Motocaddy offers seasonal £50 cashback promotion


M


otocaddy is offering a special seasonal promotion to reward


golfers who buy a Lithium powered trolley, with an exclusive £50 cashback offer. From today, any golfer opting


to upgrade their Motocaddy trolley purchase to Lithium – including the latest S7 Remote model – can claim £50 in cashback directly from Motocaddy. The promotion, which is seen as the first of its kind from a manufacturer in the golf industry, runs through to 24th December 2015. “Given recent accelerated


growth in sales of Lithium batteries, thanks to the impact of our ‘Time to Go Lithium’ campaign, we expect this promotion to be our most successful ever,” said sales director Neil Parker. “Although cashback promotions are commonplace in the consumer goods market, we believe this is a first for the golf sector and are thrilled to give our retail partners this opportunity at one of the traditionally busiest periods for golf trolley sales.” The biggest consumer


promotion ever run by Motocaddy coincides with more golfers choosing a Lithium battery to power their electric trolley,

because it provides a reliable, longer-lasting and cost-effective power source. Over 60% of Motocaddy trolleys sold this year have been equipped with Lithium batteries, a figure that has almost doubled from this time last year. “The promotion is being supported by a major advertising campaign,” said marketing manager Oliver Churcher. “It includes high-profile consumer press, digital and email adverts, backed by a wide range of POS materials for our trade customers to take full advantage of the promotion.”
