Many of us would like to combine socializing with friends while watching live broadcasts from a tennis court, football field or hockey rink. It is such a pleasant and unobtrusive pastime with a glass of beer that modern sports bars offer. If you yourself are fond of sports, then your own sports bar can bring you not only good profit, but also moral satisfaction. So what do you need to do to open your own sports bar?
Instructions
Step 1
Any serious business, in particular, opening your own sports bar, will require you to write a competent and detailed business plan. In the business plan, you will need to decide on the concept of the institution, with the initial capital that you are ready to spend on opening a sports bar, with other costs and an estimated payback period. Then you will need to decide on the location of your new establishment. It will be best if the institution is located in the center, so that residents of different parts of the city can visit it. Also, make sure that there is no similar establishment in the district yet to avoid annoying competition.
Step 2
The space for a sports bar should not be too cramped, because your income will depend on its capacity. A good sports bar should accommodate 70-80 people or more. Unlike restaurants and nightclubs, decorating a sports bar does not require huge investments from you. Visitors to the institution will appreciate the creative approach associated with sports. For example, you can hang photos of athletes, tickets for matches, sports scarves from around the world and other sports paraphernalia on the walls. All kinds of cups, balls, clubs, rackets and medals will look great in the interior.
Step 3
The next stage is the purchase of furniture. It is better to place the fans on comfortable sofas in front of the screen, as well as buy more tables and chairs. The centerpiece of your establishment will be a huge plasma screen or a wall-to-wall projector. It is also worth taking care of the speakers so that during especially hot broadcasts you can turn on the sound to its fullest.
Step 4
When opening a sports bar, it is also important to take care of the menu that will be offered to visitors. It is very important that the menu contains several types of beer from inexpensive to elite varieties. As for food, all kinds of snacks, cuts and snacks should occupy an important place in the sports bar menu. Do not forget about the female half of the clients, including colorful cocktails and various desserts in the menu.
Step 5
And, of course, the success of your new establishment will largely depend on its name. It is best if this name matches the sports theme, in addition, it should be easy to remember. Advertise your sports bar in local newspapers and TV channels, run a special promotion to attract customers. If you try hard on your sports bar, then it will pay off in the next year or two.
