Typically, when someone mentions “leasing”, you automatically think of getting a car. But for new business owners, leasing is a financial option that supports the build and growth of their business. Leasing things like equipment can be especially beneficial for basketball facility owners looking to maximize training sessions, expand their reach, and keep costs down.
If you’re a new basketball training facility owner, and not sure how to get started with leasing equipment, like a basketball shooting machine, Dr. Dish’s FCLTY Leasing Program is a great place to start. Keep reading to learn how this program was designed to benefit and support your basketball dreams.
Because shooting machines aren’t one-size-fits-all, we launched the Dr. Dish FCLTY machine, the first-ever shooting machine designed specifically for facilities, in 2022. And because a business operates differently than a school or team, we also created a leasing program exclusive to facility owners like you.
Now you may be asking, what are the benefits to leasing versus buying shooting machines? Well, good news! Here’s everything you need to know about the benefits of leasing your own Dr. Dish FCLTY machines.
1. Low Initial Investment
Most facility owners are looking into getting multiple shooting machines so they can have multiple bays and areas for training sessions. And with multiple machines comes a large total cost. But, with leasing Dr. Dish FCLTY machines, no matter how many machines you get, the cost of your initial investment will be much lower than if you were to buy. Not only will that help you stay within your budget, you will also have:
- Lower Monthly Payments
- Less Money Required Upfront
- More Money for Other Areas of Your Business
- More Opportunities to Grow and Expand Your Business
2. New Machines Every 2 Years
Technology moves fast and it can be hard to keep up with it all. Luckily when you lease with Dr. Dish, your FCLTY machines will get replaced every 2 years. These replacements come at no extra cost to you and help to keep your facilities running at all times. Not only will you get brand new machines, you will also receive the latest software and newest features we have to offer. All so your athletes can have the most advanced training experience possible.
Hear from Midwest Basketball Training’s Owner, Pat Freeman, about how important the low upfront costs and machine replacements via the FCLTY Leasing Program has been for rapidly growing his business across the Twin Cities.
3. preventative Maintenance
Even though you will receive new shooting machines every 2 years, we know that up-time is key to the growth of your business. And to help reduce general machine and overall costs, there will be service parts included with all of your Dr. Dish FCLTY machines. Which means unlikely issues can be resolved in minutes instead of days, keeping everything functioning and running smoothly.

4. revenue Generation
Shooting machine leasing is becoming more and more popular as the number of new basketball training facilities continue to rise. While this option is a big cost saver, it is also a big revenue generator, making Dr. Dish's FCLTY Leasing Program the go-to choice for entrepreneurs who are looking for ways to grow fast and efficiently.
Facility owners who are utilizing Dr. Dish FCLTY machines are able to stand out from other businesses that don't have shooting machines. Owners are creating "batting cages for basketball" with the help of Dr. Dish's training efficiencies and industry-leading technology. More ways to train means more opportunities and reps for players training at your facility.
Whether the machines are just a part of day-to-day business operations (i.e. being incorporated at the end of training sessions) or are the main focal point of the facility's offerings (memberships for the Dr. Dish shooting bays), both are great options to generate more revenue for your business.
If you’re interested in leasing a FCLTY machine, you’ll get connected with your personal Dr. Dish Rep and talk about the vision and goals you have for your business. From there, you and your rep will work closely together on the options and layout of your leasing agreement. Once everything is signed, we will ship out your machine(s) from our Headquarters in Minnesota. And then? Watch your basketball facility come to life.
