Custom AI Solutions for Private Clubs

Your team is chasing inquiries, drafting emails, and following up on late dues.
We build AI that handles it — on the systems you already run.

Operon is an AI implementation team for private clubs. We connect the tools your staff already works in — Jonas, Clubessential, ForeTees, your POS, your email — into one system that handles the work your team shouldn’t be doing. No platform to replace. No migration. We build it, integrate it, and run it for you.

What Operon Is

We’re an AI implementation company, not a software vendor.

Private clubs already run Jonas or Clubessential for member records. ForeTees for tee times. MembersFirst or a custom site for the web. A POS for F&B. A separate email platform. None of it talks to the others. That’s where the hours go — staff copying information between systems, drafting the same messages from scratch, chasing down data that should already be connected.

Operon’s job is to build the AI that closes those gaps — custom to your club, integrated with what you already own, reviewed by your team before anything reaches a member. We don’t sell you another platform. We build and operate the layer that makes the ones you have work together.

Our Commitment

Built for clubs that care about how things reach their members.

We understand private club culture. Your members expect personal service and discretion. Your staff is already stretched thin. Your board doesn’t want technology problems on their agenda.

We work with the tools you already run.

Jonas, Clubessential, ForeTees, MembersFirst, your POS, your email — we connect to them, we don’t replace them. No migration. No data move. No six-month implementation.

Everything is reviewed first.

We don’t replace your team’s judgment — we eliminate the time it takes to execute on it. Nothing reaches a member without your approval.

We speak club.

Every communication matches the tone and language your members expect. Nothing that feels automated.

Strict confidentiality.

We never share operational details, membership data, or financial information. Your club’s business is your own.

Built by a team that studied the workflows and operations of CMAA-managed clubs across the country.

What We’ve Built

AI that gives your team hours back.

Every Operon build is custom. The three examples below are common starting points — yours would be designed around where your team's hours actually go.

01 — Membership

Membership Sales Pipeline

Every inquiry that doesn’t get a fast, personal response is a prospect you’ve lost — and at $10,000–$50,000+ per initiation fee, one missed follow-up costs more than our service does in a year.

Your Operon membership team responds to every inquiry within five minutes, schedules tours automatically, and runs a thoughtful follow-up sequence customized to your club’s voice. Your Membership Director stays in the loop.

What changes

  • Prospect inquiries acknowledged in minutes, not days
  • Tour scheduling off your team’s plate
  • Consistent follow-up through the full sales cycle
  • Weekly pipeline summary so the GM always knows where things stand
Typical Result

Clubs recover 2–3 memberships per year that would have gone quiet. That’s $20,000–$150,000 in recovered revenue.

02 — Communications

Member Communications & Events

Your admin team shouldn’t spend 15 hours a week drafting event announcements, managing RSVPs, and remembering who needs a follow-up. That time belongs on the floor, with members.

Your Operon communications team maintains your event calendar, drafts outreach for every event type, and delivers the right message to the right members. Every draft is reviewed before it sends.

What changes

  • Event communications drafted automatically, ready for staff approval
  • Members receive timely, relevant outreach — not a generic blast
  • RSVP tracking and headcount handled automatically
  • Disengaged members flagged early, before they become resignations
Typical Result

10–20 hours per week returned to your admin staff. Fewer members who say “I didn’t know about that.”

03 — Billing

Billing, Dues & Delinquency

The billing cycle shouldn’t require manual reminders, uncomfortable calls, and hours of accounting follow-up every month. But at most clubs, it does.

Your Operon billing team generates statements, sends dues reminders on your schedule, and flags delinquent accounts before they become a board conversation. Every notice is approved before it goes out.

What changes

  • Friendly payment reminders sent on your timeline
  • Delinquency escalation flagged before it gets awkward
  • Real-time AR aging dashboard — no spreadsheet required
  • F&B minimum alerts before quarter-end, not after
Typical Result

Clubs billing $200k/month in dues typically recover $3,000–$10,000/month faster through automated reminders alone.

The Weekly Brief

Every Monday at 6:30 AM, one email tells your GM exactly where the club stands.

Three minutes of reading. The pipeline, the members at risk, the AR aging, and the action items waiting on you — in one place, before your first cup of coffee.

Return on Investment

The math is straightforward.

Operon is a managed service, not a software subscription. We build your club’s system, integrate it with your existing tools, and operate it month-to-month. Pricing is based on your club’s size and which automations you need.

$20k–$150k/year

Recovered initiation fees from membership follow-up that closes prospects you’d otherwise lose

$15k–$25k/year

Value of 10–20 hours/week of admin time returned to your team

$3k–$10k/month

Accelerated cash flow from faster dues collection on delinquent accounts

$5k–$20k+/saved

Retained dues from 1–2 prevented resignations through early engagement monitoring

One additional membership per year covers the cost. Everything else is margin.

The Process

What working with Operon looks like.

1

You tell us what’s not working.

Fill out a short form, give us a call, or book a Zoom directly. We’ll learn about your club, your tools, and where your team’s time goes.

2

We scope and design a solution specific to your club.

Our team audits your current stack, maps where the hours are going, and designs the AI we’d build for you — what it handles, which of your existing systems it plugs into, what it costs, and what it should return. You see the full proposal before anything is built.

3

You approve everything before it reaches a member.

We build your system. Every message, reminder, and communication is reviewed by your team before it goes out. As confidence builds, the approval process lightens.

4

We run it. You watch the results.

Once live, your system operates continuously. You get a clean dashboard showing what’s running and what it’s recovering. We handle maintenance and anything that needs attention.
