Default RE: What would you change...

Deffinately broadhead shooting!
Being friendly and polite!

And if I could snap my fingers and change something about the proshop I use....I would change the owners attitude! Being opinionated is one thing , but being opinionated with customers is not a wise business move<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
I've seen the proshop I go to lose alot of customers by way of bad mouthing bows that he doesn't (cant) sell. If your strictly selling bows , maybe I could see where you'd do what you can to push your product. But if your gonna have a shooting range , your gonna have alot of customers who dont shoot your brand of bows , but are more than happy to spend money at the range or on accessories. Treat them all with the same respect.

Getting a top brand bow line can be tough to do if you have other proshops in your area. From what I've seen , the best way to go is start out with whatever bow lines you can get , but offer excellent service , endless amount of accessories , great shooting lanes and or 3d course. Try offering something that other proshops dont! When all is said and done and you've built a booming business , most bow reps will be knocking on your door.

Last but not least to me anyway , try and get to know all your customers on a first name basis. I get a warm fuzzy when I walk into a shop for the second time and the owner says hello Doug<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
