FOREBIZ PERFORMANCE ANALYTICS Using a combination of proprietary financial information, publicly accessible databases, and technical model-building to correlate the demand for golf, Sequoia’s ForeBiz team has developed statistically-proven correlations between certain demographic variables and golf course profitability. These performance analytics are used by Sequoia Golf to remove subjectivity out of key operating strategies such as: • Major investment, capital improvement, or disposition decisions. • Mapping targeted members and customers “thermally” to assist sales and marketing teams in marketing campaign efforts. • Compare between like courses to refine pricing and repositioning strategies. • Utilize detailed weather data (50 daily data points) to determine weather-based play patterns to determine appropriate staffing levels. Combining this information has enabled Sequoia to rank every course in a particular market in terms of its potential for financial success. The ability to distill this data through regression analysis and correlate any given golf course’s statistical ranking for potential financial performance is an industry game changer. No one else in the golf industry has the capability to deliver these highly accurate performance analytics for their own portfolio or for the benefit of third-party clients.
