I have recently opened a Poker supply store in Chicago. I'm selling (Copag Plastic cards / Poker Chip Sets / Poker Accessories) Basically anything you would need to host a poker game. The reason for starting the business is because poker supplies are heavy and shipping gets very expensive when you order online. There aren't many places in Chicago selling poker supplies. I'm selling professional 14 gram clay chips.

I have created a website: http://www.ChicagoPokerStore.com to show the products I carry.

I wanted to get some thought on if this is a good idea and also how can I market to people locally.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

It's a great idea. Although the home poker market peaked in 2005-2006, we are still going strong.



I have frequently seen people ask the question here on Yahoo Answers, "Where can I go buy poker supplies in the [insert city here] area, TODAY!?" When they have a game planned, they don't want to go to the internet.



Another great idea: Targeted advertising. You need to get your name out there right? Find sites that cater to the home poker consumer, and then ensure that they do GEO TARGETING. That way you dont waste youre valuable marketing dollars on website visitors that live in Bangladesh.
