Owning a bounce house business is so much fun. An inflatables business isn’t just fun, it’s profitable too! And unlike other businesses…growing too fast is a bigger concern than not growing at all.<\/p>\n

There are a few questions you want to ask yourself when starting an inflatables business.<\/p>\n

Why would I want to start a moonwalk business?<\/p>\n

Moonbounce rentals are a great home based business with a low initial investment with extremely fast cash return.<\/p>\n

What’s the start up cost?<\/p>\n

Set up your company. Talk<\/a> to an account to check out the local business laws and make sure your business is set up correctly for accounting. Assume you’re going to grow quite a bit. (It’s alot easier to act like a business from the beginning than backtrack later). Pick a name that’s fun and exciting. Decide what kind of rentals you’d like to do…birthday parties, large events…or both!<\/p>\n

After you decide what equipment you want, start talking with manufacturers and place your order. Most orders take up to 4 weeks for delivery so plan ahead.<\/p>\n

Where do I find Customers?<\/p>\n

Birthday parties, church events, family reunions, post prom parties, summer camps, corporate picnics & events, holiday parties, store promotions, school parties, street fairs and festivals (be careful with street fairs and festivals…talk to your salesperson about the risks of “pay for play”), swap meets, pre-schools, day cares, Halloween festivals, fund raisers, car dealerships, grand openings, shopping malls and lots lots more…don’t forget family reunions. Look for all the posibilities! And look for kids Everywhere!<\/p>\n

How long before I’ll show a profit?<\/p>\n

If your bounce rental is $150.00 (which is a low standard in much of the country…based on average rentals of 1 1\/2 times a week for 7 months (very few of us work 12 mos\/year, You should make approx $6750.00 for that one unit. If you want to maximize your rentals…really push that unit. Assume you rent another 2 times a week at 1\/2 price. This adds $4500.00 for the 7 mos. Total income turning into $11,250….for just one unit that costs less than 3,000.00. Just image what you can do if you add to your profit with packages…or purchase 3 more bounces! 4 bounces averaging $225.00 each week for 30 weeks + $27,000.00. Not bad for a part time home business!<\/p>\n

How Can I grow?<\/p>\n

Just start adding more equipment. Just don’t purchase too much at a time. The most successful rental companies maximize the use of their equipment. Before you spend a fortune on a “showpiece” work the numbers and make sure it’ll make you more money than you would make if you bought 2-3 less expensive pieces.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind that inflatables are simple items…easy to take care of and easy to repair. Just keep a patch kit on hand in case you ever have an emergency.<\/p>\n

What do I do now?<\/p>\n

Go out and MAKE SOME MONEY!!!<\/p>\n
