Guerrilla Planning
The first thing to know is that guerrillas plan backwards, beginning with the attainment of their loftiest goals in the future, then working back to the present. If you can allow yourself to visualize success, the path to it will be easier to find. Most companies see the beginning of the path in front of them, but don't see where it leads in the distance. Their short-sightedness gets them in trouble when change or unforeseen circumstances occur. It even impairs their ability to function when confronted with success.

Build Your Confidence-Make More Sales
There is a golf story that says: "The most difficult golf course is the one between your ears." The same can be said about making sales. There are more obstacles in your head than any prospective client will throw at you. Get over it!
If Life Gives You Lemons, Pay for Them When You Can
I made my selections and was in line checking out. When the total was rung up, I realized that I was several dollars short. Usually, I pretty much know what I have for funds in my pocket, but since I was only going to the golf course, I had only made sure I had enough to cover my fees. Buying produce had not been on my mind that morning; playing tournament golf was. Now, it looked like both images would be crushed.
Imagine a Bigger Market and You'll See a Bigger Market
Scientists in two studies at the University of Virginia discovered that softball players and golfers who had good days perceived balls and golf holes as larger than the players who had bad days. The question is, Did this difference in perception cause the player to have better days or did the day's performance cause the players to perceive the ball and holes as bigger?

What Everybody Needs to Know About Golf Promotional Products
Now you can take that box of golf promotional products out of the closet. Reach your hand way back into that old file cabinet in the corner, which nobody seems to use except for storage anymore, and grab yourself a handful of those golf balls and golf tees with your company’s logo on them. It’s time to start advertising your business once again. Promotional corporate gifts, products imprinted with corporate logos, or custom products with corporate logos, like imprinted items and corporate apparel are all making a comeback in the new economy.

Hit More Fairways and Close More Sales
Eric Dunn, my guest on this week's Meet the Sales Experts Radio Show, stressed the importance of positive self talk, affirmations, and transformation as keys to sales success. That Eric is a former golf teacher, his philosophy should not surprise anyone familiar with the mental aspect of golf. And during the interview it became clear that Eric knows a thing or two about my sport, baseball, too. Eric talked about the similarities between golf and selling and at one time he even sold golf equipment.
What is Your "Pre-Call" Routine?
Wrap your head around these six steps to a better result on the golf course and in the marketplace! The steps that you take mentally before you take the shot in sales or in golf will often play a considerable role in the result of that shot. What are you thinking? Many of you know that I am a bit of a golf nut. In fact, I am in the middle of writing a book on the 18 analogies between the profession of sales and playing golf. Recently, I read an article in GOLF magazine written by PGA Tour pro, Hunter Mahan in which he described how he “pressure-proofed” his game to make him more mentally fit for competition at the highest level. By turning to sports psychologist, Neale Smith, he developed a step-by-step “pre-shot routine” that I found to be very applicable to the preparation necessary before a sales call.

People Skills
So many times throughout my life I’ve heard the phrase ‘people skills’ used. What exactly are people skills? Hitting a golf ball for distance and accuracy is a skill. Quilting is a skill. After thinking about it long enough, I think that I would define people skills as having an approachable personality, the ability to listen, knowing how to talk to people, being able to resolve conflicts, and being able to admit mistakes and take responsibility.

Learn from Golf... Create More Revenue
When you get to the golf course, you can play golf. Eighteen holes or nine holes. Hire a cart, or not. There’s also a shop with golf clubs and accessories, clothes, and food and drink as well. All revenue streams for the club.
Hitting the Sweet Spot
Anyone who’s ever played golf knows about the ‘sweet spot’. It’s that favoured spot on the clubface – hit the sweet spot and it feels good, you’re in control of the ball and that birdie is yours for the taking. If you don’t hit that spot, it doesn’t feel right, you spend your time hacking in the rough and before you know it you’re in a bad patch.
Eye on the Ball
Like millions of people around the globe, I've been enjoying the World Series featuring my beloved St. Louis Cardinals, and at the same time, savoring a great football season. We all marvel at the talent and skill of professional athletes but, sometimes, it is baffling why the most highly-trained and talented people anywhere will fail to catch the most routine ball that comes to them. These are players who, in many cases, are paid millions of dollars a year for the sole purpose of catching a ball. And yet, on a significant number of occasions, they drop a ball that could have been caught by a Little League player.
