Kettlebell sport clubs sit on an untapped apparel revenue line. The club already has 8 to 40 active members, an annual meet calendar, and a logo or club identity. What it usually lacks is the apparel program to monetize that audience without the friction of inventory and bulk minimums. Below is how to set up the apparel shop start to finish, the time it takes, the upfront cost (zero), and the math on what a kettlebell club shop earns per month at modest member-purchase rates.
| Step | Time | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Sign up free | 2 min | Create the account, name the shop, upload the club logo |
| 2. Pick the first products | 10 min | Cotton tee, performance tee, hoodie, snapback hat as a starter set |
| 3. Set retail prices | 5 min | Add $10 to $20 profit per piece on top of the VIP base |
| 4. Share the link | 2 min | Post the shop URL in the club group, on the club socials, on the club website |
| Plan | Monthly fee | Live products | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 3 | Test the model with three core pieces (tee, hoodie, hat) |
| Self-Service VIP | $59 | 200 | Active club with multiple designs, year-round shop, meet-day variants |
| Done-For-You VIP | $109 | 250 | Club director who wants an advisor handling the shop and monthly design updates |
| Club size | Members buying per month | Profit per piece | Monthly revenue to the club | Annual revenue |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 athletes | 3 (20%) | $15 | $45 | $540 |
| 30 athletes | 8 (27%) | $15 | $120 | $1,440 |
| 50 athletes | 15 (30%) | $15 | $225 | $2,700 |
| 100 athletes + 200 spectators (meet) | 60 (event-driven) | $15 | $900 event push | $3,600 + recurring base |
The model is steady-state passive plus event-driven spikes around meets.

Every shop signup includes a built-in affiliate link. A club coach who refers another club to Pro Shops earns 10% of that club's subscription forever, plus $1 per unit the referred club sells. A coach with three or four other kettlebell sport contacts in her region can build a meaningful side income on top of the club apparel margin. The affiliate is bi-weekly paid by Pro Shops, not deducted from the referred club's shop revenue.
Two minutes to sign up, zero inventory cost, full catalog access. Set your margin and share the link with members.
Start FreeZero upfront on the Free plan. The $59 VIP plan opens up the full 200-product catalog and the lower per-piece base prices, paying for itself on roughly 12 shirts a month.
No. Each piece prints when a member orders it, ships directly to her address. No warehouse, no storage, no upfront cost.
The margin between the VIP base price and the retail price the club sets is paid out to the club account. Default recommended profit is $10 per item, clubs typically set $12 to $20.
Both. The shop stays open year-round for casual member purchases, and the club can push it around meets and holidays for spikes in volume.
