“The 59club surveys have been a huge success for us! We have linked our EPOS [Concept] system to 59club’s survey software, which will provide a survey to anyone that plays a round of golf at The Belfry. This gives us even more insight into what our customers are looking for allowing us to retain our number one position as the best golf resort in the UK.” Chris
59club’s Mystery Shopper process allows you to understand business trends, monitor performance, develop staff and exceed customers’ evolving expectations.
An independent mystery shopper audit allows managers to view their club through the eyes of their customers, taking feedback to pinpoint strengths and weaknesses with the ability to make service comparisons across the industry.
The audit criteria dissects your service offering into the following categories: staff attitude, sales & upselling aptitude, facility management and general operating procedures. This generates real and current information that can be acted upon.
59club have mapped out the perfect service experience within every revenue stream, complete with the flexibility to customise audits to reflect your individual customer journey .

With bespoke ‘performance comparisons’ against competitors, the 59club industry and best performers internationally, in addition to complete functionality to track headline and departmental trends, clubs receive the intel and motivation to ensure performance is achieving its potential.
"The expertise, information and staff training that 59club has provided us at both Emirates Golf Club and Dubai Creek, over the years have become mainstays of our business, and have allowed us to deliver a consistently high level of customer service across our entire group operation. We pride ourselves on being amongst the very best venues in terms of the visitor and member experience in world golf.”
Chris May, CEO, Dubai Golf"For us 59club acts as a training tool, allowing us to drill down into all the different sectors of how you are being managed and measured. It’s a tool for getting together with the team to identify where you need to improve, it’s about consistency at the end of the day, producing the same conditions on a daily basis for our guests expectations, that's what it’s all about."
Craig Haldane, Golf Courses Manager, The Gleneagles Hotel"We pride ourselves on our overall guest experience, delivered through our entire team’s extensive knowledge and dedication. We are always looking for ways to improve, working with 59club has been really beneficial. We will, therefore, continue to support our staff with innovative, industryleading training plans incorporating 59club’s expert guidance, to ensure we remain at the forefront of guest experience, as we continue to evolve and strive for growth throughout the resort. I would encourage others to search out such feedback with an open mind when it comes to finding new ways to improve."
Agustin
Garcia, Chief Business Officer at Infinitum (formerly known as Lumine)"The training and testing platform created the much needed visibility into our sales organization that we have been wanting for a long time. We now have a consistent sales training program for all new hires, and allows us to focus our retraining efforts specifically on those that need it and on the areas that they need. Mike and his team are incredibly responsive and have done so much to help our sales team."
Vic Aliprando, VP of Business Development, PGA Tour - Golf Course Properties"Our partnership with 59club USA has been instrumental in evaluating and enhancing our performance across the board,” said Amy Buchanan, VP of Sales and Marketing, Bobby Jones Links. “Using a third party to ensure we’re constantly getting better is a real differentiator compared to other management companies who rely on biased data from their own channels. With 59club USA, we can ensure we’re getting real, actionable, unbiased data which will allow us to improve quickly and efficiently. We’re thrilled with the results.”
Amy
Buchanan, VP of Sales & Marketing, Bobby Jones Links"It’s an absolute pleasure to be associated with and work alongside 59club, their expertise span the whole of the hospitality business – which Troon Golf also specialises in. There is such incredible value in the level of detail within the 59club reports, it’s a set of independent eyes, seeing the customer journey through the eyes of the guest, which is so incredibly valuable. Nine times out of 10, you are going to see an increase in revenue, and that is an absolute no brainer. I do genuinely respect and value what 59club offers. It’s something golf never had previously, and I just hope everyone else values it as much as we do. Properties need to see their products and services as something that provides tangible value; with 59club your guaranteed to improve the overall experience, and ultimately that will make a difference to your profits."
Tom
Rourke, General Manager, The Els Club, Dubai"Our relationship with 59club speaks for itself – we have been working with 59club for nine years and we’re very happy. They’re very professional and very helpful in all aspects. You only have to look at the range of products they continue to introduce to see that it’s not a company that is standing still. They’re progressing and, as their client, we progress too."

Compare variables such as gross profit, turnover, membership revenue & attrition, purchasing rates, average monthly sales, payroll and staffing levels. Subsequent releases will allow venues to delve deeper to truly understand greenkeeping costs, professional offerings and club salaries.
Metrics combines differing financial & numerical statistics to provide clarity around a venues financial performance, for example ‘total revenue divided by number of rounds played’, or ‘payroll divided as a percentage of revenue’; generating direct industry comparisons. Complete with intelligent filters that allow you to make further adjustments to measure your results against a custom data set.
Club Study connects Managers with industry Insight, and a global network.
Our minute surveys are used to collect immediate and diverse responses from 59club’s global network, with results analysed to identify emerging trends, and then published days later. Each fortnightly survey highlights technical, conceptual and philosophical insights from inside Golf, Leisure & Hospitality businesses from across the UK, Europe, USA, Canada, Asia, Middle East, Africa, Australia & New Zealand.
The Insight, Collaboration and Community that Club Study creates, will inspire curiosity, and ultimately empower Club Managers to make informed data-driven decisions.
40% of clubs allow their staff to dine at their club, though most state it's during certain times or infrequently
“We want our staff to be proud of where they work so typically if they have family in town for a special occasion, we will let them dine at the club with their family"
Participants are encouraged to submit questions they would like to appear in subsequent surveys, putting Club Managers in control of the direction the study takes to give an industry perspective like no other.
Previous reports have revealed a Club Manager's typical ratio of hours spent in versus outside the office, the composition of a club's board or management group, the frequency of F&B menu changes, and emotive responses to pinpoint a manager’s stress level, to provide a broad flavour of what’s in store.
Club Study is a complimentary offering as part of 59club’s commitment to support the Club Manager to achieve Customer Service Excellence by harnessing insight, collaboration and building community.
