The 2020 coronavirus pandemic has caused significant concerns for small business owners around the country. In the indoor baseball/softball training industry, this situation couldn’t have occurred at a worse time as our Northeast facilities were approaching the start of the season and the Southwest locations were winding down theirs. Part of the huge benefit of being a part of a franchise is the continued support and assistance you can receive, especially in times like these.

As an Extra Innings franchisee, here is some of the ongoing support we provide:

• Continued access to the "The Clubhouse," our company wide intranet training and communication site. Franchisees are able to tap into the knowledge and experience of the entire Extra Innings team, including all other franchisees and managers.
• Comprehensive e-mail marketing and social media platforms to promote your facility's programs and special events. You get access to our proven strategy developed and executed by advertising, internet and social media professionals.
• Custom responsive website developed, maintained and optimized by contracted web & digital marketing professionals.
• Access to a proprietary schedule manager software that will help streamline your business and enhance your facility's marketability through email and text reminders to your customers.
• Ongoing training on how to take advantage of the Extra Innings buying power that enables you access to the Extra Innings approved vendors and distributors. This access includes unprecedented pricing and distribution programs made available to each franchisee on the Extra Innings team. These companies provide nationally recognized products and equipment for you to sell in your Pro Shop or use in your facility.
• Assistance and analysis with ongoing administrative functions such as accounting, finance, inventory control, and insurance.
• Most important, we have dedicated full time staff that are always available to provide support with anything you need.
