Hi,
I have a 12 yr old son whose expressed interest in learning how to string racquets. I've had a cheap Klippermate drop weight that has served me well for close to 30 years. These days, I just string my own and my boys racquets, but back in college and post college I used to occasionally string for friends and acquaintances. I'm wondering what it would take to start up a small business, assuming he runs with it and has the interest or maybe he and I could run it together for a while. What is the process of getting certified? Is there an age restriction to certification? Business cards? Business License? Other?
I'd also consider investing in a new machine and would appreciate any suggestions. Would prefer to not spend over $1500, and would probably be looking at a crank or low end electronic machine. It seems like a lot of folks like the Prince NEOS 1000. Thoughts?
Thanks.
