Business Idea:
Indoor Pickleball Courts: Convert industrial spaces into private indoor pickleball gyms, charging monthly memberships; minimal buildout costs with high margins.
Problem:
Limited accessible, private pickleball facilities cater only to larger franchises, missing small, high-margin niches.
Solution:
Rent or buy industrial space, convert into one or two courts, and market to local pickleball players for $149/month memberships.
Target Audience:
Local pickleball enthusiasts seeking privacy and convenience, especially in high-density areas.
Monetization:
Monthly memberships, minimal operating costs (~$2k/month), and high leverage with social media marketing.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP):
Low investment, high profit margin, and exclusivity—appeal to serious or privacy-preferring players.
Launch Strategy:
Use Facebook ads to test demand; find suitable spaces, build courts cheaply, launch with early memberships, and scale rapidly.
