Testimonials

“We purchased two greens mowers, a rough mower and a fairway mower from the Golf Asset Marketplace auction site. Since we are a VGM Club Member we saved the 2% Buyer’s Premium.  It was easy and we saved thousands of dollars on our purchases. The quality of the equipment exceeded our expectations and we took full advantage of the pre-approved financing for auction purchases as well!  We will be back to purchase more in the future!”

"I have been involved with VGM Club at several different properties and have been using their services for nearly four years here at IBIS Golf & Country Club. I've had the opportunity to work with several individuals at VGM Club and everyone has been quite helpful and professional. We have enjoyed a wide variety of savings in many different areas and departments.

We are currently using their relationships in golf course maintenance to purchase golf course accessories, seed and supplies. Our golf shop has also been making purchases through VGM Club. More recently, our facility manager has taken advantage of the buying opportunities and food and beverage does as well.

One aspect of purchasing through VGM Club that I appreciate is that on many bigger items, I will let them know what I need, and they will shop it for me, comparing different vendors with similar products. Being a member of VGM Club has definitely saved my properties thousands of dollars."

"VGM Club is absolutely one of the most professional companies you could hope to do business with. And they`re consistently calling us wondering, `how can we do better`? VGM Club`s response to our needs is nothing short of stellar."

"We have found the staff at VGM Club and their participating vendors to be very helpful and pleasant to work with. We look forward to a long relationship with VGM Club."

"Three things stand out when I think of Heritage Golf Group`s partnership with VGM Club. 1) The support and energy of the staff has been exceptional. 2) Our transition into using VGM Club vendor partners has been very smooth. 3) We saved thousands of dollars renovating the clubhouse at Valencia Country Club on a carpet purchase through VGM Club`s contract with Masland.

"When I talk to my fellow superintendents about VGM Club, I simply explain it as getting national account pricing for the independent facility. The savings we realized on our fertilizer purchases more than paid for our dues. The savings on other products and the service we experienced were beyond expectation. We look forward to lasting and prosperous relationship between VGM Club and Hazeltine National Golf Club."

"The amount of business we do and what we`re going to save with one manufacturer justified the facility getting involved with VGM Club. We are investigating other manufacturers with VGM Club and what they can provide for us in the form of an additional benefit."

"I have seen many buying groups in the golf industry come and go. Honestly, I didn`t see why things would be any different with VGM Club. However, in only their second year, VGM Club began to bring on more and more companies that I was using and could take advantage of. I have been loyal member ever since, and will continue to support VGM Club."

"We joined VGM Club in March of 2009. We reviewed the savings opportunities for Lubbock Country Club based on our current suppliers which were also partners of VGM Club.  Here are just a few of the savings we uncovered: Our Alsco contract was up for renewal and the savings alone by switching to VGM Club pricing was in the thousands per month! We had our Sprint Nextel lines tagged with the VGM Club discount of 15%, for a $1,230 savings in six months. Our savings from Grainger has been over $300 in six months. Those are just three of the ten suppliers we were using prior to our membership and the savings we have accrued. This is in addition to our food and beverage cost reductions and cash rebates. I have found the staff responsive, the supplier information informative and the program very flexible to meet our individual purchasing needs."

"These days even the most sophisticated clubs are looking to conserve costs in every expense category. And every dollar is important. It is good to know VGM Club is there, with a variety of products and services that smart managers can use to enhance their bottom line. Whether your club is member-owned or developer subsidized you are probably multi-tasking at every level of management, so why not also be multi-saving as well, by looking at VGM Club and its vendors to help with every spending decision? It works for my two clubs, several of our affiliates and it can work for yours too."

"Upper Montclair Country Club worked with VGM Club for the first time this year and the all our contact has been very positive. The personal service is outstanding. The enrollment process and one-on-one assistance was excellent. Their vendor section is always expanding and we were able to benefit from additional savings throughout the year. Processing of required forms is easy and very fast. The VGM Club membership is of great value not only in terms of dollars and cents, but also in regards to product variety, especially in the country club industry. I strongly urge you to become a VGM Club member and begin reaping the rewards today!"

"As our club continues to work through these economic challenges, our vendor partner VGM Club sets the industry standard for pricing and customer service, helping our club with all areas of its operations."

"I have compared VGM Club to other programs and have found there is no comparison. They have provided a high level of customer service, notified me of savings opportunities and helped Lehigh Country Club maximize our benefits. I have a high regard for VGM Club and support their company wholeheartedly. I would recommend them to any club interested in helping their bottom line."

"The Elkridge Club joined VGM Club late in 2008. With very little effort and a modest price tag of $480 a year, the Club has received over $3,000 in discounts or rebates. There are so many vendors and suppliers under the VGM Club umbrella, taking part in such a group is a must for any private club manager."

"VGM Club has really made an impact to our Club’s bottom line. The staff at VGM Club is highly experienced, extremely detail-orientated and always building new relationships with first class vendors who will improve your operations. VGM Club’s website is cutting edge and user friendly to keep current with daily discount opportunities. It has made our staff better decision makers during these challenging economic times. You need to be using VGM Club at your Club!"

"Our VGM Club connection has saved us more than $4,000 and gives us another way to increase our bottom-line."
