Palm Bespoke — Asia’s Most Exclusive Golf Travel Club for High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs)
Silvia from Palm Bespoke reached out to me with a very specific challenge.
Palm Bespoke isn’t a mass-market golf business.
It’s an elite Golf & Lifestyle Membership designed for:
- Visionaries
- High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWIs)
- Corporate leaders
- Ultra-affluent golfers
Their members pay for:
- Private golf clubs
- Priority tee times
- Curated luxury travel
- Long-term stays across China, Vietnam, Chiang Mai, Japan, and Korea
This meant one thing:
Spray-and-pray outreach would destroy the brand.
We needed a system that:
- Targets only wealthy, serious golfers
- Feels bespoke, not automated
- Scales without Silvia manually messaging hundreds of people
The Core Problem
Palm Bespoke already knew where their audience was:
- Private LinkedIn golf groups
- Country club–focused communities
- Corporate golfer circles
But they faced four constraints:
- LinkedIn manual outreach doesn’t scale
- HNWIs are extremely sensitive to spam
- Messaging must feel personal and high-status
- Outreach must run daily without human fatigue
My job was to design a system that finds, qualifies, warms, and converts affluent golfers — quietly.
The Solution: A 4-Layer LinkedIn Growth Engine for HNWI Golfers
1) Scraping Multiple LinkedIn Golf Groups (Audience Intelligence Layer)
Goal: Identify real golfers with spending power — not hobbyists
We started where affluent golfers already self-identify: LinkedIn Groups.
Tools Used
- Apify — LinkedIn Group Member Scraper
- Make.com — workflow orchestration
Scraper used:

What We Extract
- Full names
- Job titles
- Companies
- Location
- Group affiliation (golf-specific)
This instantly filters for:
- Executives
- Founders
- Directors
- Corporate leaders who golf
The output is structured lead data, not noise.
2) Auto-Connect & Auto-Message (High-Touch Outreach Layer)
Goal: Start conversations without looking automated or desperate
Once the lead list is ready, we move into connection and messaging automation — carefully.
Tools Used
- PhantomBuster
- TheBoomerang
- LinkedIn Sales Navigator (for higher limits & precision)
- OpenRouter AI (message intelligence)
How It Works
a) Auto-Connect (No Manual Clicking)
- LinkedIn connection requests are sent automatically
- Daily caps respected to avoid account restrictions
Requests are personalized using:
- Job title
- Golf group context
- Location
b) AI-Personalized First Message
Once a connection is accepted:
- OpenRouter AI generates a high-status, conversational message
References:
- Golf interest
- Region
- Lifestyle positioning (not salesy)
- Includes a soft CTA, never a hard sell
This is critical for HNWIs:
You don’t pitch them. You invite them.
3) Consistent LinkedIn Posting to Build Authority & Trust
Goal: Warm leads before and after outreach
HNWI buyers always check your profile before replying.
So we built a LinkedIn content automation system.
Tools Used
- Airtable
- OpenRouter AI
- PhantomBuster
Content System Breakdown
a) Post Approval Interface
- AI drafts posts in advance
- Silvia approves or rejects them in Airtable
- Brand control is never lost
b) Automatic Post Creation
Content is generated from:
- Latest golf news
- Country club updates
- Luxury golf destinations
Positions Palm Bespoke as:
- Insider-only
- Curated
- Invitation-worthy
c) Automatic Lead Magnet Disbursal
When someone comments on a post:
- They automatically receive a DM
The DM includes:
- A PDF
- An offer
- Or a private invite
- Follow-ups are pre-programmed
This quietly turns engagement into conversations.
4) Cold Email for Secondary Conversion (Quiet Backchannel)
Goal: Reach decision-makers who don’t respond on LinkedIn
Some HNWIs never reply on LinkedIn — but always read email.
Tools Used
- PhantomBuster / Apify
- OpenRouter AI
- TheBoomerang
- Airtable
Flow
- LinkedIn groups are scraped again
-
Profiles are enriched with emails using:
https://apify.com/dev_fusion/linkedin-profile-scraper - Lead list is uploaded to Airtable (manual control retained)
OpenRouter AI writes:
- Deeply personalized cold emails
- Referencing role, region, and golf context
Emails are sent via specialized cold email infrastructure
- Optimized for primary inbox delivery
- Not spam folders
These emails feel like private introductions, not campaigns.

Why This Worked for Palm Bespoke

- Exclusivity beats urgency
Palm Bespoke didn’t just reach golfers.
They reached the right golfers at scale, without looking automated.
