<p><span>Does anyone have any experience with, opinions on, or recommendations for different tennis facility management software packages? </span><br/><br/><span>I'm looking into software to handle lesson scheduling/billing for our club, and perhaps eventually growing into other areas. If we go this way, we'd probably want to start simply - the easiest first step for us would be to handle lesson signups, scheduling, and invoicing for our 3 pros, and import those invoices into quickbooks. Being able to expand to more features later (e.g. court scheduling, online payment, point of sale, membership management, league management, etc.) and such would be nice, but isn't a high priority. Obviously price is something we're sensitive to.</span><br/><br/><span>Looking around, there appear to be </span><i>lots</i><span> of packages that claim to do this sort of thing. However, it's not clear that they do what we're looking for, many of them are obtuse on pricing and want you to schedule a sales call, and other things. Any thoughts or suggestions on ones to look at or </span><i>not</i><span> to look at would be great.</span></p> Infinite Tennis Radio Show "Player Development, or Selling Them Short?" take a listen...tag:tennisopolis.com,2013-07-25:1869403:Topic:10664322013-07-25T01:47:51.953ZCoachV - William Vazquezhttp://tennisopolis.com/profile/CoachV

<p>I know that not all the pros here teach at a tennis club or country club, but if you can give me feedback on this, I'd appreciate it.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Does the pro or the club set the lesson fees. I imagine that it just depends on the contract and that it varies. </p>

<p>Hi guys,</p>
<p>Hopefully someone here can share some knowledge with me about standard Head Pro compensation. My tennis club is about to embark on a Head Pro search. We've been lucky to have a great Pro for 30 years which I understand is unheard of in the industry. This year he is retiring and we would like to review and refine the contract and make sure that it matches the current industry standards.</p>

<p>Hi guys,</p>
<p>Hopefully someone here can share some knowledge with me about standard Head Pro compensation. My tennis club is about to embark on a Head Pro search. We've been lucky to have a great Pro for 30 years which I understand is unheard of in the industry. This year he is retiring and we would like to review and refine the contract and make sure that it matches the current industry standards.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I have a couple of questions right off the top:</p>
<p></p>
<p>1. Is the Head Pro usually hired as an independent contractor or an employee of the Club?</p>
<p>2. What percentage of the lesson and clinic fees go to the Club to cover maintenance costs?</p>
<p>3. Are these fees normally paid to the Pro and then a cut goes to the club or visa versa?</p>
<p>4. Is it standard to include a clause to ensure that the Head Pro is physically at the Club for a certain number of hours a day and days a week, etc.?</p>
<p>5. Is the Pro Shop sometimes the responsibility of the Head Pro?</p>
<p></p>
<p>Any other insights you can offer me?</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks in advance,</p>
