Charles Scholz of DiscountGolfWorld.com, was a panelist at the Regional Broadband Summit hosted last Saturday by U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) in Springfield, IL. Scholz outlined the importance of broadband connectivity to retail. A high percentage of in-store, retail sales are first researched online. Broadband users spend 33% more time online and can research information faster. Customers using broadband can quickly load rich media content such as larger product views, multiple angles, 360 degree views, video and much more.

Durbin hosted the summit to help raise awareness of broadband as a regional economic development tool and to discuss legislation to encourage the rapid deployment of high-quality, affordable broadband internet service, especially in rural areas.
