Burr Ridge, Illinois, February 10, 2009 – Fore! Reservations, the leading provider of golf course management and marketing software, unveiled the brand new Customer Input Touch Screen Kiosk at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, January 29 – 31, 2009.
This newest technology from Fore! Reservations is designed to help a golf course grow its customer database by collecting valuable customer information right at the golf shop counter. The Customer Input Touch Screen Kiosk makes data collection happen efficiently and easily with no assistance from golf shop staff.
“We’re very excited to offer this new technology to golf courses,” Scott Merchant, Director of Marketing, said. “The Customer Input Touch Screen Kiosk is easy to implement and enables golf courses to collect customer data with more convenience than ever before. The touch screen technology makes data collection happen quickly – allowing golfers the opportunity to register for a course’s birthday program without being late to the first tee, holding up the check-in process at the counter, or interfering with already-burdened counter staff.”
Customers simply enter their e-mail address and birthday into a touch screen at the golf shop counter to become part of the course’s birthday program. Customers automatically receive an e-mail confirming their participation, and are asked to complete an online customer profile. This information goes directly into the course’s Fore! Reservations system, instantly growing its marketable customer database.
“We expect the touch screen technology to grow course databases considerably, resulting in a higher return on birthday program participation and e-mail marketing campaigns,” Merchant adds. “It works in conjunction with our automated Fore! Marketing product, helping the golf course effectively market its facility and maximize its revenue.”
Implementing a Customer Input Touch Screen Kiosk is easy, requiring only a simple computer and Internet access located on or near the golf shop counter. Kiosks can also operate with a wireless Internet connection enabling a course to position multiple touch screens throughout its facility and take it to trade shows to attract new customers and collection their information.
