Mind Padel launches a new website called Esprit Padel Shop, which will sell equipment padel and tennis. We wanted to know more.

An innovative concept

Mind Padel Shop is a completely new idea which consists of working with clubs, and paying them when their members buy equipment, Sébastien Cornet explains:

“This concept was born from discussions with other club managers of padel and particularly Charles Alexandre of the Spoon Center in Nevers. We decided to make it happen because the synergy perfectly validated the ethical and commercial strategy that we wanted to put in place. Mind Padel Shop it is also the demonstration that the pooling of ideas between professionals in the sector is more than feasible ”

A slightly different adventure, shared with Joffrey, Esprit operations manager padel, as well as Charles and David, co-managers of the Spoon Center.

“The model of Spirit Padel Shop is a little different from that of other sites ; indeed we wish to address ourselves to all clubs, padel, of course but also of tennis, which do not have or a small proshop. When a player purchases equipment (rackets, balls, accessories, and shoes) on www.prit-padel-shop.com by telling us about his club, we then donate part of the sale to the club in question ! I think all club leaders will appreciate this additional income. Many players, aware of the current difficulties of their club, will be able to help their club to survive by having fun. It's a win-win!

This idea had been in the making for a while and the confinement period pushed us to realize it. As a newcomer to the web, we are very humble and we want to use our know-how acquired through our store at the club and the feedback of the players. ”

The know-how of a club padel

Un know-how which will result in:

  • Competitive prices on the best equipment for players, while respecting our partners who are the biggest brands of rackets.
  • A tailor-made delivery, until 18 p.m. the next day for the impatient!
  • After-sales service to change rackets if the player notices a manufacturing problem (breakage or abnormal crack)
  • Advice for beginners and others thanks to the implementation of a chat system and a blog to advise, inform and guide players during their purchases

But also, “A few more ideas in the pipeline that we will deploy as soon as possible”, Sébastien Cornet tells us!

“Don't forget where we come from”

The manager of Esprit Padel advocate Coherence in this new activity: “We must not forget who we are, and we wish stay consistent with where we come from, namely a club of padel. For most clubs padel it is complicated to have a proshop. You have to manage a stock and especially the cash. This difficulty is increased each time a mark is added. At the same time, online shops are selling more and more equipment to players. As a club manager, I am well aware of the frustration of seeing a player arrive with a racket bought on the net. Especially in the current situation. ”

The launch of the site is imminent, and Esprit Padel will quickly contact the clubs and structures to set up sponsorships. In the meantime, if you wished benefit from further explanation, do not hesitate to send an email to contact @ spirit-padel-shop.com, or dial +33 6 45 29 35 24 !
