Golf Event Production & Activations / Golf Division
Golf brand activations.
Closest-to-pin, long drive, hospitality builds and product demos on-site — designed to capture, not just decorate.
The short answer
A golf brand activation is a branded on-course experience — a hole contest, hospitality build, demo station or prize mechanic — built to generate participation and captured data. Tack Media designs, builds, staffs and films the activation, then hands over the lead list and content the same week.

Built, staffed and run by our own crew. No sub-contracted no-shows.
What it involves
Built to be participated in.
Every element has a mechanic attached. If it does not produce a name, a video or a demo, it does not go in the plan.
01
Hole Contests
Closest-to-pin and long drive with live leaderboards and prize logistics.
02
Hospitality Builds
Branded structures, seating, screens, F&B integration.
03
Product Demos
Fitting bays, tasting stations, test drives — staffed by people who know the product.
04
Lead Capture
QR-to-form, tablet check-in, prize entry. Exported clean to your CRM.
05
Content Capture
A crew embedded in the activation, not filming it from across the fairway.
06
Post-Event Retargeting
We run the ads to the people who touched the activation.
In plain language
What this actually means.
An activation is a booth or a course that produces content and captured leads, not just a photo op. The measure is qualified conversations per day and usable footage per hour — booked, staffed, shot and delivered by one team.

The actual stack.
Named, not implied.

What it connects to
Tools and apps we integrate with.

The kinds of integrations we build
Concrete, not conceptual.
01
Booth → CRM
Every scan and kiosk entry lands in your CRM tagged by event, station and rep before the show closes.
Kiosk + HubSpot02
Shoot → social
Vertical cutdowns from the floor posted the same day, while the audience is still in the building.
Resolve + scheduler03
Leaderboard → email
Simulator scores drive a live leaderboard and a follow-up sequence to everyone who played.
Sim API + KlaviyoQuestions people actually ask
Straight answers.
Including the price ones.
What does a convention activation cost?
Simulator rental with staffing typically runs $4,500 to $12,000 for a three-day show depending on rig count, plus capture crew if you want content out of it. We quote itemised, not as one number.
How early do we need to book?
Six to eight weeks for LA Convention Center and Anaheim during peak season. Drayage and electrical deadlines are what actually bind, not our calendar.
Do you handle the permits and the union labour?
We handle the plan and the paperwork and tell you exactly which line items the venue will force. We do not pretend union rules are optional.
