Most common questions asked about the starting up of a new inflatable rental business. 

STORAGE

Inflatables are easily stored and take up very little room. Until you have more than five units, storage space should be of little concern. Bounce houses, moonwals or jumpers for rent are a great part-time business. You can easily run your new business right out of your own home! 

ADVERTISING

Yellow pages are a great way to advertise along with marketing your business using flyers, business cards & refrigerator magnets. You can also set up a bouncer at a school or church for free and hand out business cards & or magnets. Customers love business cards attached to a refrigerator magnets for quick reference next time they have a party or special event! Leaving advertising materials at a party you have set up at is also an excellent way to promote your new business. Word of mouth usually accounts for much of your business. Advertising your new business should be of minimal expense. 

WEBSITE

The Internet is a wonderful place to help your new business grow! We believe that a good quality website is essential for growth of your rental company. While a website is not 100% necessary, it is a great tool for sending customers to your website where they can view your rental inventory & choose the correct inflatable for their next party or event.  A website makes even a small company appear much bigger than they actually are & this alone will make your customers feel much more at ease & comfortable about using your company. Having an online reservation system also makes ordering from your company much more convenient for your customers.

RENTAL CONTRACT / LIABILITY WAIVER

Rental contracts or Liability waivers are essential. A rental contract is a simple way to protect you. While a rental contract is not a way to eliminate your need for insurance, it provides a way for you to give a customer a receipt and track your income while having your customer sign for your terms and conditions.   

 INSURANCE

It is recommended that liability insurance is obtained for your security & piece of mind.

EMPLOYEES

Bounce houses can be set up by one person in about ten minutes and taken down in about fifteen minutes. One person can set up from between 4-10 inflatables in a day by themselves, depending on the distance traveled and the person’s working capabilities. If you decide to hire someone to set up the units for you, the average pay is usually around $20-$25 per unit. 

WHAT ELSE WILL I NEED?

Other equipment that will need to be purchased, such as, a dolly for moving the inflatable, a few 50'  12 gauge extension cords, a small hand held vacuum, spray bottle, rags for cleaning the inflatable, additional stakes, sand bags and a hammer for securing the inflatable. This equipment can be purchased at a minimal cost. 

RECOVER YOUR INVESTMENT IN JUST A FEW MONTHS

Huge profits are being made each year with  inflatable products. Estimating conservatively, one unit will pay for itself within just a few months. National rental average for bouncers is &100.00 and most of our customers are fully booked on the weekends. Making money with Bounce House Inflatable's is fun & easy.
