What makes a Pro Shop Great!!!

What makes a Pro Shop Great? 

 

Ken and I have been doing a little traveling in different States. We went into several Bowling Centers and Pro Shops. We went into 5 shops; this is what we did see. 

 

-We were never greeted when we walked into the shops 

-Totally blown away by how dirty the shops were 

-The merchandise was not priced or labeled correctly 

-The bowling balls, bags, shoes were last years inventory 

-3of 5 shops opened 25minutes to 45minutes late (after posted work hrs) 

 

The bottom line is several bowling pro shops are ran by bowlers not business people. I’m not saying there are not great people (pro shop owners/bowlers) in this industry but 50% of them (Pro shop owners/Bowlers) don’t care or don’t have a clue to what they are doing!! 

 

“I threw a double so I opened a pro shop� 

 

What makes a Pro Shop Great? 

The customers!!!

K&K would like to thank all of you for making us who we are..

Orleans Hotel and Casino - TAT (true amatuer tourny)making friends!!

Filed under: Bowling Tournaments, Bowling news — Phil @ 7:13 pm

Would like to congratulate the TAT and the Orleans Hotel and Casino (Mike Monyak) for a job well done!! The TAT owner Ed McWilliams and Harold Mountain and staff did a great job running this growing mega buck tournament!! From all reports the Orleans and the TAT tournament group were very happy with the turnout. As a free standing Pro Shop here in Las Vegas we get lots of over flow business from the tournaments. Along with that we get to here the normal bitching that scratch bowlers do. Well, K&K bowling are glad to report that we had not one bowler complain about the TAT or the Orleans!! I think that the relationship with Mike Monyak (Bowling Operations Mgr) and Ed McWilliams (TAT) will be a great one and it will only benefit us the bowler!!
