Private golf club business plans should describe the market opportunity in detail and look closely at the industry. You'll also want to emphasize the memberships terms and the offerings of the club. A profile of your target members will be helpful (demographic, income, commonalities, and so forth) as will an honest and well-written assessment of the market need. If you have sketches, branding materials, or pictures, get those in the plan as well. Other considerations for a private golf club business plan:
• What competition do you face?
• Can you list your competitive advantages?
• Which marketing strategies will you rely on most?
• Can you outline your personnel needs for 3-5 years?
• Do you have an exit strategy?
• What percentage ownership would you be willing to relinquish?
• What will the membership rates be, and what terms and guidelines will you apply?
The financial pro forma will need to cover five years if you need private investment or will present to VCs. This should include cash flow, revenue, P&L, and break-even statements including a monthly breakdown for Year 1. An ROI calculation is also important.
