How pickleball clubs can boost revenue and attract new members through organized corporate events
Many pickleball clubs overlook a significant opportunity to boost revenue and attract new members: corporate events. With companies constantly seeking unique team-building activities, pickleball offers the perfect blend of accessibility, physical activity, and social engagement.
Why Corporate Events Are a Huge Win:
Off-Peak Revenue: Most corporate events occur during weekday afternoons or early evenings—typically slower periods for clubs.
Premium Pricing: Companies have established budgets for team-building activities and will pay premium rates for well-organized experiences.
New Member Opportunities: Have membership information and special first-time member offers ready.
The barrier preventing many clubs from pursuing corporate events is the perceived operational complexity. Modern pickleball management software eliminates this concern.
Streamlining the Process:
Run Crazy Eights or Round Robin Formats: These formats work perfectly for mixed-skill corporate groups, ensuring everyone plays multiple games with different partners.
Utilize Guest-Friendly Software: Quke’s platform allows participants to log in as guests via QR code—no app downloads or account creation required.
Sell Staffing Services: Offer to manage the event and utilize Quke’s software. You can charge a premium and let Quke handle the details.
Pro Tip: Create a simple one-page “Corporate Event Package” PDF that outlines your offerings, pricing, and the seamless experience you provide. This makes it easy for HR departments and event planners to get internal approval.
