About Market Harborough Golf Club
Market Harborough Golf Club is a well established golf club offering a high quality golfing experience for members, visitors and society groups. With a thriving membership base, busy competition calendar and clubhouse facilities, effective communication is essential to ensuring the smooth running of the club and delivering exceptional service to members and guests.
To modernise its communications infrastructure and improve the way calls are managed, Market Harborough Golf Club partnered with Barton Telecom Services to implement a new hosted VoIP phone system.
Requirements
Market Harborough Golf Club receives a significant volume of telephone enquiries relating to memberships, tee bookings, visitor enquiries, competitions, events and clubhouse services.
The club required a modern telephone solution that would provide greater flexibility, improve call handling and deliver a more professional experience for callers. The existing system lacked many of the advanced features available through modern cloud based telephony platforms.
The club also wanted a scalable solution that would support future operational requirements while simplifying the management of its communications.

Solution
Following a consultation to understand the club’s communication requirements, Barton Telecom designed and deployed a cloud hosted VoIP phone system tailored to the needs of Market Harborough Golf Club.
The new platform introduced advanced call handling functionality, enabling incoming calls to be directed efficiently to the appropriate department or team member. Features such as automated greetings, voicemail functionality and intelligent call routing help ensure members and visitors receive a professional and seamless experience when contacting the club.
To maintain continuity, existing telephone numbers were successfully ported to the new system, ensuring members and customers could continue using familiar contact details throughout the migration process.
The implementation was carefully planned and completed with minimal disruption to the club’s daily operations.

Staff can now handle enquiries more efficiently, helping to improve responsiveness and ensure members, visitors and prospective customers receive the assistance they need quickly. The enhanced call routing capabilities have streamlined communications and reduced the risk of missed calls during busy periods.
The cloud based platform also provides scalability and flexibility, allowing the club to easily add users, locations or additional features as operational requirements evolve.
By implementing a modern hosted VoIP phone system, Barton Telecom delivered a future ready communications solution that enhances customer service, improves operational efficiency and supports Market Harborough Golf Club’s commitment to providing an outstanding experience for members and visitors.
