Houston, TX (December 1, 2008) One of the fastest growing golf consumer sites, www.stracka.com, a portal for today’s technologically hip who love to play golf, has acquired the assets of GolfQ.com.
GolfQ.com, formed in 1999, is among the pioneers and innovators in the golf industry. The company has created a dynamic Web site that has attracted more than 200,000 golfers to golf specials, tournaments and events, and to a place where they can track their handicaps and statistics. Through e-mail marketing, golfers are informed of value-priced golf and offered the opportunity to play in tournaments and events sponsored by GolfQ.com. With GolfQ.com’s introduction of the “Impact card,” golfers are further rewarded for their customer loyalty; they earn valuable points that can be redeemed for additional rounds or merchandise.
GolfQ.com’s vision is unique in that it has amassed an independent database of active golfers that can be accessed by golf course managers for a nominal monthly fee and without the fear of having their messages blocked by spam filters. The company ensures the timely delivery of its clients’ electronic marketing messages. With a dominant presence in Georgia, and Texas, GolfQ.com provides golf course managers the ability, for the first time, to engage in proactive yield management of their daily revenue. GolfQ.com sponsored events frequently fill golf courses to capacity on weekday when demand is low.
James Keegan, Managing Principal of Golf Convergence, commented, “The acquisition of Golf.com by Stracka.com complements outstanding technology and exponentially increases the market penetration of both companies. With Jim Stracka’s dynamic leadership and impressive technology background, the continued rapid growth of www.stracka.com is assured.”
