JULY THEBUSIGQLFDOMNESSJOURNALO FGOLFStocks, Display, Advertising,Are Tanis Success KeysByTHERB GKAFFISHERE are not many merchants, largeor small, in any phase of the sportsgoods business who do any smarter ormore thorough job of merchandising thanChuck Tanis does as pro of the OlympiaFields Country Club on the south side ofChicago district.Chuck's method of shopping, displayand advertising have resulted in development of a volume that compares favorably with that of many a sports goodsstore or department operated on a 12months basis.His percentage of the total golf buying done by his members probably isamong the highest enjoyed by any of thenation's pros. His shop volume is added toby many of Olympia's Fields' membersbringing their friends to buy at the Tanisshop. That's a clear indication of thehign prestige as a golf goods merchantTanis has built with his advertising, merchandise and service.Tanis is by no means a high pressuresalesman. He's a quiet, c o m p e t e n t ,thoughtful worker. There's no forcing inhis methods. The keynote of the Tanisoperations is helping the members to buyright.That, of course, means careful selectionof merchandise as the first step. Chuckmakes buying trips to see what's the besthe can get to sell. During recent yearsof merchandise shortage he's picked upmerchandise that not many pro shops orsports goods stores have been able tostock. One main reason for that is hispractice of ordering f a r in advance. Hats,caps and other apparel items, for instance, he orders in the fall f o r deliveryat various times the following summer.His cash and credit position qualify himas a first class customer f o r some ofAmerica's top manufacturers of sports ap-parel. He has brands usually carried onlyby the exclusive sports apparel stores.But don't let that make you think Tanisfails to make a sound price balance in hisstock so he can supply the needs of buyers who don't throw much money aroundwhen they come into a pro shop.An All-Star StaffAnother prime reason for Chuck's successful operation of the pro shop as aservice station for members is the staffhe has assembled and trained. He's gotfour men. That gives Tanis a quite heftyoverhead as he pays his assistant well.But, by their qualifications, training andwork they boost sales and customer satisfaction and make their salaries goodbusiness for Chuck. Irv Kleinedler whowas with Chuck for 3 years before hewent into the army now is back on thejob as teaching assistant. Ernie Davidson has been with Tanis for 5 years andis in the shop all the time. Bob Rossing,who was with Chuck 3 years before enlisting in the Marines is back in the repair and rack room. Richard Scott, whohas been 2 years with Tanis in the repair and rack room, is the youngest ofthe group.Tanis has developed an exceptionallyhigh class staff all of whom are keenlyambitious to make their department amodel of pro department operation. Theboys are on their toes looking for chancesto improve their work and discuss infrank, friendly manner where they thinkany of them have missed a bet. The workof the department is well organized. Theshop is dusted daily and the floors aremopped 2 or 3 times a week, or oftenerif traffic on muddy days so requires. Allof the fellows regard themselves as being engaged in an exacting and uniquebusiness and take pride in having established and maintaining their shop as a
