In this episode, Nicole and Sarah host Kelly Pilla, co-owner of Ski Haus,to discuss running her family's three New England ski shops. Starting as a college student who met her future husband on the job, Kelly shares how they started with their first store in Salem, NH in 1988 and expanded to locations in Framingham and Woburn, MA.
Kelly highlights Ski Haus' popular trade-in and junior lease programs, which help make skiing more affordable for growing families. She emphasizes the value of professional equipment fitting, safety checks, and having access to knowledgeable staff who actively ski and understand the products they sell.
We cover Ski Haus' evolution as a year-round business, combining winter sports with patio furniture sales. Kelly discusses their professional tuning services, customer appreciation events, and ski bus trips to various New England mountains.
We loved talking about the importance of supporting local ski shops and the unique value they provide through personalized service, equipment expertise, and building community among skiing families.
