Business Model for "Rental" Launch Monitor
Hello all, I am new to the forum, but from Google this is the BEST forum for launch monitors/sims/etc.
I'll be posting in the introduction section but wanted to get my question out first.
I've been thinking of trying to create a business model to rent a launch monitor. As just in the past month have utilized Trackman for a driver fitting for the first time. My thought was to utilize the unit on a "rental" basis at the local country club (only one in town) and at the only driving range in town. I think I would get full cooperation from both facilities. I guess my question is in relation to equipment. IF money wasn't an issue, I would buy the Trackman with all the bells and whistles, however, I would like to minimize my costs. Based on the limited knowledge of golfers in the "high tech" analyzers and such, my thought was to get either the FlightScope x2 or the ForeSight GC2 w/ HMT as they are around $10K less than the TrackMan.
As well, I believe the FlightScope has some "games" that could add the rental income. I don't believe ForeSight has anything like that.
Do the members here think a "rental" business plan would work? I think with golfer today looking for the best equipment for them, they would be interested in using it. However, would the "new" wear off?
