Think Local - Act Global
100% in native language - no Google translated pages or poorly made app that simply links to the club's website.Here at CourseMate, we know the true meaning of "think global, but act local" which is why we have developed our CourseMate Golf Club App for our Spanish club's members in their own language.
For golf resorts we also offer a visitor's app in English, creating the perfect club companion for golfers on their holiday and allow the club to market directly to them throughout the year, thereby also allowing the clubs also to act global and think local!
Spain maybe a very popular golf destination, however it is not just visiting golfers that play their stunning courses and bask in the Mediterranean sunshine, many golf courses - both private and resort based - have a thriving local membership, up until now the resorts had very little choice when it came to giving an app to their members, but now CourseMate is giving clubs a world-class app aimed at both private members clubs and giving marketing reach to golfing resorts.
“Golf clubs in Spain have the same problems to solve as the rest of the world does” Said Jenni Biggs, Co-Founder of CourseMate “they require a personalised communication and marketing solution that centralises all the venue’s offerings and booking systems making it easy for their members to see what is on, take advantage of promotions and to book their tee time or reserve the restaurant.”
“From research, no self respecting club would want to give their member’s a half-baked app that is either in English or an app that simply points to their web pages” continued Biggs “Which is why we have created a Spanish version of CourseMate”

Solving the language barrier
As every club knows marketing to Members and Visitors is completely different, especially if different languages are spoken, which is why a number of our golf clubs have opted to for two apps - that way they can ensure the correct communications and marketing messages go to the right set of golfers creating the perfect win-win.If your club would like an app in Spanish or English (or both!) fill out the short contact form below and we will be in touch very shortly.
