Turning Competitors Into Collaborators
As part of your due diligence on opening a golf associations business, be sure to learn as much as you can from somebody who is already in the business. Local competitors are not going to give you the time of day, mind you. What's in it for them?
However, an entrepreneur who owns a golf associations business on the other side of the country may be willing to share their entrepreneurial wisdom with you, once they realize that you are not going to directly compete with them in their community. In fact, they are often very willing to share startup advice with you. In my experience, you may have to call ten business owners in order to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
How would you find an owner of a golf associations business who is willing to advise you because you live in different cities?
Easy. Find them using our link below and start calling until you are successful.
Don't Rule Out Franchising
Your chances for avoiding failure in business are higher if you decide to franchise instead of doing it all on your own.
