I've been thinking about going through the process of getting an FFL and opening a gun store/range.
With only around 10% of women owning guns I would like to attract women to my store and was wondering what I could do to make the store appealing to women.
Most gun stores I've been in would not qualify as "appealing" to women, heck some were not appealing to anyone. These stores are full of macho posturing, gun shop commandoing, know-it-allitis, ect. These kinds of things just drive non-gunners away, both male and female.
So what to do to keep a friendly, accessible but defensible space?
I figure that well trained and friendly female sales staff would be helpful as would keeping the place clean and well lit.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Warren
