Publicity is valuable to the livelihood of a business. Yet, some business owners hesitate to market their company through a press release. Instead, they rely on 'word-of-mouth'. But if your market is in the virtual marketplace, word-of-mouth doesn't work as effectively.

* Prospective customers * Clients * Referrals * Recruiting key employees * Developing businesses partners, vendors, suppliers and the likeBusiness 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.

Instead of pulling out hairs over that business manual or press release you could outsource your project to a writing professional.What is outsourcing? Outsourcing or contracting is when you obtain a company or individual (outside of your organization) to complete a task or series of tasks. Why should you outsource your writing projects?1. You want great results - Writing great copy is a skill that everyone does not possess. Why give your business a mediocre image when you can have a high quality one? When you outsource your writing projects, you are handing your project to someone who is skilled. 2. You don't have time to learn how to write great copy- You have to check your email, go to meetings, plan the budget, meet with clients, shop for supplies; do you really have time to write content? When you outsource your writing project, you simply make a phone call (or send an email) and you no longer have to worry about completing the task. 3. You don't have the resources to hire an employee- Hiring employees can get expensive. Not only do you have to have office space, a computer, and other...more
