Default If you could open a ATV shop,What would be diffrent about yours!!

Just wondering what you think would be intresting and diffrent in an ATV shop, what would you do to keep people coming back ..what would you offer in service,engine building,mechanics,etc..I want to open a shop some day but i want to be diffrent ,because when i walk into a cool shop im like a kid in the candy store..

If i use an idea of someones you will get 50 % off all parts...JK

I know some of you are young entrepreneuers and had bad service and said (I know what i would have done) to make them happy!!!

Mainly...i would be honest and wouldnt rip people off. I would stand by my products and work and if i was a local shop i would try my best to know every customer by name. i would be everybody's friend and have my hot wife behind the counter, with my dog sitting next to her or me. Now thats a shop!

That;s a good idea but i mean something that i have never seen ,like i would want to make a track in the back to try out all the bikes,or for the customers to be abel to test ride some of the quads,or be abelto try out the products before you buy them.

what about the name of your shop?

maybe have aPS2 hooked up and have atvfury wars..

Liability insurance will keep you from allowing people to test ride the quads. It's expensive.

Build a 2 mile track , then sponsor a bunch of races in your shops name , give your customers that buy a new quad from you a 1 year free unlimited track time (except race days ) and those who buy used they can get 6 months . All other riders that want to ride on your track charge a 20 dollar fee for the day and 35 for the weekend . You make money all the way around , your track brings you customers and recognition , your store brings you money and punk rights.

I like that idea,then set up a dyno,have a display of the hottest items of the month featured on the quad of the month.
P.S it's hard to be unique but i like some of the ideas,is it that hard to be unique,shoot i would be happy with honest service and good prices,along with all that and a few other treats your shop will rock..


Have test runs for all viewers to see the latest prod. and bike run the track in the back...

and have an actual machine that tells what jetting you should run and fuel mixture etc...
