Somewhat OT... Any golf junkies out there?

A bit off topic but still in the realm of sports...

I'm an engineer with a product I designed, manufactured and am now selling. I'm struggling a bit with it and I'm trying to generate some sales to make people aware of my product. If you're a golfer and you frequent grass driving ranges then you'll appreciate this. It's a club cleaning brush that you take with you to the range and insert into the ground in front of you. No need to step out of the stall to clean your club, no walking over to the water bucket... Keeps you focused on practice and gives you a pure/clean shot on every swing.

Check out Brush Caddy

Use the promotion code "PSA" for $5 off if you want to order one. Great fathers day gift!

Thanks all

If you put the cursor over the LINK, the Link has : WWW.GolfBushCaddy.com instead of www.GolfBRushCaddy.com

I fixed it. Thanks for the heads up and thanks for looking.

Robbie --

IMO -- your market is private clubs and otherwise nice courses that will put 20+ of these on their (natural grass) range for members to use -- maybe even add them to their tee boxes next to each tee marker (but less likely).

I don't see individuals having much interest.

Good luck.

When you do go to check out it says "Estimated shipping" and "Estimated total",,, just thought that was kinda odd you might want to look at it

After you put in your zip code it shows exact shipping, but also still states "Estimated Total".

Thanks for the comments Scott. Although I designed my product to be compact and easy to take to and from the range, it has been hard to get the individual users interested. I think my problem is not being able to get it in front of the user so they can see the quality and why it's worth the $25 bucks. It is actually, a really nice amenity to have when you're practicing and people don't know it till they use it.

I'm still plugging away regardless! thanks for the advice.

Like Doug mentioned, the shipping stays at estimate until a zip code is used. The total will also stay at estimate until the end of checkout.

Thanks for looking.

Few public ranges are natural grass -- they are most likely a synthetic surface -- your clubs don't get dirty and therefore don't need cleaned.

Again, just my thoughts.

Have to agree with Scott on this. You really should look to sell to golf courses or possibly the golf club manufacturers. You may want to look to venture capitalists for help. It looks like a good product, so selling on the wholesale level may be the way to go. If you watch the show Shark Tank it will give you some ideas.

The municipal courses usually have mats but otherwise, in my neck of the woods (So. Cal) they're all natural grass.

Just curious, what state are you in?

robbiegiggs

I watch Shark Tank every week!!! ha ha

Robbie ... I have to agree with the other posters ... I think your market should be golf manufacturers and golf courses (most all driving ranges here on Long Island are NOT grass). I can't see individuals purchasing this product. Believe me, for your sake, I hope I am wrong.

robbiegiggs

Oh, i'm not disagreeing with you guys... you're all right but I do feel there is a small market for the individual golfer to want one. I want to tap that market as well as the driving ranges.
