Hey everyone,
Just checking to see if anyone has any comments or ideas regarding opening a 2nd retail pool store.
We are similar to a Leslies, except we are cheaper and stock way more parts.
Unfortunately, competition has moved in the area (epoolsupply and pinch a penny) and there are not many options to raise prices, when they are selling at close to cost on some items.
My thoughts were adding a second store farther away from the competition and was looking for advice from others that might have experience in owning more than 1 pool retail store.
Thanks in advance and let me know your thoughts.
Randy
