Generating Leads
From Drew Anderson, PGA:
"Since completing the certification program in January 2021, I have been provided with 125 leads into my member portal. PGA Coach has been a nice addition to my expanding golf coaching marketing plan to engage potential players. The conversion rate of players inquiring about coaching packages to getting them on the lesson tee is roughly 65%. As a result of this demand solely by the leads created by PGA Coach and how I structure my coaching packages I have seen a additional revenue stream of over $50,000 in less then 2 years.
If your passionate about coaching and want to expand your reach to potential players this certification program is a home run! As a PGA member since 2011 this is with without question one of the best certification programs the PGA of America has rolled out to its members as it adds value to your personal coaching resume and total compensation package at your respective facility."

Group Events
See how the group events tool helps the staff of a public golf course work more efficiently. Check out this story of how Bruce Mohler, PGA is using group events to attract new customers.
Need more settings? Make events private.
From PGA Associate Ben Michelon:
"I am using the new โunlistedโ group events because It is a new and more effective way I can run internal group lessons within my club.โ
Use another booking tool? Collect registrations externally.
With the new external event registration feature, you can take the events you are already running at your facility and use the power of PGA.com to market them to a wider audience. When you create the event, simply add your own registration link when entering the details.
From PGA Associate Ty Martinez:
"As an ADM Certified Coach, I started using the group events on PGA.com to fill up our weekly/annual events. The ability to link to our current registration tool only helps us keep registration familiar for returning customers but also helps new participants find our events.โ
ADM Activities by Stage
From Jimmy Beers, PGA:
"I absolutely LOVE the PGA Coach App! The App has been a game changer for my career as a PGA Professional. The Activity Plans that are on the App have made me look amazing to my students, parents and fellow staff members. They are so easy to follow along and teach. The biggest bonus is all the personal time you save by using the lesson plans instead of spending hours trying to create your own. They also follow all the guidelines of the ADM principals that we all trained for to get access to the PGA Coach App so it keeps everything and every PGA Professional consistent in their teachings to kids all across The United States of America."

PGA Coach Mobile App
From Chance Scheffing, PGA:
"The PGA Coach app has transformed the way I coach, schedule and stay connected with my students. It allows me to work smarter, not harder, by lifting my administrative burden so I can focus more on what I love about coaching.โ
Payments


From Mark Bayram, PGA:
"Using the PGA Coach booking site for events worked great at Timberlin Golf Club. It was extremely simple to set up and manage. We accepted payment online which was a huge help to both the staff and participants. If we needed to communicate with the participants, we could start a group chat. There were a couple events we had to postpone due to inclement weather. With the PGA Coach app, it was easy to communicate a postponement and also refund the customer if necessary. The ease of the PGA Coach app is incredible. Thank you PGA of America for giving us a resource we can all use and utilize."
