Cut Your CAC by 20% in 90 Days. Keep Your Margins. Lose The Guesswork.
The Fairway Growth Engine™ is a done-for-you growth system built exclusively for DTC golf brands. We plug in as your dedicated growth partner and systematically drive down customer acquisition costs without increasing your ad budget or discounting your way to growth.
Struggling to Grow Profitably?
Ad spend rises. CAC rises with it.
You're not spending recklessly, you're spending exactly the way every agency told you to. More budget, more channels, more creative. But every new dollar seems to cost more to get back. Scaling feels like a treadmill going faster but taking you nowhere.
Traffic arrives and leaves without buying.
Your ads are driving clicks. Your website is doing its job... sort of. But the gap between "people who visit" and "people who convert" keeps widening. And the worse part? You don't know why.
Customers buy once and disappear.
Golf is a repeat-purchase category. Equipment upgrades. Apparel. Accessories. Your customers should be coming back, but most aren't. You're paying to replace them with new ones over and over, eroding the economics every single month.
Revenue looks strong. Margins don't.
The top line is moving. But CAC is rising with it. LTV isn't growing fast enough. And profitable scale — the kind where growth actually feels like growth — stays just out of reach. Every review, the number that doesn't lie is contribution margin.
The problem isn't your product.
It's your growth system.
Most DTC golf brands are running a collection of disconnected tactics: some paid ads here, some email there, maybe a retargeting campaign. Tactics without a system don't compound. They just cost money. And the longer you operate without one, the more expensive it gets to build one later.
The Fairway Growth Engine™
A growth system designed specifically for golf companies to drive predictable, profitable revenue, utilzing The ACE System.
Acquire
Most golf brands run broad acquisition campaigns with inconsistent creative and no real ICP clarity. We fix that from day one.
Strategic paid acquisition across all channels to reach golf buyers where they are. Multi-platform campaigns optimized for your ideal customer profile.
The Outcome: A paid acquisition engine that knows exactly who to target, what to say, and what it should cost to bring them in.
Convert
Traffic is only valuable if it converts. Most golf brands are leaving significant ad spend on the table at the conversion layer.
Conversion optimization at every touchpoint. From landing pages to checkout, we ensure your traffic converts into paying customers.
The Outcome: Higher conversion rates across the board, turning the traffic you're already paying for into more customers, without spending more to get them.
Engage
The most expensive part of growing a DTC golf brand is replacing customers who don't come back. We make sure yours do.
Lifecycle marketing and CRM automation to keep customers engaged and buying. Increase LTV through strategic retention campaigns.
The Outcome: Customers who buy more, buy again, and refer others. Driving LTV growth that makes your CAC numbers look better and better over time.

What Our Satisfied Customers Are Saying About Us
"We couldn't recommend him more"
Palm has been working with Carlos & Coast Summit Growth for several years now. While the decision at first was motivated by budget, the sustained relationship has been for the diligence and reliability of detailed information, strategy and implementation helping us navigate the incredibly difficult but necessary ecosystem of paid media that we rely on so much.
Carlos has always been deeply passionate about performance and growth for our business as though he’s part of our team not just an extension of it. We couldn’t recommend him more.
Joe Ciafardoni
Co-Founder at Palm Golf Co.
"I'd recommend him to any brand"
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Carlos for nearly 5 years and he’s played a major role in taking our business from ~$100K to $2MM per year. Beyond his strong command of attribution, account structure, and martech, he’s collaborative, proactive, and incredibly reliable. I’d recommend him to any brand looking for a true growth partner.
Justin Junior
Co-Founder at Palm Golf Co.
"He approached [our growth] like a partner, not a vendor"
RWTP Supply Co. came to Carlos & Coast Summit Growth as a small brand just getting its footing in paid media. We needed someone who could not only build our Meta campaigns from scratch but also help us understand the strategy behind them.
Carlos showed genuine investment in our growth by walking us through budget strategy, optimization priorities, and the necessary prerequisites for maximizing ad performance. He approached it like a partner, not a vendor. For any brand navigating the complexity of paid social, we'd point them to Coast Summit without hesitation.

MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO
I've Managed $50M+ in Spend.
Golf Is Where I Choose
to Put My Name.
I've managed over $50 million in ad spend across dozens of brands and verticals. I've seen what a well-built growth system does when it's working, and I've watched how much money gets wasted when it isn't.
Several years ago, I started working with Palm Golf Co. At the time, they were doing around $100K per year. We built their acquisition and retention system from the ground up: the right channels, the right creative strategy, the right conversion infrastructure. Four years later, they've grown well beyond 7-figures and don't have any plans on stopping.
That experience — along with work alongside Club Glove and other notable brands — taught me something I couldn't unlearn: the golf market is different. The buyer is different. The purchase cycle is different. The way loyalty works is different. Generic growth programs don't translate.
Coast Summit Growth isn't a general-purpose agency that works with golf brands. We are a growth system built specifically for how golf buyers think and behave, and we only take on partners where we know the system will perform.

READY TO GIVE US A TRY?
Every Month Without a System Is a Month You're Paying for It.
The golf brands that build a real growth system now are the ones with the data advantage, the retention flywheel, and the CAC efficiency 12 months from now.
The ones that wait are spending those same 12 months paying to acquire customers they won't keep, running campaigns that don't compound, and watching contribution margin stay flat while revenue grows.
There's no neutral position here. The absence of a system has a cost; it just shows up on a different line of your P&L.
❌ Ad spend that generates less than it should
❌ Customers who buy once and don't come back
❌ Competitors building the infrastructure you don't have yet
❌ 12 months of learning you could have had behind you

Partner Spots Currently Available
We're selective about who we take on. Not just because capacity limits it, but because we only partner with brands where we're genuinely confident the Fairway Growth Engine™ will perform. Right now, we have capacity for 3 new golf brand partners.

Frequently Asked Questions
We've tried paid ads before and it didn't work. Why is this different?
The channel is rarely the problem, it's the system around it. Most failed paid programs lack the right creative strategy, the right conversion layer underneath them, and the retention infrastructure to make the long-term math work. We don't just run ads. We build the complete front-end and back-end system that makes paid acquisition profitable at scale.
Golf is seasonal. How does this work during the off-season?
Most brands treat the off-season as downtime. We treat it as a compounding opportunity. Off-season is when we build loyalty, run win-back campaigns, develop the creative infrastructure, and set up acquisition campaigns that fire at full performance the moment demand picks back up. Your off-season is one of the most underutilized revenue levers in the category.
We already work with a paid media agency. Do we need to replace them?
Not necessarily. The Fairway Growth Engine™ is a strategic growth layer. We can work alongside an existing media buyer, take over execution entirely, or supplement where the gaps are. After an initial audit, we'll tell you exactly what makes sense. What we won't do is bill you for something you don't need.
How is working with you different from hiring someone in-house?
A full-time senior growth hire at this level costs $100K–$150K+ per year, takes 6-12 months to ramp, and typically comes without the cross-brand pattern recognition. We bring $50M+ in managed spend experience, a proven system refined across real golf brands, and we're operational from day one. You get the output of a senior growth team without the overhead of building one.
What's the minimum ad spend required to work with you?
We work with brands running $20K+ in monthly paid media. Below that threshold, the full system - acquisition, conversion, and retention working together - doesn't have the volume to compound the way it needs to. If you're not there yet, we'll tell you honestly and point you in the right direction.
How quickly will we see results?
Most brands see meaningful CAC improvement within the first 45-60 days as we tighten targeting, sharpen creative, and optimize the conversion layer. The full compounding effect - acquisition and retention working together - typically hits stride at 60-90 days. That's when the real numbers start to show up.
