Hello all,
I'm in the process of purchasing a retail gun shop with shooting range. The business is well established and has been at the same location since inception. The foundation of the business is solid. My first order of business will be to freshen up the sales floor and interior of the building. Inventory needs a lot of work, as I feel the current products are not geared to the interests of the shooters of today. With that said, if you were in this similar situation, what would be the first things you would focus on? Inventory (tactical gear, gun selection, handguns, rifles, ammo, etc.), instructional classes, and anything else you can think of? In other words, what are the key areas that make this type of business most successful? Thank you in advance for any comments and I look forward to reading the replies.
