Tennis Business Ideas

[jspoken]

Hi all,

I am new here to the boards so this would be my first post!

I am currently self-employed in the entertainment industry. I basically can make my own hours and am looking to start a tennis business on the side. Tennis is one of my passions. I have played it since I was 6, taught at a few different facilities in different parts of the country for about 8 years and played college tennis competitvely. I am 28 years old.

I do not want to teach tennis in the blistering sun, start a stringing business or facility (not enough money for that).


Any advice here is much appreciated.

Thank you!!!

How about managing tennis players? I'm sure you can spot great talent after playing for so long. And it's pretty lucrative if you are good enough to graduate teenagers from the lower level ranks. You don't have to stand outside in the sun either lol.

I'm currently putting together a after market car parts business. I'm trying to contact part companies and compile all these parts, get them for whole sale, and distribute them online or face to face.

maybe you can be a distributer for wilson and so on.. for tennis gear.

but my best idea is after you get the contacts and become a license distributer...you can start at high schools and offer to be their supplier and offer student discounts..then colleges!! and it gets better.....online distributing has the ability to reach from coast to coast and world wide.

Why not put all your knowledge and expertise into an information product, ebook, videos, audio, etc and sell it online! or create a membership site.
Do some research and dig around and find out what people interested in tennis are looking for, what do they need help with? what challenges do they encounter? I know of many people who have done this exact same thing with their hobby or sport and are now making more money than they ever could in their 9-5.

If you don't know where to start or if you don't have the motivation to do it all, why not partner with an internet marketer to create the product and them get them to market for you at a percentage of the profits. There are many markets looking for experts to help them create products to sell.

just some food for thought.
