The key action phrase in today’s business networking arena should be ..Calm Down. I have business people jump me everyday who first want me to look at their product or service before they introduce themselves. Why? The reasons are many..ranging from seeming desperation to just being excited about what they do. Their action does not work, especially if what they offer is of limited appeal or need.
This type of overly aggressive manor of promoting a business has pushed business networking to have to change. The consumer is clearly in control both for the B2B and B2C arenas. What consumers are demanding from people approaching them is .. Who are You? Can I trust you? Even if the businesses have nothing of interest to each other, the basic question becomes..Can I trust You if I connect you to someone I know who needs your product/services? Business Networking has moved away from the 30 second commercial to a more need to.. tell me who you are then tell me what you do.. style of communicating.
Business Golf is really catching on to help answer this basic business networking question… Can I Trust You? Golf breaks down the barriers dishonest people put in front of their true character. Golf strips away the shield many business people throw up to hide a problem with a product or the personality. How?..
Golf has some inherent properties that only are in golf. Honesty is the core of golf and integrity reins supreme to the product golf produces. Combine golf with a business network of business golfers and the trust factor improves.
Business Networking with Business Golf takes the trust to higher levels of interest. The person referring someone they can feel good they are helping and the trust that someone has of being referred by someone can calm them to know the person they are meeting is trusted.
OH, there will always be someone who will break the rules but over all that person will eventually be run out of the golf community if from nothing but lack of interest from the rest of the community. There will always be businesses who products or services are best promoted in the yellow pages so business golf is not for everyone..but it could be.
Business Golf..the most misunderstood business tool in the golf bag.
