Looking to start a drum shop


Hi everyone,

I'm looking into starting a drum shop and I was wondering if there are any other drum shop owners out there. I am looking for information regarding the market (size, demand, trends, growth potential etc.) so I can complete a marketing plan.

Thanks.

Re: Looking to start a drum shop


Send a PM to Cymbals&Snares. He owns a drum shop under the same name as his username, I believe you can google it and find his website.

His shop is a distributor for a cymbal line, he is starting a house cymbal line, and he supports a lot of relatively unknown brands. I'm sure you could get a good idea of what you're up to by asking him.

Good luck, the more drum stores, the better!

I'll give them a call and see what's going on with this site attack.

I see his other site is still on going.

http://www.notsomoderndrummer.com/

Any ways, it's not only a drum shop, they also do repairs, and neighborhood concerts. There's something always going on there.
