Manage episode 438181555 series 3314402
In this episode, I interview LJ Luciano, the owner and operator of ATX Beach, the largest beach volleyball facility in Austin, Texas. We discuss LJ's journey into volleyball, the growth of the Sand Wannabes Facebook group, and the challenges of starting a beach volleyball venue. LJ shares his experience in raising money through crowdfunding and emphasizes the importance of having a site before seeking investors. We also discuss the significance of building a comprehensive business plan and understanding the costs involved in running a facility. I highlight the importance of alcohol sales in a bar with a volleyball setup and the challenges of running a restaurant alongside a volleyball venue. We talk about the need for a solid business plan, understanding the competitive landscape, and adapting to different revenue streams. We also touch on income streams in the beach volleyball industry, including leagues, tournaments, private events, and merchandise sales. 🌟
