East Norriton Sport Fishin' Outlet prepares for Greater Philadelphia Outdoor ...
From Feb. 16 to 19, as part of the sporting extravaganza focused on fishing gear and tackle manufacturers, outfitters, boats and motors, camping and paddle sports, ATVs and RVs, Harry Neff expects fishing enthusiasts and profits to be biting like rainbow trout in Lake Winnipesaukee. Sales at my store in the middle of winter are very minimal, and this is an opportunity to do more sales in four days than I would probably do in four months, said Neff. Its a wonderful opportunity to promote the business. You see a line of people 25 deep with products to buy in their hands and its a good thing. I also get new customers every year as a result of that show. Youd be amazed how many people live really closeby and never even know youre here. Who lives around here who doesnt go up and down Germantown Pike at some time? Neff was counting on that kind of visibility when he moved his operation from a tiny strip mall in Blue Bell to a onetime typewrter repair shop remember typewriters? at 230 W. Germantown Pike, East Norriton, that he purchased eight years ago. When his realtor told him that, at that time, 70,000 cars a day whiz down Route 422, he was sold on the property. The availability of this wonderful building was a great opportunity for me, he said. Its a major difference between renting and owning. Nearly 30 years in business now with a new website, www.surelures.com Neffs seen the rise of the big box sporting goods stores hoping to encroach on the turf of the little guy and not always with resounding success. Were a dying breed a little tackle store, said Neff, whose fishing tackle business is pretty evenly split between the fresh water guys and salt water guys. In the suburbs of Norristown more than half of my business is salt water tackle. We sell a ton of tackle for salt water but you dont have to be next to an ocean for that.Outdoor Clothing Outlet - News
