CUPERTINO, CA (July 16, 2008) – Never-Search, Inc. creators of the most comprehensive array of golf course information ever assembled has announced that its patented Never-Search for Golf™ travel and trip planning software has become a mandatory requirement for Club Glove’s entire sales force. This included equipping their inside sales support team with ten copies of the software.
“One of the most important tools in sales is having knowledge,” commented Jeff Herold, President, West Coast Trends, Inc. “Knowledge is power and Never-Search for Golf gives you the knowledge you need to close the deal. With this software, every piece of information about retail shops and golf courses is at your fingertips. You are even able to note the accounts as to when you last visited them.”
“Our Business Edition mapping system is designed for golf industry personnel needing to efficiently locate, qualify and contact golf facilities in new or unfamiliar areas,” said Keith Kreft, President, Never-Search, Inc. “Sales personnel enjoy the benefits of this invaluable sales lead tool immediately.”
Business information includes; phone numbers, fax numbers, website links, email addresses, mailing addresses, rounds played, golf professionals, managers, owners, superintendents, management companies, and other staff members. Businesses are accurately mapped to driveway entrances while the business data is linked to mapped locations. There’s no need to rely on inaccurate or undependable Internet mapping.
Other golf industry sales organizations have also found this to be an invaluable sales lead tool. According to Reid Gorman, President, MacGregor Golf, “This mapping software has more sales lead information on it than anything I’ve ever seen…”. “We love this [sales] tool! It has saved us a lot of time!” added Tina Hofer, Managing Director, Lela Designs, Inc.
“I find myself using Never-Search more than any other [sales] tool I have. I have even had the opportunity to call on places that I didn’t think existed,” commented Mike Franko, Sales Rep (Arizona area), MacGregor Golf.
Never-Search for Golf is a robust, PC-based, software mapping application that includes every street in the U.S. and Canada, and when connected to the Internet, it acts as a virtual website to plan trips, make reservations, and save locations and notes on places you’re planning to visit. You can then view your travel plans, routes and all other points of interest on your laptop while traveling unconnected from the Internet. Add a GPS receiver (G-mouse) and turn your laptop into a navigation system to follow your route with ease. All points of interest locations are mapped with unparalleled accuracy and are easily updated from the Never-Search website. Clicking on any flag on the map opens an information box displaying a profile of the location.
The Never-Search for Golf travel and trip planning software includes all golf courses in the nation with detailed information on each, along with driving ranges, golf stores and 9,000 golf instructors; all accurately mapped. The Business Edition additionally shows the locations of more than 21,000 PGA members working at either a golf course, a driving range or a golf store, while the golf course information includes the business contacts; the name of the Pro, the greens superintendent, the general manager, who owns the course, who manages the course… fax numbers, mailing addresses, email addresses, website links, rounds played, total number of holes, type of course, greens fee range… and more.
Users can download the product from the Never-Search website or order a DVD if they prefer that installation method. “95% of our customers have opted for the Internet download path,” said Kreft, “As you might imagine, an application containing over 6 million miles of roads is on the larger size, and some vehicle manufacturers actually require as many as 12 CD’s to update their in-vehicle navigation systems. Hence, we developed a unique, Internet downloading scheme, which runs in the background so you can continue to do other work on your personal computer while waiting for it to finish. The program is downloaded in segments, so if interrupted, captured segments are saved. The download can then be restarted at any time from a Never-Search desktop icon, resuming where it left off. It’s very clever, and it beats waiting 3 days for a mailed DVD to be delivered.”
Once a user has registered and downloaded the latest travel data, the software works with or without an Internet connection. The purchase price includes free updates of all the data for one year. The company offers a 30-day, money back guarantee. Both the personal and business editions are available from www.Never-Search.com. The Never-Search for Golf Personal Edition subscription price is $19.95. The Business Edition annual subscription price ranges from $99.00 – $495.00.
