The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) recently unveiled an exciting, one-of-a-kind new event: the NSSF Range-Retailer Business Expo, slated for Aug. 19-21 in Denver, Colorado.

According to its website, “NSSF leads the way in advocating for the industry and its businesses and jobs, keeping guns out of the wrong hands, encouraging enjoyment of recreational shooting and hunting, and helping people better understand the industry’s lawful products.”

And certainly this debut event fits with the NSSF’s mission “to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports.”

I can tell you that everyone here at the USCCA is especially excited about this debut event for a couple of reasons:

  1. We love meeting business owners — like you — who share our values and are committed to helping people become the ultimate protectors of their loved ones.
  2. We have big news … and the NSSF Range-Retailer Business Expo is the perfect time and place to release our new initiative.

USCCA to Serve as Presenting Sponsor

That’s why I’m beyond thrilled to share that the USCCA is the “Presenting Sponsor” at this inaugural expo (a fancy way of saying you’ll likely be seeing our logo everywhere!). And though I can’t spill the beans just yet, I can tell you that we have a super exciting announcement we’ll be making at the event!

We are incredibly proud to be involved in helping the NSSF bring businesses of the firearms industry closer together — which, in turn, will help strengthen the industry as a whole.

According to the NSSF, the event “has it all for everyone — from businesses in the startup phase to the nation’s leading establishments. The Range-Retailer Business Expo is geared for entrepreneurs, startups and existing firearms range and retail operators looking to launch, sustain and grow their businesses by adopting new practices to improve operations and enhance the customer experience.”

There will be a variety of interesting “tracks” available over the course of three days, including helpful seminars, open discussions and top-notch keynote speakers.

Firearms Range or Retailer? Join Us at the NSSF Range-Retailer Business Expo

If you represent a range or a retailer — regardless of where you are on your business journey — this event is one you won’t want to miss. The NSSF promises “unparalleled insight from industry experts on the newest operational methods, business strategy, technology, marketing and changes others are making to take their businesses to the next level.” Of course, the USCCA will have a booth (#107) at the event, and we’d love to connect with you there! (Plus, you’re not going to want to miss that special announcement!)

Again, the NSSF Range-Retailer Business Expo will be held Aug. 19-21 in Denver, Colorado. You can register right here: https://www.nssf.org/expo/.

We look forward to seeing you in Denver and hope you’ll join us at 8 a.m. on Tuesday August 20th in the General Session room (Juniper B/C). I’ll be speaking on some of the key lessons I’ve learned in business and in life and, of course, I’ll be talking about the USCCA’s big news. My hope is that the session will get you thinking about new ways to expand and improve your business — and save lives in the process!
