European Golf victory – showing us to believe you CAN!
Henry Ford said if you think you can do a thing or if you think you can’t do a thing, then you are right.
On Saturday night I tweeted ‘Come on Europe believe you CAN’ – and they did!
What a fantastic day for European golf when Martin Kaymer sank his 5 foot putt to retain the trophy for Europe. Wasn’t Ian Poulter amazing? But it was the whole team including the captain Jose Maria Olazabal that saw us through to victory.
The spirit and approach the European Ryder Cup team showed, can provide inspiration to all of us in life and in business. The team spirit – everyone playing their role, supporting each other was a pleasure to watch. The positive attitude the players adopted, knowing that if they did their bit and every other player in the team played also their part the unthinkable could happen. At one time, the team looked as though they could be going into Sunday’s final day 12-4 down, but somehow they managed to win the last two games on the Saturday to see the USA team lead 10-6. The team knew there was no room for error if they were to turn the 10-6 deficit into a win. They believed they could do it and they did!
Self belief is so important not just in sport, but also in business. If you believe you can offer a better level of customer service than your customers – you will. If you believe you can make a product better than your customers, with more added value – you will.
Believe you can make a difference for your customers and you will.
Summer 2012 has been a fantastic year for sport in the UK and I congratulate everyone who has had success. Now is the time in business for us to set our own goals and ensure we gain the success we desire in our lives. Good business processes recommend that in business we consider our marketing objectives and set a marketing plan to achieve these goals, monitor and keep the plan on track to ensure success.
If you feel the inspiration from elite, successful sportspeople has motivated you and would like to know more about how you can use the lessons from sport to help your business contact one of the Win Marketing team now.

Once again, thank you to all in the European Ryder Cup team for making this year so special – bring on Gleneagles in 2014.
