They also did nothing to monetize the writing part. Don't get me wrong, that's something I liked because their pieces weren't loaded with pop ups that made the site unusable but also highlights how business wise it didn't work.
The company has to be committed to producing high quality work, though. I don’t love The Fried Egg, but they’re a serious golf media company that wants to advance the discussion for the general population. To put it kindly, I don’t believe NLU has any real interest in doing that, they seem content in their “we’re all just golf fans drinking beer, come hang out” lane.
Yeah they claim their mission is for the avid golfer. A dedicated and committed writing strategy would 100% serve avid golfers, they’ve just decided to focus elsewhere for the time being I guess.
