One-time deliverable

The Net Gains IQ Competitive Intelligence Report

A verified competitor audit and local trade-area study tailored specifically for pickleball operators and investors.

Who it is for

Built to de-risk key business milestones

Every report is scoped to the decision in front of you, and bounded by what public data can honestly support. Here is who orders one, and where we draw the line.

Built for
Club owners and operators: Thinking about modifying membership structures or adjusting peak hourly court rates.
Facility developers: Choosing the optimal coordinates for a new site or finalizing a business plan before local municipal zoning.
Investors: Evaluating investment risks of funding a club franchise or acquiring an existing racquet sports club.
What is not included
Private member directories or list files.
Internal court booking schedules or customer details.
Competitor financial statements or revenue metrics.
Proprietary peak court utilization percentages.

Instead, we rely on verified open data, manual cross-checks, and field intelligence to deliver highly reliable indicators.

Programming gap: the Sunday social void

While three major clubs in the North Trade Area offer competitive corporate ladders on Tuesday nights, there are no social ladder programs or beginner open play sessions offered on Sunday afternoons across any of them. This gap in the weekly programming grid is uncontested.
