"We want to encourage family and friends to join their Members on the golf course" was Junee Golf Club Member Terry Trinca's view when discussing the possibility of replacing their traditional run down metal buggies with a new fleet of brand new Kingcaddy Buggies supplied by TRocket Golf.
"But this often did not happen" Terry explained "because people were turned off having to use dilapidated metal 2 wheel buggies".
Terry also explained to TRocket Golf that when visitors came to Junee Golf Club they would often just let them use the old buggies because of the embarrassment of asking for money for run down equipment. "The loss of revenue from rentals can hurt a Club the size of Junee Golf Club. We want visitors to come here, enjoy their game, and take away pleasant memories of Junee Golf Club. This will occur if they see that the Club takes pride in the equipment they rent to visitors!" Terry went on explain.
Terry Trinca at Junee Golf Club challenged statements and beliefs like these. He could foresee that rental hire buggies can easily add significant revenue to a golf club for minimum outlay.
"We do not want to be like every other Club and offer hire buggies that have a piece of rubber hose wrapped around the handle" was the argument he used when convincing his fellow committee members to agree to the Kingcaddy deal put before them by TRocket Golf.
The TRocket Golf Rental Plan offered to Junee Golf saw them hiring 5 Kingcaddy Push Buggies and 2 Kingcaddy Electric Buggies. YES, electric buggies, it is not a spelling mistake!
With minimal rental forecasts of renting the push buggies twice a week and the electric buggies once a week Junee Golf Club can expect to add $2700 to their bottom line over 12 months.
The buggies are returned to TRocket Golf after 12 months and replaced by NEW buggies to be used for the next 12 months. The buggies are therefore always covered under warranty. TRocket Golf also handle the insurance of the buggies against theft or accidental damage.
Junee Golf Club also benefit if they are involved with the sale of a Kingcaddy Buggy at their Club.
"We are already seeing interest in these buggies from Members and it's only week one!" Terry told TRocket Golf this week.
