ProShopOnly.com to be exclusive distributor of OnCore Golf Technology products to pro shops
February 1, 2018. Buffalo, NY & Westlake Village, CA – OnCore Golf Technology, one of the most disruptive golf ball companies in the world, announces the signing of an exclusive agreement with ProShopOnly.com to bring an innovative business approach to on-course and off-course pro shops in the United States. There are approximately 25,000 golf pro shops across the country focused on providing customers with the latest and greatest in golf equipment. With the significant number of products and suppliers in the market, maintaining a complete offering of the major brands is difficult enough and creates an even greater challenge for up-and-coming participants such as OnCore Golf. The floor and shelf space limitations combined with financial commitments to maintain appropriate inventory levels can be a daunting barrier to entry for small organizations.
ProShopOnly.com is a direct, B2B e-commerce company that has been established to deliver wholesale golf products to pro shops via the Internet and offering shops several financing and supply options to eliminate risk and improve return on investment. “We believe the pro shop is one of the pillars of golf. The big box stores, catalogs and Internet retailers – both direct and resellers – have made it difficult for pro shops to achieve strong profitability for more than a decade, and it’s our goal to help turn that around through more efficient ordering, delivery, replenishment, and financing arrangements that can be customized to the needs of an individual shop,” offered Tim Triplett, CEO, ProShopOnly.com
Prior to committing to the new partnership, the team at ProShopOnly.com ran a pilot test with OnCore’s new flagship tour ball, the ELIXR, at a pro shop in southern California. “The results were staggering. The ELIXR went from an unknown product to the 3rd best SKU in less than 90 days with only word of mouth marketing. With its proprietary perimeter-weighted construction, soft, yet durable, urethane cover and exceptional initial velocity off the driver, the performance of the ELIXR makes it a tour ball that you simply have to play to appreciate. You owe it to yourself to try this ball.” Said Aki Yorihiro, Chairman, ProShopOnly.com
“It is an exciting time to be an innovator in the golf industry.” Said Steve Coulton, VP, OnCore Golf. “For the past six years, we’ve remained focused on our commitment to bring the best in technology and products to golfers of all skill levels. We believe that our Avant and ELIXR balls are “best in breed” in their categories and our customers tell us regularly that they agree. While OnCore has been focused on a direct-to-consumer online approach, we have always felt that delivering our high performance products to golfers who rely on pro shops for their ball supply was also important. This partnership brings the best of both worlds to the golf community and we’re excited to see it launching now.”
