    Commonly Asked Questions
    Who is Forelinx's customer?
    Our target demographic are young professionals ages 25-45 who love to golf, use mobile and web for purchasing habits, and are interested in expanding their network socially and/or professionally through the sport.
    How will Forelinx scale the business?
    Launching in San Diego will allow our marketing efforts to be extremely focused as well as allow our team's pre-existing relationships to be leveraged. Upon proof of concept we will use proven results to enter new markets and showcase the value Forelinx provides. After San Diego we will expand to Orange County and Los Angeles, then into Phoenix, Orlando, Dallas, Houston, Miami, Las Vegas, Denver and other metropolitan cities with a strong golf presence.
    How many courses will Forelinx launch with?
    10 courses. We have signed contracts from 4 courses and are in the process of exchanging contracts with another 6 which will be completed by July 1. The courses we are targeting vary in layout, length and style in order to provide a nice variety to our membership. The average tee time at our targeted courses retails for $85, which guarantees our members will receive value as soon as they play their 3rd round of the month.
    How will Forelinx use the money raised?
    Staffing a lean team prepared for growth. Two full time developers to refine and optimize our digital needs, a course relationship manager to grow our network of courses in selected cities, and Chief Executive Officer to drive revenue and growth on all levels. An extremely targeted digital strategy consisting of 'Course Name' Google keywords, experiential marketing and Facebook brand recognition. Our paid advertising will target customers we can retain as the annual "LTV" for a Forelinx member is roughly $2,592 allowing us to have a higher one time customer acquisition cost. *for more details visit "USE OF FUNDS" in the pitch slides.
