The Winter Challenge


Make sure you and your PADI Dive Center have a busy winter with lots of diving courses and activities to keep your divers active and happy.
Background:
One of the most successful ways to keep in contact with your old students and customers is to meet them personally, face to face. The next best way is “old fashion” talk to them.
We have several very good examples on the results of “calling” old students and customers, does it work? Definitely, since this is not cold calling (such as telephone sales from different companies) you and your Dive Center already got a positive relationship with the student/customer it is one of the absolute most successful way to “know what your customers want and to get them diving”.

The goal is to book 1 student / day (at least).

How?
1. Get a contact list from your PADI Dive Center Manager with name, phone number and e-mail from students and customers. (In Denmark, make sure your Dive Center got the student/customers approval to contact them)
2. Make sure you got a schedule of courses and activities.
3. Grab a pen and a paper.
4. Start calling from the top of the list.
5. Tell the result on the PADI Nordic Tribe Facebook site.
