For Golf Clubs

You probably think a “free” newsletter means spamming your members.

It’s the elephant in the room. You want a better connection with your members, but you don’t want cheap local ads ruining your club’s reputation. What if you kept 100% editorial control, paid £0, and only featured premium local sponsors you actually approve of?

The Workflow Shift

How are your staff supposed to run a busy club
and act as a digital marketing team?

The Traditional Newsletter
(Your Bottleneck)

Manual Data Wrangling Exporting, cleaning, and formatting messy CSV lists of up to 30+ new members every time you want to send an update.
Compliance Headaches Constantly stressing over GDPR compliance, double opt-ins, and manually processing unsubscribe requests.
Financial Drain Paying monthly fees for email marketing tools and wasting hours chasing local businesses for tee sign sponsorships.
Outdated Presentation Sending clunky, plain-text emails that members ignore or send straight to the spam folder.

The Links Connect System
(Zero Effort)

Automated Triage We handle the data management. Your list is updated, segmented, and deployed without you touching a spreadsheet.
100% GDPR-Compliant A fully managed, secure system that automatically handles all compliance and subscriber preferences.
Zero Cost, Fully Funded Our B2B local business sponsors cover the entire cost. You get a premium weekly newsletter for £0.
Premium Branding Clean, modern design featuring your club’s distinct branding and professional marketing hooks that members actually read.

without adding a single task to your plate?

We partner with your club
We take on full responsibility for designing, writing and delivering a professional weekly newsletter to your members. You provide updates. We handle the heavy lifting.
02
Local businesses fund it
We identify and approach local businesses who want to reach your membership. They secure exclusive sponsor placements inside your newsletter. Their investment covers the entire cost.
03
Everyone wins
Your members receive consistent communication. Your club generates a new revenue stream from sponsor income. Local businesses reach an engaged audience. Your team does nothing extra.
For Golf Clubs

Everything your club needs.
Nothing your team has to do.

Professional Weekly Newsletter
Designed, written and delivered every week without fail. Your branding, your voice, your content — we handle the production.
Zero Cost to the Club
The service is funded entirely by local business sponsorship. Your club pays nothing. Ever.
New Revenue Stream
A percentage of sponsor income is shared directly back with your club. The newsletter becomes an asset, not an overhead.
Better Member Engagement
Members receive consistent, professional communication from their club. Events get better attendance. Members feel more connected.
Time Back for Your Team
Your staff focus on what only they can do — competitions, visitors, operations. Communications come off their plate entirely.
Your Club, Your Voice
Every newsletter is built around your club’s content, calendar and character. We produce it — it reads like it came from you.
Who We Are

Built by people who understand the reality of running a golf club.

Links Connect was founded by Dan and Jay — two people with a shared belief that golf clubs deserve professional communications without the massive administrative overhead that usually comes with it.

Dan Curwen
Dan Curwen
Co-Founder
Dan brings a background in communications, client outreach and commercial strategy. A keen golfer with a deep understanding of the golf industry, he leads club relationships and partnership development alongside the day-to-day running of the business.
Jay Taylor
Jay Taylor
Co-Founder
Jay is an experienced entrepreneur who has built and run successful consumer-facing businesses. He brings a proven track record in engaging customers, building brands and making operations work — and applies that experience directly to how Links Connect is built and delivered.
For Local Businesses

Have you given up on finding local advertising that actually gets seen?

Golf club members are established local consumers. Sponsoring a club newsletter puts your business inside the one communication they actually open — straight from their own club.

Targeted, Not Broad
Traditional advertising reaches random postcodes. We reach golf club members inside their official club communication. No wasted impressions.
The Email Members Open
Club newsletters aren’t promotional emails. They’re trusted updates from the club itself — meaning genuine attention from a receptive audience.
Category Exclusivity
One business per category per club. If you’re the only local solicitor, estate agent or restaurant in the newsletter, you’re the only one your audience sees.
Trackable Placements
Every sponsor placement is clickable and trackable. You see exactly how many members engaged with your business each week.
Common Questions

We’ve heard the skepticism.
Here are the honest answers.

What is the real catch? Does the club pay anything?
There is no catch. The service is funded entirely by local business sponsorship. The club pays absolutely nothing to receive a professionally produced weekly newsletter.
Are we going to lose control of our club’s voice?
Never. Every single newsletter is approved by your club before it goes out. Nothing is sent without your final sign-off. Your club’s voice and reputation are protected at all times.
Will our members just be spammed with cheap ads?
No. We only partner with premium, relevant local businesses (like local solicitors, estate agents, or restaurants), and we limit sponsorships to ensure your club news remains the main focus.
We already send a newsletter — can you improve it?
Absolutely. We work with clubs that have existing communications and improve the quality, consistency and reach — while adding the sponsor-funded revenue model on top.
Who handles the GDPR compliance?
We do. As an ICO-registered entity, we fully manage your subscriber list, handle double opt-ins, and automatically process unsubscribe requests so your club stays 100% compliant.
Who finds the sponsors?
We handle sponsorship sales entirely. We identify and approach local businesses on the club’s behalf. The club doesn’t have to have any involvement in the commercial side.

Would it be a ridiculous idea
to have a 5-minute chat?

No hard sell. Just a quick conversation to see if the sponsor-funded model actually makes sense for your specific membership.
