As a qualified pro you can become club pro and depending on the sort of facility you become attached to may dictate the sort of things you do. For example the pros at my local ranges make all their money from teaching all day and rarely compete except for maybe two or three pro ams and are happy for the shop assistants to run the shop (green fees, selling equipment etc).

However as a club pro your work may be more varied. You will build up a firmer client base (club members) and can therefore decide how best to serve them. You will get to know those that want the latest gear, those that just buy a few balls a year and those who do and don't want lessons. You then have to decide how you will stock the shop and run the business. You will also need to become competent at club repairs (reshafting, new grips etc).

However as a club pro you may get the chance to play more as you can employ assistants to run the shop in your absence. This means you may even get the chance to compete in your local regional professional events. Order of merit winners normally get the chance to then pre-qualify (occasionally get sponsors invites) for some of the European tour events. You may even decide to try your hand at some of the mini tours.

Another option is to go abroad and try your hand playing on other countries pro-tours or perhaps get a teaching post somewhere although these opportunities are very few and far between
