Airsoft Online Retailer - Bringing Expensive goods in at unbeatable prices
Q1: May need to talk with some Japanese/Chinese wholesalers about importing upgrade parts for certain models (Need to develop some contacts for those parts) - such a move would setup this company to take off, as offering upgrade parts state-side would allow for an excellent customer base.
Idea Description
A site which deals Airsoft replicas in bulk so that the product would be affordable to buyers (and beginners). Raises awareness for Army & Police fields by providing information about this sport and how it relates.
Would contact local Police Departments about affordable Glock replicas for use in training scenarios.
Airsoft is a combat sport or milsim game (in some ways, similar to paintball). Read more about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airsoft
Note, these are not firearms, they are air-powered replicas often used in milsim and other training environments. They are also much safer than firearms for use in target practice.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
I would invest the money into setting up the servers with proper code, and would bring in the first line of products - at affordable prices.
Vote for it now.
@wazmol: Whoa, no. no. that's not what would draw people into the sport. Realism is what brought me into it. No, yellow bb's is not what real airsofters most commonly use. Here is an example of what powers the automatic electric airsoft guns: http://www.mechbox.com/site/mechbox/the-mechbox/how-the-mechbox-works.html
Its BB guns and ammo and what not, you know them really fun guns that you can fire the small hard plastic pellets, (most commonly the yellow ones). A link to an image: http://www.global-b2b-network.com/direct/dbimage/50307919/Airsoft_Gun_AS0001.jpg Also you can get more and more types now-a-days, such as shotguns and SMGs Ect.
Since Airsoft really can't be summed up really quickly, due to growth and general underground tendencies of the sport, It would be highly illogical to make an effort to sum up the definition of Airsoft in a sentence. I suggest Using a short description and linking to a page, such as Wikipedia, maybe even making a section on the history and definition of airsoft. I agree with Online_Learning, a consumer who does not understand what the product you are distributing is, will most likely not become a consumer of the goods you sell. Thank you Mr. DePalermo and Business Management Class!
Just a suggestion, in your description I would define what airsoft is, I read the idea but had to look it up to see exactly what it was. Good luck with it.
