Business on the Course

photo credit: billypoonphotos   Donald Trump, one of America’s best known entrepreneurs once stated, “if you want to get to know a person, play a game of golf with them.”  Golf is a great place to conduct business. 

More business deals have been consummated while playing golf than any other sport.  The game can reveal more about an individual than hours of conversation.  A player’s reactions during the game will reveal a lot about their personality.  For the observant business-person, like a Donald Trump, getting to know the person can give a decided edge in a business transaction.

The next time you want to conduct some business, do it on a golf course.  Tip:  If you are a salesman trying to make a sale, make sure your opponent wins !!
