As more and more people and companies in the golfing space have started making noise about Snapchat, we at Private Club Marketing have curated a list of accounts you should be following.
With golf looking for more ways to attract a younger demographic Snapchat's platform is perfect for getting your message out to the loyal young followers of your club and course.
Naturally, we decided to jump on and find out what the fuss was all about.
It’s fun, simple, visual and addictive. What’s more, it’s unlike any other social platform. It is unrehearsed and offers behind the scenes insight into the daily lives of golfers that the other platforms can’t replicate.
It feels very private and in the moment. This is what makes it so good. It’s also what makes it hard to find decent accounts to follow. Snapchat has no account discovery function. It’s not designed to be a viral platform. Unless you know who to follow, it will be a ghost town for you.
Here’s a list of the best we've found make sure you check them out, and let us know if we should add anyone to the list.
