The social networking community and online golf club TheSocialGolfer.com (TSG) has been selected as finalists in this year’s Essex Digital Awards…
Now in their second year, the Essex Digital Awards look to reward innovation and progressive thinking by businesses across the county.
Previous winners span several industries and range from individuals to national companies, but all have at the core of their entry a desire to use digital media as a means to achieve greater things for their business.
The EDAs are backed by a range of Essex-based companies including Lookers Volvo Colchester, Freelance SEO Essex, Essex Chambers of Commerce, and Northcliffe Newspapers’, Essex Chronicle.
Since its official launch in 2010, the site (run by Essex-based Marketing Specialist – Ian Mullins) has firmly established itself as one of the most used golfing websites in Essex and the UK.
The TSG team has established partnerships with many major local, national, and international brands including, Your Golf Travel, London and Manchester Golf Shows, Essex Golfer Magazine, Alamo Car Hire, Online Tee Times, Trophies&Medals.com and with over 21 clubs in Essex and the surrounding counties.
They include Woolston Manor GC, Warley Park GC, and South Essex GC.
We have also recently agreed on a deal with Group M (The largest advertising agency network in the world owned by Sir Martin Sorrell) to supply advertising inventory to their clients which include Direct Line, RBS, and Sony in 2015.
Global Advertisers that have supported the site to date include Emirates, BA, AMEX, Nike, and BMW.
In the summer of 2014, the site launched it’s first ‘above the line‘ marketing campaign on talkSPORT (London) and talkSPORT.com and Ian himself has written articles and featured in Essex Golfer Magazine and on Phoenix FM in Brentwood/Billericay.
TheSocialGolfer.com Managing Director Ian Mullins said “We are incredibly flattered to be short-listed for this award. It’s always nice to be recognised for your efforts, especially when it’s by your peers but the accolades in this case, go to the development team and the members themselves. At the end of the day, they’re the ones that make the site what it is!”
The Essex Digital Awards Winners’ Evening will take place at the home of Colchester United – the Weston Homes Community Stadium – on 23rd April 2015, with the event will be hosted by the veteran BBC, Sky, and European Tour Weekly broadcaster Robin Bailey.
