What can clubs learn?

The rankings show that high-performing clubs don’t all communicate in the same way.

• Some excel at attracting new followers.
• Others consistently create engaging content.
• Some spark conversation.
• Others produce fewer posts that simply perform better.

Success isn’t about copying another club.

It’s about understanding what you’re trying to achieve and building the capability to communicate consistently over time.

Remember that Australian Sailing has produced a Marketing Hub for Clubs and classes to help boost marketing, communications, and social media presence. The Hub provides access to practical tools, tips, collateral, guides, and step-by-step resources to support effective promotion.
