Business Golf

* Prospective customers
* Clients
* Referrals
* Recruiting key employees
* Developing businesses partners, vendors, suppliers, etc

Business encourages golf as a natural side for networking and to develop relationships. corporate america spends billions of dollars and thousands of hours on business golf as it's no.1 pastime today. I've heard about many big business deals done at the golfing range and I don't see that changing anytime soon. It's a sport that's enjoyed all over the world and it's definitely not a cheap sport to get into. You got your clubs and your entry fee which could cost you the amount of a new car depending on where you play. It's not a sport for the poor and that is probably the appeal for business men or women because one must be serious about the game if they want to get anywhere.

Be on your best behavior when playing with a client. Business golf can be a very lucrative initiative for companies today, but it can also wreck a big deal if not handled properly. Your attitude on the golf course and your reaction to how you are playing may cause a client to lose respect for you, and that may keep you from closing a deal. Dont force the business discussion. You dont want to start talking shop before you tee off the first hole. Take some time to get to know your client, enjoy being on the golf course and discuss topics aside from business. There is a general rule that it is safe to talk about business between the fifth and 15th holes.

The most important thing to realize is that people will remember how enjoyable it was to play golf with you; no one will remember what score you shot.

I was an engineer in silicon valley for 6 years before getting laid off just recently. After getting a nice severance package, I decided to take the time and money and travel the world. After that experience of a lifetime, I have come back to the business world, but no longer working to build someone else's business, but my own by forming my own corporation.

The Dean of Instruction is a Hurricane - Is Hurricane Dean Headed for the Gulf?

hurricane Dean is not only full of hot air, he seems to be upset with his students, while not lacking any personal work ethic himself. hurricane Deans performance is intensifying and looks to be ready to break Category V wind speeds. It looks like the noaa and the national hurricane Center owe hurricane Dean a few extra credits.

hurricane Dean is already a Killer and has taken lives in jamaica man. Its path is projected to wreak havoc on the grand Cayman islands, Yucatan Peninsula and then head towards the gulf coast somewhere near the border town of Brownsville, TX. This is the first Major tropical Storm of hurricane level during the 2007 atlantic hurricane Season. Officials in all potential regions of the storms projected path are watching closely and many have advised evacuations.

news reports state: "Officials urged residents there and in the tiny cayman islands to begin preparing. Tourists were advised to return home, if they can. forecasters warned that the Category 4 monster with winds of 145 mph could grow even stronger -- possibly becoming a top-scale Category 5. By the time it hits or brushes Haiti, jamaica, eastern cuba and the Caymans this weekend, it could have 155-mph winds, bringing it close to Category 5 status.

Will hurricane Dean finish with a bang or will hurricane Dean follow the path of Presidential Hopeful Howard Dean during the last election - It's is anyone's guess. hurricane Dean will not be the only hurricane this season, just the first one and we know from the 2005 hurricane Season that hurricanes the get into the gulf of mexico and come up from under cuba, tend to be some of the most deadly.
