Snooker Forum
We will shortly be setting up a 'Snooker Club Forum' for
owners and managers of snooker clubs all over the UK. This
will allow clubs from different areas that are not in competition
with each other to share ideas and case studies. Successful
marketing campaigns to ideas for tournaments and events
will be included to help promote your club.
Creates a professional image
As well as promoting your club to potential and existing
members a website also gives your club a professional image
to suppliers, investors and other companies you may deal
with. It gives your club a permanent online brochure or
business card that companies and business contacts can view
online.
An online presence 24/7
Your website will be open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
to allow potential new members to find out all about your
club. Whatever time of day someone wants to contact you
or find out about the club they can visit the website for
an in depth view of your club and the facilities available.
The internet is fast becoming the first place people look
for information and statistics show that over 80% of the
UK population now have access to the internet. This is a
huge market of potential customers you could be missing
out on, especially the younger generation who have grown
up using the internet.
Promoting your club
A website provides a mass of information about your club
in an easy to access medium. Compared to a leaflet or advertisement
in a newspaper which only gives you a small amount of space
to sell your club and facilities. With a website you can
promote every element of your club in detail with photos
and text to accompany it.
Keep existing customers informed
You can ensure existing members know exactly what is going
on at the club and let them find out about tournaments,
social events and latest offers whatever time of the day.
Once your site is saved in their favourites they will be
encouraged to visit the site to remind them to come down
for a game or a few beers.
Referrals
Due to the readily available access of the internet, it
enhances the potential for people recommending your club
to friends or relatives. Where in the past people would
say "Pop down the club, when you get a chance",
or "give them a call". Now it can be "Check
out their website, it tells you everything about their facilities,
opening times and how to join". They are also able
to go straight on to the website and complete the application
form and be a member in no time.
Reduced administration
With the ability to include online membership forms and
online contact forms, your website can help streamline your
administration. It can also be useful to refer people to
for information such as opening times and details of the
latest tournaments and events.
Limitless possibilities
Unlike a leaflet or poster, websites can be updated or expanded
with relative ease allowing your website to be up to date
with what's happening at your club and expand your site
when it suits you. This gives you the control to promote
your club in line with any other advertising or marketing
you may be doing.
