Description
What is Another Nine?
Another Nine is a premium indoor golf concept built around private, 24/7 simulator suites designed to deliver a high-end, frictionless golf experience through a highly efficient, technology-driven operating model. The business combines private golf simulator suites, rather than open bays, with 24/7 member access, best-in-class technology with a proprietary operating system (A9OS) that manages booking, access, and facility controls integrated with Trackman sim tech. The result is a premium, self-service environment where customers can play, practice, or socialize on their own schedule without the friction of traditional golf or heavily staffed entertainment venues.
What makes Another Nine different is its focus on privacy, automation, and simplicity. Unlike most concepts in this category, Another Nine is designed to operate without traditional employees. The facility is fully self-service, with members booking online, accessing suites through secure entry, and completing their experience without on-site staff. This eliminates the complexity of hiring, scheduling, and managing a team, while still delivering a high-quality customer experience. Combined with a 24/7 model and private suite design, this approach maximizes revenue per square foot and supports a membership-driven model with strong recurring revenue potential. It operates more like a subscription-based, tech-enabled facility than a traditional retail or entertainment business.
From a business standpoint, revenue is driven by monthly memberships, supported by hourly bookings and small group events. The combination of recurring revenue, no traditional staffing, and automated operations creates a highly efficient model that can be managed without a constant on-site presence. Owners are still responsible for driving local awareness, building partnerships, and ensuring a strong customer experience, but the day-to-day execution is largely system-driven. As golf participation continues to grow and off-course play becomes one of the fastest-growing segments in the industry, Another Nine is well positioned at the intersection of technology, recreation, and lifestyle, offering a modern, scalable business with a level of operational simplicity that is rare in franchising.
