Testimonials

We strive for client satisfaction in every engagement we undertake. Read below to see what our clients say about us.

GBAS have assisted Burleigh Golf Club with a Strategic Assessment & Golf Operations Structure Review. This provided the Board with a clear understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the Club, opportunities for improvement, and leverage points for greater success.

The data analysis of the prior 5 years measured our business against other "like" clubs. The presentation to our Board of Directors provided the pulse check to assist confident decision making, and the reports provided are a wonderful reference for ongoing decision making since that time.

GBAS remains an ongoing sounding board for key decision making and reassurance of our strategic direction. I would have no hesitation in recommending GBAS to representatives of any Australian golf club who desire a clear understanding of their financial and services performance, and a roadmap to greater future success.

General Manager

Gold Coast, Queensland

GBAS did an outstanding job last night. They were across the detail, were centric toward our club, but knew plenty about the others and so had good and solid context of the broad subject matter.

I really appreciated the frankness of views, insights and view of what is required going forward. Their (GBAS) analysis of our data, benchmarked to similar clubs was insightful and potentially helpful as we plan ahead. Very good.
