Dixon Golf

I have been with Dixon Golf for six years now. The Brand has made so much growth during the past 2-3 years that positions have begun to transition into F/T role instead of just P/T work. P/T is still available, but it is fantastic to see the growth and effect we provide to the local communities we support.

This job is fantastic for those who are entrepreneurial. If you are motivated by a set, weekly paycheck, this is not the company for you. However, if you are motivated by large commissions and getting to be paid for your contribution to our branding, this is the position for those types of individuals who think "big picture."

On a day-to-day basis, we get into our home-office at 8AM or 9AM and have kickoff calls to start our day. allocate roughly 4-5 hours on the phone going through the CRM system we have with thousands of leads and events that Dixon has found info on. We designate a few hours to conference calls throughout the week, and for returning voicemails and emails (as we get a surprisingly large number of callbacks, compared to most cold calling). We also tend to have face-to-face meetings with some events when it comes to selling our custom products, so a few hours a week are dedicated there. Overall, 20+ hours a week are logged on the phone and the other 20 hours for Managers are spent on emails, voicemails, meetings, and hiring/training reps. Tournament Consultants are able to work as little as 15 hours/week, if they prefer a part/time basis of 3 hours/day.

The hardest part of the position is spending your time on the phone. In a work from home setting, I see colleagues who struggle to dedicate work time. There isn't a "cube farm" where the supervisor walks around to ensure people are calling events. My advice for people is to genuinely consider your home office as your work place. If you had to report to a brick-and-mortar office, would you leave to go to laundry? Or to do household chores? No. If you have the mentality that you're at work, it allows you to focus on the work to be done, and set yourself up for large paychecks during the season.

I also work as a Rep, attending the events that are schedule for Dixon to support. It's the most fun position I've ever had, as you get to immerse yourself in the event, have fun with golfers, and it's a very easy promotion to run on-course.

I give Job Culture 4-stars due to the fact that we are remote. Many times, I only get to meet colleagues once or twice per year. There are conferences and group messages used for communication, but it's certainly different than an office setting.

I give Advancement 4-stars as is it not a large corporate structure. At the bottom, there are P/T Reps, who attends events. Next, there are Tournament Consultants and Territory Managers, who close events and sell custom products. The difference is that Territory Managers oversee the hiring of reps, and have an additional compensation structure for doing so. Lastly, there is Regional Manager, who oversees the hiring and training of TC's/TM's. TC's can have rapid advancement into the TM position, and top-performing TM's may have the opportunity to advance. Most of the "advancement" we do is the growth of our own paycheck. I don't care about my title - I care about my paycheck. So if I want to grow that, I just spend more time on the phones. I've given myself a $30k raise over the last three years.

I give Compensation and Benefits 4-stars as it's really two topics. The compensation structure is very lucrative. 5-stars for the structure. For benefits, there isn't a formal benefits package. We are all 1099, which is great for write-offs and such for taxes, but also means no health/vision/dental. Just the nature of 1099, so it's hard to complain about that.

Those who are career oriented like myself will love the Territory Manager or Tournament Consultant position. While the vast majority of income is seasonal, F/T individuals can enjoy very large weekly paychecks ($2,500-$4,200/week for myself last year), and have the ability to take significant time off during the holidays. We do work in January, Feb, and March, as those are the month most events begin planning. That's one of the most important times of the year actually, as events plan 3-6 months in advance of their outing. Those months are typically only 20-25 hours/week.

My advice is that those who excel with Dixon are those who, strangely, have an "insurance" mindset. What I mean by that is that events we support are clients year after year, as we have a VERY high return rate for our sponsorships, as well as the fact that tournaments order their custom products form us year after year. While there are not residuals or anything with Dixon, these events occur every year. I've had events I've sponsored for 7 years now! Each year, I earn my commissions and bookings and other payments, as well as earning the custom product commissions. Your first year is about building a territory, and year two always doubles, if not triples, earnings from year one. With the advancements Dixon's leadership has made in the last two years, it is very possible for individuals to push 6-figures during their second or third year with the company.

You just need to commit. You're not focusing on the instant return, but the return 1-3 months down the road. The time you put in on the phones is a direct correlation on the paychecks you receive.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Being able to work on a golf course. Being an independent contractor.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The managers take  all the good tournaments. If you work a good tournament don’t expect to work it the next year as the managers will work it. Managers take tournaments you are already assigned because the ones they were working cancelled. Last minute cancellations and asking to work tournaments the day before. The tournaments the managers don’t take you are lucky to make the minimum of $100. Most tournaments you are on the course for 5-6 hours plus being there an hour early and having to pack up and to get signatures after.  They tell you it’s 3-4 hours but that’s not true - if you’ve ever played a round of golf you know a round is 4+hours, let  alone a tournament with a mix of people who don’t golf often. It’s an 8 hour day after it’s all said and done and to make the $100 minimum is awful. Most of the tournaments are an hour and a half to two+ hours away. So add another 3 hours of driving and it’s a 10-11 hour day for $100 and no gas/mileage reimbursement . Don’t expect tournaments to be at the courses near you because they typically aren’t and if they do have them the managers take them since they are local too. The ownership is awful. William Carey just says request more tournaments and excel and the managers will reward you. Not the case. You request tournaments before they are open and the mangers tell you if you get an email you work them. However the managers worked them and said it was because they haven’t been working many lately. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
There isn’t much of a culture or work environment here. Usually you have an on course interview that the managers make the reps do so they don’t have to deal with them. So you will be taught by another rep not a manager. There isn’t much manager oversight - you have to enter inventory every week so your managers can send you more inventory when you are low. However you still have to let them know as they don’t order more inventory unless you tell them. Overall the culture the managers have created is not an ideal culture 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It’s nice being on the golf course and helping charities raise more money and have fun doing it.

So far, I really enjoy working for Dixon Golf.  I was burned out in my previous healthcare career and was looking for something where I could still help others, but have flexibility in my schedule and make some extra money.  The focus of the position is to build relationships with the charities to assist them in their golf tournaments.  Most of these contacts want our assistance as we can save them time and money with the resources the company offers.  Empathy is important when speaking with the clients as most of the events are a way to raise money for someone in need.  I feel a true sense of satisfaction in being able to help these charities raise money.

We are 1099 contractors and are compensated by commission for items that the company can provide, but the products we offer are something the contacts usually purchase for an event anyway (golf balls, hole-in-one policies, etc.).  There is a SurePay system recently put into place with a point system that is helpful to those just starting out that do not have a client base yet to depend on commission pay.   

Consistency is key.  Need to be disciplined especially in following up with clients.  A lot of support is offered during training and throughout.  Weekly conference calls are given by management to focus on certain aspects and provide encouragement and advice. Overall, I am impressed with the vision & purpose of this company and proud to be a part of it. 

I took this on initially as a part-time job that I intended to work close to full-time. I've had plenty of experience in golf, but that does not seem to matter as much as having sales experience. Upper management stresses that this is not a sales job and we are meant to help events raise money. However, because the job is commission based, if you don't make sales (get donations and sponsorship deals), you won't make money. One important thing to note is that this job is no-risk for Dixon, full-risk for you. If you work, they make money. If you don't, they don't lose anything because they're not really invested in you. 

You do not work for them as an employee. You are an independent contractor. This means no insurance, 401K, travel, meals, or other coverage by the company. Even the yearly mandatory training conference for managers is not covered.You have to travel for this job, so that makes it less appealing to work longer distance events. In my experience, I have been given promises of having gas covered for last-minute 2+hr commutes to events that never came through. Spending 6 hours per day working on a golf course is nice though. You also get discounts on Dixon Products while you're working for them. 

The job is seasonal. There is no work for you between November and April. It's a good 2nd job to have, but do not expect it to replace your day job.

This might be the best job I've ever had. Certainly it's the most flexible, as I work from home and can choose my own hours. It's one of the most rewarding, as I get to help some exceptional causes, and work with some really amazing and passionate volunteers. 

The toughest part of the job is that you need to be a self-starter. Working from home can be challenging, and the ability to ignore distractions is key. You're going to be spending a lot of time on the phone, and that's not for everyone. 

On the other hand, you're going to be calling (and helping) some amazing people.

There are also a lot of advancement opportunities, and really good coaching available. There's always someone available to point you in the right direction. They succeed when you do.

One of the most rewarding parts, and the most challenging, is assembling a team of on-course reps. Getting dynamic personalities, who want to help others, while still being able to take "no" for an answer isn't as easy as it might seem. 

The Tournament Consultant position is a sales job. Tournament Consultants are independent contractors that work with Dixon Golf to help charity golf outings with their unique tournament needs. I really enjoy helping the people that plan and organize charity golf outings by offering them solutions to save time, increase funds, and make the outings more fun! I also align with the organization's sustainability mission and hope they continue to offer more high performance eco-friendly products. I like working with Dixon Golf because it offers flexibility and I am compensated based on performance.  Like any sales job, you have to put in the time, attend training, and work with a support team to be successful. You can also take on additional roles like Tournament Representative where you can work the on-site tournaments you help. 

This job is great, there are pros and cons to it but the pros outweigh the cons this far. For instance the work is remote, on the phone, building relationships. I love the conversations I have with people on a daily basis. My job is to help charities to make as much money as possible at their events, I take pride in that. I’m not selling anything, I’m not handcuffed with policies or procedures. 

Dixon empowers you to run your own business, I’m a 1099 contractor not a W-2 employee. So with that, my success rides on what I put into the position. Discipline and consistency are vital to success. The job isn’t really that difficult to learn. There are scripts to reference depending on how close to events you are.

Overall, I’ve not made much money yet. 2 months in, I’m still building relationships and calling a lot of charities every day. Golf season hasn’t picked up yet, but as of now I’m optimistic about the future with this company. 

I am a TM for Dixon Golf, starting out as a rep in 2013. Off the bat, I was making good money as a rep, averaging $40 an hour. When I was presented with the opportunity to take on a management role, I was very excited. The position takes dedication and time management, as a regional manager does not micromanage. The more effort you out into, the better your paychecks will be. When Dixon advertises in its ads for a TM, they are very realistic in their pay grade being roughly $20-30,000. For those who put in the effort, and by effort I mean roughly 20 hours per week plus working the booked events, you will be delighted with all the outings who absolutely love our involvement. The lines of communication with management are always open, and input on the operations is always appreciated by management. Bonuses are easily gathered based on goals for the golf season. Absolutely love it!

If you treat the Territory Manager position like a full-time job, you get paid like a full-time job. I spend my day reaching out to charity events, learning about a plethora of wonderful organizations in my area (many of which I hadn't heard of before), and know that my work benefits every charity event I reach out to and that Dixon sponsors. 

With it being a work-from-home position, it is easy for some people to get distracted and to not get the job done. The best type of fit for the position is for individuals who want to build their own company, yet not take any of the financial risk. If you are the type of person that wants a standard, weekly paycheck for the same amount, this is not the position for you. I can honestly say, my weekly paychecks are always higher than anticipated, and dedicated Managers can make over $10,000 in a month.

How often do you find a role where you get paid to be on beautiful golf courses across the country—and feel genuinely proud of the company you represent?

How often do you find a role where you get paid to be on beautiful golf courses across the country—and feel genuinely proud of the company you represent?
That’s what makes working with Dixon Golf so unique.

Beyond the experience, Dixon aligns with my core values. The company takes a different approach by minimizing traditional marketing spend and instead investing in what truly matters—supporting charities, giving back to communities, and prioritizing environmental responsibility.

It’s rare to find a brand that balances purpose and performance so well. I’m grateful to be part of something that not only creates great events, but also makes a meaningful impact.
