The game of golf, a cherished blend of precision, patience, and passion, has long captured the hearts of enthusiasts and professionals alike. From sprawling greens to meticulously designed courses, the sport embodies a unique combination of skill and leisure. However, behind the serene landscape lies an industry grappling with a series of formidable challenges.

GolfSuites’ Winning Gameplay Strategy:

Combining Price Changes with Dividend Payouts

In order to entice investors and drive higher reinvestment rates, GolfSuites has employed a unique strategy with their past three Reg A raises. First, they periodically adjust the price per share, based on the company’s growth—demonstrating continued traction as time goes on. This process, which is typically slow and tedious, has been totally transformed into a quick and easy task, thanks to DealMaker’s price change tool.

“What used to take an endless amount of emails and follow-up is now something I can control myself and handle in less than a minute. Everything works seamlessly!” - Ryan Ellenburg, Managing Director of Capital Markets at GolfSuites

In addition to using dynamic pricing tools, GolfSuites also offers its shareholders an 8% annual dividend, paid monthly, giving their investors the opportunity to start enjoying a return on investment much faster.

“The whole process of paying out monthly dividends has been simplified and made so much easier by DealMaker’s platform,” Ellenburg said. “It’s basically effortless to access our investor list and its accompanying data—we pull all that information once a week, which ensures our records management and payout processes are always running smoothly. We’ll definitely continue to use DealMaker’s platform as we continue to scale.”
