Operating Review

What Teebox actually runs on.

Before we build anything, we map the machine you have today — every place a name, a dollar, a vote or a promise moves — and find the parts that are still moving because you personally move them.

How to use this

Mostly you tap a chip. The line under each one is optional — use it where the chip does not quite tell the truth. Where a question wants writing, fragments beat paragraphs, and a guess marked as a guess beats a blank.

Nothing is required except your email at the end. It saves as you go, so you can stop anywhere and come back to this same link.

If you only have ten minutes: do Section 01, Section 05 and Section 11. Most of it is tapping a chip — the write-in line under each one is always optional.

01

What we already think we see

We went through the public side of Teebox before writing this — the pages, the forms, what the site loads, how the ballot is built, how checkout works. Below is what we believe is true. Some of it will be wrong. Correcting us is the fastest thirty minutes you will spend, because everything downstream is built on this being right.

#What we observed & what we think it meansRight / off?
01
Everything lives on Wix

Site, store, events, memberships, sponsor checkout, forms and automations all sit inside one Wix account. There is no separate CRM, no separate email platform, no separate database.

02
Nothing is measured

We found no Google Analytics, no Tag Manager, no Meta pixel, no LinkedIn tag — only Wix's own built-in stats. So there is currently no way to know which page, post or campaign produced a voter or a sponsor. This matters twice, because AmplifiedExposure™ sells PPC and analytics to clients.

03
The ballot is a single form with 550 hand-typed businesses

Each state page is one form holding 11 dropdowns, each with roughly 50 business names entered by hand — about 550 per state. Adding a state means retyping 550 names. Those same names are also your entire sponsor prospect list, but they only exist inside a form field.

04
Ballot integrity is on the honor system

“One ballot per person” is enforced by a checkbox the voter ticks themselves. We saw no email confirmation, no duplicate check, no device or IP limit. You are selling $1,500 sponsorships against the credibility of these rankings, so this is a business risk before it is a technical one.

05
The 50/40/10 ranking is computed by hand

Votes land as form submissions. Nothing on the site suggests the 50% vote / 40% public reviews / 10% review-team score is calculated automatically, which means someone exports, tallies and scores 11 categories per state manually — and that someone is you.

06
Meetings run on free Google appointment pages

Every “schedule” button points at calendar.app.google, with at least five separate meeting types. That books time, but it does not create a record, tag a source, sequence a follow-up, or tell you later which meeting type actually produced sponsors.

07
Inbound texts have nowhere to land

Your LinkedIn banner says “text HOW to 727-776-4737,” and the site also lists 833-4TEEBOX. Two numbers, and no visible system capturing, routing or replying to inbound texts — which means the reply depends on you having your phone.

08
Sponsors buy through Wix Pricing Plans

$1,500 and $3,000, both “valid for 12 months,” self-serve checkout. We saw no contract step, no onboarding sequence, no renewal date tracking, and no way to tell a paid-in-full sponsor from one who lapsed.

09
The store is running on unedited supplier text

Product pages still carry print-on-demand boilerplate, including a literal “123 Main Street, Anytown, Country” placeholder and a third-party EU contact. Prices are raw supplier numbers ($16.27). It reads like a side door nobody has closed.

10
Content is being generated faster than it is being finished

The sweepstakes rules page is rendering raw formatting marks on screen. The Connecticut voting page's search title reads “Vote Orlando's Best.” Blog posts are bylined “Teebox Media Writer” and “Teebox Holdings Group, LLC.” Volume is there; the last mile is not.

11
You are the only person in the machine

One Wix account, one calendar, one phone, one byline. Every promise in the sponsor deck — video shoot, interview, blog, social campaign, 50 introductions, awards event — appears to route through you personally.

The thing we cannot see from outside is usually the thing that is actually eating your week.

02

The shape of the business

Numbers first, so everything we recommend later can be checked against what a change is actually worth. Rough is fine — where you are guessing, say so.

The basics, as of today.

A guess with "approx" next to it is more useful than a blank.

Not the page copy — what they get, in the order they get it.

What is the real constraint right now?

You have run a golf-and-business network before. The thing you deliberately changed the second time is usually the most important design decision in the company.

03

How you sell

Walk us through the money motion exactly as it happens today — not how it is supposed to happen.

Rank the real sources, biggest first.

Every touch, in order, with who does it and roughly how long it takes. Include the boring ones — the follow-up text, the second call, the "let me send you something".

Where do you keep track of who you are talking to?
The pipeline, by the numbers.
What is the most common reason someone does not buy?
Does someone who says "not right now" get followed up?

Be honest if the answer is nothing. It usually is, and it is usually the cheapest thing to fix.

Does anyone actually check out on the website by themselves?
Is there a contract or agreement before money changes hands?
In the 48 hours after someone pays, how much of it is automatic?
A sponsorship is good for twelve months. How will you know when one is up?
04

Your audience and your list

For most businesses the list is the asset. We want to know how it gets built and what state it is actually in.

What actually brings the most golfers to the ballot?

The one that works, not the one you spend the most time on.

Do you know your cost to get one voter?
The golfer list, by the numbers.

Follow it all the way to the end, including the part where you personally do something.

Can you tell a golfer, a business owner and a sponsor apart in your data?

Buyers vs. browsers, customers vs. prospects, one type of contact vs. another.

What is the honest state of the list?

Duplicates, bounces, sweepstakes entries mixed in with voters, golfers mixed in with business owners.

If a good month happens, can you find out why?
05

Producing the rankings

This is the product — everything else is packaging. We want to understand exactly how a Top 10 list gets made.

Where the votes come from, where the review scores come from, who does the evaluation, what you do the maths in, and how long one category takes.

What one state costs you.
Where does the ratings-and-reviews portion of the score come from?
Who is on the Teebox Review Team?

Asked plainly, because a sponsor or a reporter will eventually ask it plainly.

What stops someone from voting for themselves fifty times?

Every awards program deals with this. No wrong answer — we just need to know where the line is today.

If a business that lost asked you to show your work, could you?
What happens if a paying sponsor does not make the Top 10 in their own market?

It will happen eventually.

Every step from "we are going into Georgia" to a live ballot — including the parts that are pure data entry.

06

Delivering what you sold

This is where growth usually turns into a problem instead of a win. We want to know who does each piece and how long it takes.

The video shoot, the interview, the blog piece, the social campaign, the introductions, the winner announcement, the awards event. Who does each, and how long each takes.

How do you track that a customer got everything they paid for?
How much of the delivery do you do yourself?

Videographer, editor, writer, web help, a VA — roles and what they touch, not names.

At how many sponsors does this break?

Your honest guess at the number where you physically cannot deliver the package anymore.

Who actually delivers AmplifiedExposure™?

The premium tier covers SEO, PPC, web development, CRM integration and reporting. There is no wrong answer, but it changes the shape of everything we would build.

Would a customer notice the difference between your good week and your bad one?
07

Events and the awards

The awards event is the payoff you are selling on every page, and the biggest single operational lift in the calendar.

The next twelve months of events.

Specifically: you have promised invitations to voters and free tickets to a subscriber drawing. How do those become one guest list?

The last event you ran — how did it go?
Where do the Pebble Beach sweepstakes entries land?

Entries run through December. If it works it is a meaningful list, and the prize terms shift depending on volume.

Do you know whether an event paid for itself?
08

Everything you are paying for

List every tool, subscription and service in the business, including the ones you forgot you are being billed for. This is usually where the first month of a fee pays for itself.

The stack.

Tool name and monthly cost where you know it. Include anything you signed up for and forgot about.

Do any of these tools talk to each other?
Anything you pay for and do not use?
Does anyone besides you have hands on any of this?

Useful for security as much as for planning.

Teebox Media, Teebox Holdings Group and ConnectFORE all appear in your materials. Knowing which one owns the site, the money and the contracts matters before we connect anything to anything.

If your laptop died tonight, is there anything you could not recover?
09

Where your week actually goes

Your hours are the real budget. Rough numbers are fine — we are looking for the shape, not precision.

Hours in a typical week, by activity.

The one you put off until Sunday night.

Work only you can do badly, that something or someone else should be doing well.

Could the business run for a week without you?
10

What it should look like

Now the other direction. Describe the machine you want, without worrying about how it gets built.

Pick whichever matters most and describe how it would go if it worked perfectly with you barely touching it.

What should happen automatically that does not today?

Tap as many as apply.

Does state six cost you the same setup as state one?

You have said "expand to five states." This is the question that decides whether that is a plan or a treadmill.

Is the long-term plan to run this, license it, or sell it?
How do you feel about AI doing parts of this?

Some of what you do by hand could be handled by software. Some of it should not be — the introductions are the product, and a person has to make those. Where is your line?

11

Working together

Last section. Straight questions about scope, money and how we would actually do this.

What budget range do you have in mind?

"I do not know yet" is a real answer and costs you nothing.

How do you want to work?
When would you want to start?

Tell us what a bad outcome looks like and we will design around it.

Send it over

We will email you a copy of everything you wrote, plus a link that reopens this form if you think of something later.

Revvit — we put your best people back on their best work.
