Marketing. |
 Customizable Defector Levels - Determine what your course considers a "defector" (a golfer that hasn't returned in 'X' number of days) and begin the Defector Campaign with that level.

 Removal of the "Double Opt-In" - Fore! Marketing no longer requires a "double opt-in" confirmation from your customers in order to receive automated e-mails from your course. The system now enrolls all customers into your automated campaigns. Simply by upgrading to the new version, you'll notice a large increase in your enrollment numbers! |
 Flexible Offer Expiration Dates - Why limit customers with birth dates during the bottom half of the month a shorter time to redeem your offer? Now you can customize the offer expiration date (for any campaign) based on the amount of days after the offer was sent rather than a specific expiration date. You can also customize expiration dates by customer type! |
|
 Multi-Level Customer Removals - Since a "double opt-in" is no longer required, Fore! Marketing now features an integrated multi-level removal system to protect the customer's privacy and ensure your course doesn't send automated e-mails to a customer that has indicated he/she would like to be removed from such e-mails. |
 Coupon Enhancements - Coupons sent with offer e-mails are now more customizable! Add a sales item bar code and customer ID barcode to each coupon so your counter staff properly rings-in the item offer, speeding up check-in and ensuring your reports are accurate. Also available is a course-selected header image as well as setting general coupon terms and conditions. |

 Offer Touch Screen Kiosk - Not considered 'new' to Fore! Marketing 2011 but well worth a friendly reminder! Don't forget that the Touch Screen Kiosk can operate as any Offer Kiosk, it does not have to be tied only to your Birthday Club. Customize the message and offer and change those settings at any time to coincide with course events, monthly promotions or when at an industry show. |
|
 Touch Screen Kiosk Statistics - Lookup Touch Screen Kiosk entries much more efficiently in the new release. Select a date span for the kiosk promotion you would like to generate a customer list from and easily view the list and copy/paste into Microsoft Excel if needed. You can also run year to date and month to date queries. |
 Timeout Threshold - You can now customize the number of seconds that the confirmation page appears on the kiosk screen after a customer enters his/her information. Shortening the timeout can help expedite the number of customers touching the kiosk which can be helpful on busy days at the course. You can also customize the confirmation screen text. |
