My Role:

As the North American Customer Success Manager, I took ownership of our U.S. client base, from daily-fee courses to private clubs. I wasn’t just supporting accounts but shaping our go-to-market strategy, one conversation at a time.

Before We Begin…

When Players 1st first called me, they weren’t lacking tech horsepower. They had a beautiful platform, golfer experience surveys, Net Promoter Scores, and sharp dashboards.

The problem?

In the U.S. market, nobody knew who they were, and course operators weren’t exactly begging for another software subscription. Engagement was low, renewal conversations were uncomfortable, and growth felt like rolling a boulder uphill.

Been there.

The startup grind doesn’t care how good your product is. It cares whether you solve real problems in a way that real customers can feel.

In the next few minutes, I’ll explain how we transformed Players 1st’s U.S. strategy from a “nice idea” to a “need-to-have.”
