The value of feasibility studies are a major focus of interest for prospective range owners and conference attendees.

Pensacola, FL (PRWEB) July 1, 2005 -- American Marksman Group (AM) was the sponsor of their second evening reception for the attendees of the NRA Range Development & Operations Conference in Sacramento from June 21-26. In addition to providing conference attendees with shooting industry statistics and benchmarks AM also focused on the value of economic and market feasibility studies for range development, a service offered by AM.

Often banks, other financial institutions, and investors require some type of third party feasibility study or assessment, in addition to their own due diligence, when evaluating a project. This will help them determine the likelihood of success, which in turn is equated to a level of risk. Mark Eberhard, CEO and President of American Marksman notes that, "Inherent to their backgrounds, most entrepreneurs, small business owners, to include first time range builders do not possess the business skills to include the appropriate market, economic, or financial information needed within their business plans.

American Marksman provides feasibility studies offering external and internal business variables as well as the analysis of the clients complete business plan, recommending a reasonable growth program, and profitability determination. Mr. Eberhard added As we have built industry awareness and credibility, we have been frequently asked to provide feasibility study proposals to prospective range owners and banks."
