A quick walkthrough of the CAPTURE dashboard, email sync, and opportunity management.
What Is CAPTURE?
CAPTURE is a CRM built for golf clubs. It's the single place where every enquiry, every conversation, and every follow-up lives — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Instead of juggling spreadsheets, email inboxes, and sticky notes, everything is in one system:
- Central contact database with tags and segmentation
- Visual drag-and-drop pipelines for Membership, Societies, Events, and more
- Web forms with GDPR consent built in
- Email campaigns and broadcasts
- SMS with two-way conversations
- Automated workflows — auto-responses, follow-up sequences, staff alerts
- Dashboards and reporting
- Booking calendars with Outlook and Gmail sync
- Conversation inbox — emails, SMS, and calls in one view
- Mobile app so your team can work from anywhere
How Your Account Is Set Up
When we launch your CAPTURE account, everything is pre-configured and ready to go. You don't need to build anything from scratch.
Every CAPTURE account is built from the same template, which means tags, fields, pipelines, forms, and automations are consistent across every club. This is important — it means things work the same way everywhere, and when we help you, we know exactly how your account is structured.
Your club will also receive an onboarding guide with the full details specific to your setup — including every tag, every form, your data imports, and your Smart Lists.
Here's what's already set up:
- Tags — labels that organise contacts by source, interest, compliance, and more. Applied automatically by forms and workflows.
- Custom Fields & Values — golf-specific fields (membership type, handicap, CDH number) and your club's details (name, phone, staff) that personalise emails and forms.
- Forms & Automations — web forms that create contacts, apply tags, trigger emails, and alert your team — all automatically.
- Data Imports — how your existing data is migrated in and how to import new contacts yourself.
- Smart Lists — saved filters for targeting the right people when sending campaigns.
- Conversation Snippets — quick-reply templates your team can use to save time.
Each topic has its own page in the Your Account section of this help centre. Your onboarding guide covers exactly what's been set up for your club specifically.
