In the business world, golf offers the opportunity to accomplish more for less. If you aren’t taking advantage of golf to grow your business and your business network, you are missing out. Men have used golf as a business tool for a long time, but women have been slow to get on board.
There are a number of “business golf” opportunities including a simple afternoon of golf, participation in a large corporate outing or just spending a lunch hour on the driving range. And there are a whole lot of reasons why you want/need to be a part of the golf scene.
TIME: You will spend considerable personal time with current and potential clients.
NETWORKING: You have the potential to substantially increase your network of business contacts.
RAPPORT: You will establish a special camaraderie when enjoying a game of golf together.
INSIGHT: You will learn a lot about the person you’re with.
SHOWCASE: You can showcase your own personality and character.
GLOBAL: You can transcend language and cultural barriers.
Take all this into consideration and make plans to be a part of the business of golf.
