Ocean In A Box is contemplating opening its doors as a "members only" facility on a local level to the Portland metro area. I am wondering what ideas you as a consumer would have that would make you feel that if you belong to the facility as a local member, what you would want to see in place that would make you feel as though you had an exclusive membership.
I wasn't going to open to the public, but customers keep showing up at my door out of the blue and I am basically turning away business because I told the LFS's if they supported me that I would not open to the public. But with that being said very few buy on a regular basis so to keep my agreement with them I figured I could be a COSTCO of corals so to speak and offer a private membership for a small annual fee. I have many ideas already, but would like to hear some of your feedback. Please keep your ideas "positive" and on topic. This thread is not for bashing the idea, but rather to help me make it a good one.
