Brothers have a swing in a side business
Ken and Kevin Warner had played enough indoor golf simulators to wonder if they could ever earn a living running them. The solution ended up being no. Luckily on their behalf,[url=http://woolrichparkaschweiz.albirank.net/][b]http://woolrichparkaschweiz.albirank.net/[/b][/url], their other business provided a good enough back-up to try it anyway.
The brothers run Hastings' Xtreme Wire LLC,[url=http://monclerjackenoutletonlineshop.albirank.net/][b]Moncler Jacke Günstig Moncler Jacken Outlet Online Shop Kaufen 88%Off[/b][/url], an audio/video retailer that's were able to turn revenues close to $600,[url=http://2013rogerviviershoessaks.blogspot.com/][b]Roger Vivier Boots Outlet[/b][/url],000 a year and gain them some recognition; among their cameras captured the video from the I-35W bridge collapse which was replayed on television stations all over the world.
It's also allowed them to start Digital Links Indoor Golf Simulator, a side business that probably won't ever become their main source of revenue. But because of a shrewd business strategy,[url=http://authenticrogerviviershoes.halod.com/][b]roger vivier shoes for sale[/b][/url], it stands an opportunity to be considered a profitable hobby.
"If this was your living, it'd be tough,[url=http://authenticrogerviviershoes.halod.com/][b]http://authenticrogerviviershoes.halod.com/[/b][/url]," said Kevin Warner,[url=http://duveticapiuminiitalia.webmium.com/][b]Duvetica Piumini Italia Outlet Shop Duvetica Down Jackets Uomo[/b][/url], who is 32 and 3 years younger than Ken. "You'd have to be the only real worker and be here seven days per week. But it has been fine."
Indoor golf simulators have been around greater than a decade, allowing average hackers to play a few of the world's most famous courses by hitting a golf ball in a screen that transfers the shot right into a computerized version from the course.
They've dotted the Twin Cities, fading out and in with the seasons and with perceptions that they are a cheap facsimile from the real thing.
Understanding that,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada outlet shop[/b][/url], the Warners tried something different in the fall of 2006: They spent $160,[url=http://parajumperssalefreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]http://parajumperssalefreeshipping.webmium.com/[/b][/url],000 on high-definition equipment, converted a $500-a-month office into a home for their two businesses, and marketed the simulators as both casual entertainment along with a bona-fide golf experience.
The cheap rent and an online reservation system allowed them to staff the simulators with only one individual. They were given a food and liquor license and installed flat-screen TVs and satellite radio at their two simulators to create the right atmosphere for parties and first-timers.
A weekly league drew 40 participants this past year,[url=http://peutereyoutletitalia.albirank.net/][b]Peuterey Outlet Italia Compra Giubbotti Peuterey Online[/b][/url], as did a March Madness tournament designed to draw all the people skipping work for the very first day of the NCAA men's basketball tournament.
But they also installed surfaces to simulate shots in the fairway,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/[/b][/url], rough and sand, creating an event close enough that certain golfer who had played Mauna Lani Resort in Hawaii said he hit the same shots -- and made exactly the same mistakes -- about the simulator as with actual life.
It added up to around $45,000 of revenue from November to April this past year,[url=http://duveticaoutletcanada.albirank.net/][b]Duvetica Outlet Canada duvetica Down Jackets Mens Sale 2014 Online[/b][/url], with just $1,[url=http://giuseppezanottimenssneakers.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti sneakers men 2013[/b][/url],000 a month in expenses.
It's also served as free advertising for Xtreme Wire, since the Warners installed all the video and audio equipment in the simulators. Ken Warner said the golf business brought four or five extra jobs -- and the other $50,000 of revenue -- to Xtreme Wire last year.
"Most people spend $200,[url=http://peutereyoutletitalia.albirank.net/][b]http://peutereyoutletitalia.albirank.net/[/b][/url],000 on the showroom,[url=http://duveticaoutletcanada.albirank.net/][b]http://duveticaoutletcanada.albirank.net/[/b][/url], and also the showroom doesn't make sure they are any money," Ken Warner said. "This sells both of our [businesses]."
The revenue from Digital Links hasn't come close to covering its capital costs yet,[url=http://woolrichjacketstore.blogspot.com/][b]http://woolrichjacketstore.blogspot.com/[/b][/url], and the Warners don't expect that to happen for a couple years. Nor do they expect to ditch their modest surroundings for any bigger, more expensive spot anytime soon.
