Welcome to our forum.
Since I am possibly opening a new store- yet to be built what's some advice for design- what are some absolute things I should be considering that I might miss. I have all options available since the place doesn't exist yet. Info- 3500-4000 sq ft primarily hot tubs, chemicals and possibly billards and aboveground pools- very limited display cuz I think you can lose the " high class" image I want to kinda go for. I'm thinking people will think - this is like a "day spa"- smells good - looks good idea.
Check out Mendencino's store at http://www.indulgeyourselfspas.com/ The best advice I can possibly give you is to not start without a POS system, it's way to hard to set it up later. I know we are going through it now!
chas, I mean chaos.
I agree with Chas and Stuart on the POS system...........
They had an AWESOME wet test area, where they could close it off to give the customers more privacy...........
"OLD WAY" with a good reagent and tittration lab setup. Not only is this the most accurate, but also most companies out there today no longer use them so it will definilty set you apart from them. This should not be underestimated. Attention to details like this gain customers confidence and keep them coming back.
Chas? Where?
Hwo about a broad band internet connection so on slow days you can catch up with Chas.
