Your marketplace profile: getting found on golfly.nl
What is your marketplace profile?
On golfly.nl, golfers can search for coaches nearby. You fill in your profile for that under Admin → Promotion, tab Marketplace: the form on the left, and on the right a preview that updates as you type. A club account does not see that tab.
Which fields are required?
- One-sentence summary (Dutch, maximum 200 characters). For example: "Putting, short game and juniors. At Golfcenter Seve since 2018."
- Bio (Dutch, maximum 2000 characters). An empty line starts a new paragraph.
- At least one speciality: Putting, Short game, Swing, Bunker, Course management, Mental game, Club fitting or Golf fitness.
- At least one language: Dutch, English, German or French.
- Coach since: the year you started.
The English fields, the Pull quote (one punchy sentence) and Who it is for (Beginners, GVB track, Advanced, Juniors, Ladies) are optional. Click a button to switch a choice on or off.
The Save button only works once all five required fields are filled in; otherwise "Not complete yet" appears above with what is missing. You cannot save partway through, so fill in the form in one go.
Photo
Your photo comes from Admin → Site settings; you cannot upload it here. Without a photo, golfly.nl shows your initials.
When do you appear on golfly.nl?
A complete profile is necessary, but not enough. Golfly also has to give your profile a public address and link it to your club; that does not happen in your admin. If you do not appear on golfly.nl after filling it in, email support@golfly.nl. Leaving golfly.nl is also handled via support; there is no button for it.
What does a searcher see?
A searcher enters a postcode and a radius (5, 10, 25 or 50 km) and can filter by Speciality, Who it is for and Language. Results are sorted by distance from your club, measured as the crow flies from the centre of the postcode area.
On your card in the results you see: the distance, "Coach since year", your name, your club, your Dutch summary, your specialities and "from €lowest price of your active lesson types", with the button View lessons & prices. That opens your profile page with your bio, your pull-quote and your languages.
"Suitable for" is only a filter and is not shown anywhere. Your English summary does not appear in the search results; English texts only appear on your profile page for English-speaking visitors.
Frequently asked questions
Why am I not on golfly.nl yet?
First check that the profile is complete and saved. If it is, email support@golfly.nl; Golfly still has to link your profile to your club and a public address.
How many specialities and languages can I choose?
As many as are listed: all eight specialities and all four languages can be chosen at the same time.
Do I have to fill in the English fields?
No. If you leave them empty, English-speaking visitors see your Dutch text.
Which price appears on my card?
The lowest price of your active lesson types, automatically. If you want a different "from" price, change your lesson types.
