Advertisers
Traditionally, advertising on golf courses has been done with businesses in
nearby communities advertising on their local golf courses. National advertisers
have never had the opportunity to be on multiple golf courses nationally with
regularity and have had no other option but to use other media to reach the
golfing demographic. With CupVision™, Greenside Marketing now provides
advertisers the opportunity to reach golfers on a daily basis on golf courses
nationwide.
Unlike TV and other forms of advertising, our concentration of high end
consumers is unmatched. With significant audience dilution in TV, print, outdoor
and radio, particularly among upscale consumers, CupVision™’s targeted
advertising with ForcedView™ impressions is a better way for advertisers to
reach their desired audience. Also, because of the social nature of golf, the
golf course provides a very relaxed and captive environment for digesting the
high level of ad frequency that CupVision™ provides. For example, on an 18-hole
round of golf, consumers will see branded communication a minimum of sixty times
per round! This level of frequency is unmatched by other forms of media.
