I have been out to the Poway Polo Fields a few times. Nice facilities and you can stable across the street. The price to stable used to be like $300 with hay but that was a while ago. You can gain some more information at https://www.powaypoloclub.com/ Looks like they are having a few games over the 4th of July. If I was around I would have attended.

Our two favorite features of our mallets are 1.) Quality and 2.) Price
1.) Quality: We are very unique in the sense that we make our mallets from a slightly different construction. We used bamboo and hardwood. No one else can say hey have mallets like we do. The quality is high, its under a few pounds, and holds up to abuse.
2.) Price: Our goal is to offer mallets under $99 with free shipping in the continental U.S. (We are just starting the process of shipping overseas so if your interested in that please let us price it out
at escanabapolomalletcompany@gmail.com.)
There are four ways you can buy a mallet and that is 1.) directly through the site. 2.) Ebay 3.) Amazon and 4.) Facebook
Escanaba Polo Mallet Company is a good works start up that not only makes great mallets but also donates much of its profits to charity. We also teach others about start-ups and discuss some of the road blocks small business owners face when starting their own businesses. https://www.escanabapolomallet.com/
Gaining some reach through multiple market space locations is helpful. Recently I have made a push to sell more mallets and engage with the Polo community. It took some time to get the basic method and processes in place. Once you have something that is workable you will then need to sell it. That requires a level of exposure.
While I'm not new to Facebook I haven't put a lot of advertisements up there. Ebay and Amazon were common and now that Facebook is at a level it is.....one should not ignore it as a potential avenue to sell their products.
Compared to other marketspaces the process was relatively simple and painless. Whether or not it pans out as a potential site with significant sales remains to be seen. At some point I will try their promoted listing and see if that helps.
Perhaps there are other marketspaces that I'm not familiar with. If you know of another good marketspace send me an email at escanabapolomalletcompany@gmail.com
Right now we have direct buying, Ebay, Amazon, and now Facebook. A few others to develop are polo game flyers and directly to clubs. Here is our MALLET FACEBOOK LISTING
The world of business and polo is not so dissimilar. Escanaba Polo Mallet Company is a good works start up that not only seeks to create top of the line affordable mallets and encourage new polo players but also help teach about start-ups in America. Just like if you are starting your own polo team and/or start up company you will need to develop a cohesive team. The personality traits impact the quality of both and picking the right personality will make or break your plans (business or polo team).
If you are like most people in a position to hire/recruit others, you want to find hard charging people who seek to focus on the tasks at hand. What you don't want is them to be so self oriented that they create dysfunction and conflict. Any team will be quickly destroyed by toxic personalities.
Teamwork is a process of recruiting the right mix of people through their skills and personality to build a strong performing team. Agreeableness seems to be one of the traits you can look for in a potential candidate. We often look for the most bold but we need more game players than starts. The right mix can create an unbeatable team.
Let me give you an example.
Agreeableness was found to have significant impact on about 93% of other traits. It was a bridge between multiple traits and in many ways seemed to influence them as a general outlook. You can read about that that study in 'Agreeableness a helpful trait for general success in life, study finds'
Whether you are recruiting for your polo team or you are creating your next business team you will want to ensure that you look for people with a level of agreeableness. They are the ones who can work with others and share the ball and other opportunities in the spirit of group cohesion.
While such traits don't guarantee success they do foster the right team characteristics. Having both star performances mixed with the right team players can make a difference in overall outcomes as they are the supporters of the group.
Long term success is in the development of the right team with the right personalities. A single player may be able to hit the ball or create a new venture from time to time but it is the total team that can produce results over and over in a way that leads to long term success.
The next time you do some recruiting, whether polo or business, think about the softer side of people with a level of agreeableness as an untapped source of team formation.

They say pictures are worth a thousand words and I say that paintings are worth two thousand words. The depth of emotion and well mixed colors provide a level of meaning that photography has a hard time mastering. That is one reason why paintings are synonymous with human development.
If you are a polo player there are few things more motivational than players on horses tearing up the field!
Kamere Emosivbe brings his great love of polo to the canvas. Originals and prints are available of all of the works, as well as commissions to bring your own favorite moment to life! The artists work can be seen at www.kamere.art and can be reached by phone or Whatsapp at +13093070720.
When I look at these pictures I think of how they might work in a lounge, casino, hotel or polo club. They will spruce up just about any equestrian themed location.
