CHARLESTON, S.C. – Buffalo Groupe, LLC, an award-winning marketing agency that connects golf, hospitality, and real estate brands with escape-seeking consumers, has announced the launch of Private Club Studios, a new fully integrated marketing offering built exclusively for private clubs.
Built on the proven success of Private Club Films, acquired by Buffalo Groupe in 2025, and amplified by the agency’s decades of golf-audience expertise, Private Club Studios brings together best-in-class video storytelling, research, branding, marketing, lead generation, communications, web, experiential strategy and more under a dedicated partner purpose-built for the private club industry.
“What sets one private club apart from another is the delivery of its experience to its members and community,” said Buffalo Groupe President and Chief Marketing Officer Emily Clark. “Private Club Studios was built to meet clubs where they are in their lifecycle, delivering the right mix of storytelling, branding, communications and marketing to create meaningful impact at every stage.”
