Starting an Archery Shop
People brought up that I should open up a shop in my area because of the run of luck that I have had with other shops around the area. When I went to work this morning I talked to a good friend there and he had been talking to his dad about doing the same thing.
We both have plenty to learn still, and are just kicking around the idea. But we both had a LOT of the same ideas and would love to pursue something like this.
My question I guess is, what are some goals we should meet before hand? I plan on getting all the equipment to service bows and do it myself for a while, and probably a couple friends that I hunt with to get a hang of that part of it. Also, does anybody know if there are any online classes, or would it be a good thing to look into a night class somewhere for some type of business management class? What requirements should the two of us meet before we go for it
We both agreed that it would probably take a while, and may be a little rough starting out. But what the hell. You only live once right? And this is something that we both are very passionate about.
Sorry for the long, somewhat rambling post. But I am just looking at what you guys would look for in a shop. And maybe what some of you yourself did before you opened your own shop.
