WHY FOLLOW-UP MATTERS IN DIVING ONE DIVE FAMILY PLAYBOOK: EPISODE 4
Follow-Up! One of the most overlooked tools in the dive industry. Too often, students complete a course and never hear from their instructor or dive center again. Not because people do not care, but because communication becomes automated, impersonal, or forgotten entirely. But real conversations still matter. When you pick up the phone, check in with your students, and stay connected to your community, you are not just growing a business. You are helping grow diving itself.
SDI, TDI and PFI were named the top training agencies by the Business of Diving Institute and the graphics are now available in the marketing resource center for your use. Nearly 900 divers, dive professionals and dive center owners were asked how likely they would be to recommend different training agencies to friends and family and the One Dive Family brands came out on top in their respective categories.
The all-new Gas Blender Suite is here and is structured around three separate certifications: Nitrox Gas Blender, Advanced Gas Blender, and O2 Service Technician. The eLearning is delivered as a single, unified program that incorporates the full theoretical content of all three courses. This approach eliminates redundancy and allows for a more efficient, progressive learning experience. Marketing materials for both email and social media are available for your use!!
