Swinging into the Spotlight — Golfoy’s Digital Brand Uplift

Client: Golfoy.com – India’s Largest Online Golf Store
PR Partner: AtomComm
Timeline: 4 Months (Phase 1)

Objectives

Making Golf Cool, Digital, and Discoverable Across India

Golfoy.com, India’s largest online golf equipment and fashion store, approached AtomComm with a clear mandate — to scale their brand presence beyond niche golf communities and reposition the sport as aspirational, accessible, and digitally native. As India’s younger consumers leaned into luxury wellness and niche sports, Golfoy wanted to lead the narrative.

The brand’s goals included:

  • Lifestyle Repositioning: Make golf appealing to aspirational urban youth through fashion, content, and performance.
  • PR & Digital Awareness: Move beyond product selling to build a lifestyle-driven brand that attracts golfers, influencers, and new entrants to the sport.
  • Thought Leadership: Position Golfoy as the epicenter of India’s growing golf ecosystem — from gear to tournaments.

New Customer Acquisition: Drive top-of-funnel traffic via earned media, collaborations, and organic buzz.
