2 Ways Golf Relates To Business, Social Networking and Twitter
Two passions of mine are golf and business. These two are very similar, especially how it relates in the on-line world. As we become a more digitally connected society, it is important to build business relationships online in the virtual world as well as the golf course. A lot of business deals believe it or not are done on many golf courses around the world. I have come up with some unique ways golf relates to social networking for business. I am interested in your feedback so please let me know if these are sufficient points.
1. Your business takes time to grow, just like your golf game
No one can go out and shoot 72 their first time. Just like in business, no one becomes a success overnight. It takes years of building up. Some newbie golfers go to golf camp to learn the basics or possibly a golf boot camp for the fast track approach. Just like this company in San Diego called Social Networking San Diego gives the fast track to social media and social networking for business purposes. The same applies in online businesses. The point is You MUST get educated on how to do business online if you are to play the business game online.
2. Golfing is usually done with friends, business partners, or colleagues
I cant tell you how many times i have been golfing with people i enjoy spending time with. I have been golfing with clients, partners, and of course family and friends. The thing to understand is golf is relationship building just like social networking. It takes time and those who are in it for the short run or are looking at twitter negatively just don't get it. Twitter is just a communication tool to build relationships online. Think of it like a virtual networking group on demand.
