From RockRat2008: you’re going to lose potential students and long term customers if you start trying to force new divers to buy gear.
What you’re doing by implementing this ’system’ is playing the odds! Stats for O/W divers continuing with their training is not great. So, this is your best chance to move gear because most divers won’t continue diving anyway. Business is business, inventory turn over is what keeps the profits up.
But if you are interested in getting them to continue to dive, stats show that divers who own their own gear continue to dive. It’s a win-win!
