Golf Tournament: Marketing Campaign Strategy Guide

Golf tournaments represent one of the most valuable relationship-building events in the Habitat calendar. When sponsors, donors, and community leaders come together on the green, it creates the perfect opportunity to build connections that last long after the final putt.

But let’s be honest – when you’re busy coordinating tee times, organizing raffle prizes, and ensuring everyone finds the right cart, social media and marketing documentation often falls to the bottom of the priority list. Without a clear plan, you miss capturing the powerful moments that could fuel your communications for months to come.

This Campaign Strategy Guide is designed to:

  • Turn one day of golf into months of content with a comprehensive strategy for before, during, and after your tournament
  • Save hours of planning time with ready-to-implement post ideas and templates
  • Create a repeatable system you can use year after year (and share with volunteers!)
  • Capture the right moments with detailed shot lists you can hand to anyone with a camera
  • Maximize sponsor visibility with strategic social media coordination that strengthens partnerships
  • Build a content library of authentic community moments that tell your Habitat story
