Elite Golf Experiences (EGE) is an US based inbound golf tour operator with focus on Asian tourists. In 2009, the tour operator successfully penetrated the Chinese travel market and increased its business till 2013. Thereafter, despite the growing potential of outbound tourism from China, EGE experienced a declining market share.
The key challenge for EGE was recapturing the lucrative market without compromising on its premium pricing strategy to deliver superior value.
Drawing on its insider access to the China Golf Market, GTC was able to implement a 5-step multi-pronged strategy for EGE, which included:
→ 3x increase in monthly revenues after implementation of the recommended strategy
→ US$ 700,000 in sales from China alone; including a new record of US$ 1.5 million in April 2015
→ 2.7% increase in net profit within 6 months
→ Increase in awareness and recognition of Elite Golf Experiences as a market leader among affluent Chinese golfers
