We meet him to talk about the golf pass and the assessment one year after! G.M: What was your motivation about this Golf Pass with France and Italy? B.L: This pass is original for several reasons. At the beginning, there was a big request from Italian golf players. It associates 8 French courses (in the Var and on the Riviera) to 8 Italian (in Piemont and Ligurie). We began to meet the chairman of Cueno Golf Course in Italy and together we created and a tourist dynamic. G.M: Who are the other people who helped you? B.L: Dominique Charpentier, Alpes Maritimes Tourism Comity Manager, helps us to promote the pass and for sale at the associated clubs and tour operators who specialise in golf: a French (Greens du Monde with Daniel Rémiot) and an Italian (Turgranda). GM: How did you promote the Golf Pass and how many sales? B.L: With this pass an award is launched within the 16 participating clubs: the Jean-Claude Novaro trophy, is the name given to the award after an Azurean. Different challenges are presented to each club and 6 players are selected and they play like Ryder Cup Tournament!, The golf players met up for a final once in France, once in Italy. For 2007, the final will take place at St Endreol on 13th and 14th October. The commercial success was an excellent surprise. We sold several hundreds golf pass. G.M: You created another Golf Pass on the French Riviera. Which is the difference with the other pass? What are advantages? B.L: The pass is sold for 250 € in the form of a booklet with 5 tickets representing 50 € per ticket. When the player presents this booklet an immediate 10% reduction is taken off the green fee. Either he goes over the 50 € and the rest is to be paid in cash, or the cost is under 50 € so he can use the difference to buy practice tokens, hire a minicab, put it towards his lunch or to pay for a drink upon his return. For example: At St-Endreol the green fee costs 69 € less 10% you pay 61€. The customer pays with a ticket more 11€. Another example, in Italy, on the Bricco Golf Course, the same customer will obtain with a ticket: the green fee 27 € (30€ less 10%), the golfer meal, a drink and maybe more. This unique pricing system gives a sort of reduction off the green fees so the difference can be compensated for in the use of caddies, minicars and other golfing equipment. A golf player is ready to pay more for a prestigious course; however with this system we offer the possibility to discover less known counties.
