We've got some unique sports-themed twists
to new and traditional home based business!
here's a couple of HOT ideas:
Sports Bed and Breakfast
Bed and breakfast establishments are a
hot commodity. Providing travel weary
tourists with a friendly and serene place
to stay is very welcomed in today's rushed
world.
Bed and breakfasts typically offer more
personalized service, thus their
popularity. Many travelers swear by them,
and would not stay in what they consider a
"cookie-cutter" hotel room.
This idea would capitalize on the that
idea, from a sports perspective. If you
already own a bed and breakfast, or you
are considering one, this might be a very
good full or part time idea.
Transform your inn with a sports theme-
complete with sports-themed room
decorations and linens. If you live close
to a certain city with professional
sports, you can bet there will be fans
that travel to see the games.
You can organize cook outs, pep rallies
before the big game, a big screen TV to
watch other games, etc. Build a community
feel, it's what bed and breakfasts do
best!
Advertise on the Internet, to attract
fans from out of town, as well as locally
(for people to consider you next time).
Build and maintain a mailing list of
previous tenants (ask first!) to build
repeat stays.
Keep in mind that you could do this
idea just during, say, football season,
and then run the inn as usual the rest of
the year. If you're city has year-round
professional sports, you might consider
going full time!
Sports shuttle
Make sure your mode of transportation
seats plenty in a comfortable manner. You
can install a DVD player to play videos of
the hometown team, play fight songs on a
CD player, etc. Whatever it takes to whip
your crowd into a frenzy!
Ask your local sports venues for
guidelines regarding dropping off and
picking up passengers near the sports
facility.
You can offer round trip or one-way
tickets to your riders, although one-way
means you'll have to designate an end
point to avoid confusion. This may be best
done when you assemble a fleet of sports
shuttles. For now, stick with round trip!
Golf business ideas 101
Golf business ideas can be as unique as
everybody's game- and believe me, there's
no shortage of golfers out there! Making
golf so attractive to would-be entrepreneurs
is the millions that play the sport. Golf
is a participation sport, as well as a
pretty popular spectator item. This gives
you two angles to approach your target
market.
One golf business idea that getting
pretty popular is the content site that
offers golf equipment reviews. Shoppers
are pretty savvy these days- online, they
can price compare till they drop. But
they're also looking for opinions on
products they are considering, especially
unsolicited and unbiased opinions, in the
form of reviews from people just like
them.
This could be a great golf business
idea for you. Imagine setting up a site
that caters to these info seekers, and
getting content delivered from the
visitors themselves! Talk about a
self-healing website! Golfers are usually
more than happy to throw their two cents
in when it comes to the good, bad, and
ugly of golf stuff.
You'll want to provide incentive for
participation, however. Be prepared to
fill your site with something of value-
once your site really gets humming, the
reviews will be the main attraction. But
until then, be prepared short and long
term with quality content. You can write
about your own experiences with various
golf clubs, etc., and spin off material
such as golf travel, tips, and such to
give your site that "lived in"
look.
