DOES ADVERTISING ON NORTHERN OHIO GOLF REALLY WORK?

“Every day, it seems, I have a customer tell me he checks NorthernOhio.Golf to make sure he isn’t missing a good tournament somewhere. This website far surpasses any other way I have to reach the regional golfer. I also appreciate the post-tournament coverage. Results being posted are as important as the promotion itself.”
– Brad Haynes, GM, Zoar Golf Club

 

“Highly recommended. I’ve partnered with Northern Ohio Golf for the past several years. Exposure and recognition have continued to increase. Thanks Al!”
– Thomas Skidmore, Attorney, Thomas A. Skidmore Co., L.P.A.

 

“We were very appreciative that NorthernOhio.Golf was able to give us publicity two Tuesdays in a row for our Golf Trade show. The work that Allen did on our write-up was great. We can certainly recommend his service to Northeast Ohio golfers.”
Jim Jeselnick – President, The Golf Heritage Society

 

“Being a new course in the area, it has been very beneficial to be associated with NorthernOhio.Golf. The professionalism and insight that Allen has given us has been great. We have personally seen business come from NorthernOhio.Golf and look forward to growing our relationship with them in the future.”
– Barry Friedman, PGA, Valley of the Eagles Golf Club

 

“NorthernOhio.Golf is our direct pipeline to amateur tournament golfers. I check it almost everyday as it is the “word” on what’s happening in golf in Northeast Ohio.”
– John Fiander, PGA, Cleveland Metroparks Golf / Sleepy Hollow Golf Course

 

“Affiliating ourselves with Northern Ohio Golf has been a great decision. Their website is top notch and it’s the go-to site for golfers who want up-to-date information on many events across the area. The advertising, marketing programs, course descriptions, and click-thrus have been valuable to our course and extends our professional appearance to the public.”
– Bob Acquaviva, GM, Chardon Lakes Golf Course

 

“NorthernOhio.Golf was a tremendous partner in helping with promoting our 3-day Invitational. The follow-up before, during and after the event has been extremely professional. Without a doubt our event has been enhanced with the help of NorthernOhio.Golf.”
– Matthew Creech, PGA, The Mayfield Sand Ridge Club

 

“NorthernOhio.Golf has extended our presence and visibility to an additional golfing audience we previously did not have. The site exposed golfers to Boulder Creek that never experienced the course, which translated into repeat customers. I would highly recommend the site to those courses looking to broaden their customer base for a nominal cost.”
– Joe Salemi, Owner, Boulder Creek Golf Club

 

“Our relationship with NorthernOhio.Golf over the last several years has proven to be worth way more than the annual cost of being a member.

If you need a “boost” for your tournaments and events, there is no better place to go than NorthernOhio.Golf.”
– Kevin Larizza, Past Owner, Chippewa Golf Club

 

“Northern Ohio Golf is the very best way to promote a single event or your facility in general to the core golfers in Northeast Ohio (our target market). Al Freeman goes above and beyond. I can’t say enough about what Al has done to promote golf and grow the business of all the facilities in Northern Ohio.”
– Daniel Dauk, PGA, Windmill Lakes Golf Club

 

“Advertising with NorthernOhio.Golf turned one of the biggest ROIs for us in 2019. We actually had golfers print out the article and present it in store, looking for the product they read about! Allen provided us with helpful insight into his audience that allowed us to best connect with his readers and followers. We will be renewing in 2020!”
– Zach Clark, Marketing Team Leader, HempLuxe and Mustard Seed Market

– Paul LaGrotteria, Co-Owner, Murphy Bros Auto Body
