The words of Ostap Bender "a car is not a luxury, but a means of transportation" today can be safely paraphrased "a car is not a luxury, but a means for making money." This idea is visited by many people with an entrepreneurial streak. Still, mobility allows you not to wait for the client, but to go to him with your own set of services and goods. Here is what forum member bomba78 said about this: “Being in demand where there are crowds of people is an obvious competitive advantage.”
Gentleman's set of business on wheels
Gentleman's set business on wheels includes - fast food, car shop, auto repair on call and evacuation. “In Russia, the lion's share of mobile entrepreneurship falls on the listed positions,” says Petr Yagodin, an expert on small business. - At the same time, in the West, this list is much wider. People offer original and even extravagant services and always find customers.”
And how are they?
The popular information portal MSN published an article with photographs showing how Western entrepreneurs earn money by owning a car. Another site, Entrepreneur.com, told of a successful mobile beauty salon that cruised off the coast. In general, a review of the foreign press revealed many interesting business ideas. This is a gym on wheels, a cinema with special effects, a fear room, a photo workshop, a play center for children and much more.
“Americans love to have big outdoor parties,” said businessman Michael Krasnoff. - Usually such flash mobs are always accompanied by "entertainment on wheels".
By the way, Russia also has interesting ideas. For example, - original business with national color.
Tire fitting on wheels
“Mobile tire changers are designed for those who have punctured more than one wheel on the road,” the forum member Administrator comments on this idea. - In this case, the spare wheel will not save. You will either need to call a tow truck, or look for a stationary workshop nearby, which, again, you need to somehow get to. You can also get spare wheels or fill with temporary filler (some models allow this). But all these methods are very costly. And driving on broken or punctured wheels is more expensive for yourself. After such a trip, repairs will cost a round sum. In this case, tire fitting on wheels will come in handy. If the niche is not occupied, then the business can be quite profitable. You can negotiate with companies that provide towing services so that they can call this tire shop.
This idea was somewhat expanded by Vasaholy: “It is logical to equip such a Gazelle with an additional tool, in particular, a starter charger and call it auto-assistance.”
commercial emergency gang
It is clear that accidents on utility networks should be eliminated by municipal services. However, the experience of other countries has shown that commercial emergency gangs have the right to life. “We can leave in a matter of minutes to maintain heat supply in apartment buildings, for example, when the heating plant broke through, - said the Polish businessman Jakub Lewandowski from the company "szybki podgrzew". - Capabilities of the boiler, which is installed on 
"Mercedes Sprinter", allows you to maintain autonomous heating in a building with thirty apartments. It's expensive, but the authorities and the landlord always go to pay for our services. We serve quite a large area.” This experience is also relevant because in Russia accidents with heat supply happen regularly.
Mobile club
An interesting proposal posted with social network"Vkontakte" one company, saying that "any holiday event- a birthday, a wedding, a meeting of old friends or classmates - you always want to spend it in such a way as to remember this day for many years. But, basically, a long choice of a venue for this event ends with a painful choice - to celebrate in nature, in a restaurant or in a nearby nightclub ... ".
We are talking about a mobile club - incendiary "parties" on wheels. Forum member dJ_zevs reported a similar experience: “My friend and I have parties in the countryside - discos, movies on the big screen, karaoke. In essence, we are a mobile entertainment center.”
Cinema 5D on wheels
A club on wheels is good, but a 5D cinema is cooler, the Samsonov brothers from the Russian outback decided. To implement their idea, they purchased a mobile attraction in Ukraine, which they placed in the KUNG of their truck. “We travel around the villages,” says the elder Samsonov, Oleg. - The cinema has its own source of electricity. There is little fun in the countryside, so people go to films with special effects with their whole families. The equipment cost 1.2 million rubles - expensive of course. Tickets are sold at 100 rubles for a child, and 150 for an adult. Repeated session is half the price. As a result, we take away 30-40 thousand rubles from one point. It seems that for this attraction, the mobile version is more profitable than the stationary one.
There is a certain logic in this text. The villagers never miss a moment to gather with the whole village, and thus 
more to say "we are no worse than others." Therefore, going around the regional villages, you can earn more than sitting in the basement on the main street of a provincial town.
Shoe shop in the car
Another popular in the village mobile business- is a shoe workshop on wheels. It can easily be placed in the "Niva", decorating the body of the car with a sign "shoe repair". “Of course, in those villages where there is a shoemaker, there is nothing to look for,” Ivan Egorov, an entrepreneur from Perm, shared his secret. - But where he is a "outlandish bird", you can safely expect a full house. This business is so good, you can be content with a simple hand tool. I drive in circles, visit the surrounding villages once every three months, and in a couple of days I fix the shoes of the local villagers.” The same can be said about clothing repair.
Hotel anywhere
One enterprising American built a real five-room hotel from an old bus. This was announced by Russian traveler Yuri Vasiliev, who recently returned from the United States. Some interesting events are constantly taking place in America, either the championship of professional boxers, or the presentation of a new film. And hundreds of thousands of fans rush from one end of the mainland to the other. As a rule, on the days of the "invasions" there are no free hotel rooms, and people pitch tents. The cost of any decent "removal" increases to a thousand dollars a day. This is what the porter on wheels uses, following the restless lovers of spectacles.

Starting your own business requires large investments from the start, often with high risks.
And this risk is the greater, the less experience in the industry a person who decides to implement the idea. This is especially true of the restaurant business: if you open it without having a clue what it is, the effect is often deplorable.
So maybe it's not worth taking risks and taking the first steps in a business in which you do not have enough experience? The answer is worth it! But you need to minimize the risk. Instead of a stationary one, you can choose a mobile form of company activity.
By using an equipped van, you won't have to spend money on rent as you would with renting a space. You will also be able to approach clients in many commercially attractive locations. And if the interest of consumers does not bring you the expected profit or you get tired of your mobile business, you can easily resell it in full.
The following are examples of some of the businesses that can be implemented with a specially equipped vehicle. We also recommend that you look for inspiration for a four-wheeled business on your own.
food truck
The food truck is becoming more and more commonplace on the streets of Polish cities. The fashion for vans that sell food was brought from the United States and mastered the first European capitals. Above the Vistula, the first food trucks appeared in 2010, but did not become popular. Two years later, the idea of mobile bars fell on fertile ground.
At first, there were very few food trucks throughout the country. Now there are more than 20 of them in Warsaw alone. Most of them offer burgers. They are very popular because this food is inexpensive and of good quality. In addition, the food is always fresh, because there is not enough space in the van for long-term storage of a large amount of food.
The growing number of food trucks means more competition for their owners. Therefore, venturing into such a business, you need to know what will be your highlight. Camille Domurad and Natasha Khabinovskaya, the owners of a snack truck aptly named "Predatory Bull", came to this conclusion.
“We didn’t want to offer burgers like everyone else, so we decided to adapt the ideas of American cuisine to Polish realities. And therefore, instead of making minced beef, we cut it into slices,” explains Kamil Domurad.
The Predatory Bull has been offering hot sandwiches based on such meat since December last year at prices ranging from 15 to 20 zlotys (4-8 dollars). The signature dish is pastrami or marinated or baked beef brisket. The van is increasingly seen at Warsaw cultural events, street food festivals, promotions from food trucks.
“You have to provide yourself with a good place to trade in order to make this business pay off, and this is not easy. Therefore, now we work only during mass events,” Natasha Chabinovskaya admits.
What serves as the basis for "The Predatory Bull"? This is Peugeot J5, designed in 1981-1993.
Cafe
Not every business on four wheels requires the purchase of a real truck. You can often quite successfully use also cars, slightly rebuilt.
This is what Kalina and Simon Korusov did, who used an old polonaise car to launch their Cafe on Wheels. Now residents of Katowice can order coffee for 5-12 złoty ($2-3) in a car stylized as 1930s.
"It all started with the fact that one fine day a colleague brought Colombian coffee Juan Valdes. We liked it and tried to buy more. It turned out that the world-famous product is practically inaccessible to us. We managed to order several online store. In a new passion, we decided to go a step further and opened a cafe," says Kalina Korus.
Mobility gives "Cafe on Wheels" the opportunity to appear in different places, participate in events and festivals.
“We come to the client, and not vice versa. We are everywhere where there is a need and desire for good coffee. In addition, this is our first attempt at business, and the costs and risks are less than at a stationary point,” Kalina Korus admits.
On weekdays, "Cafe on Wheels" can be found on the campus of the University of Silesia, and on weekends - in the park "Valley of Three Ponds".
Is the coffee business promising? Yes, but provided that it is implemented in a big city. The report “Poland on a Platter”, prepared by the Homo Homini Institute on behalf of Makro Cash & Carry, says that visiting cafes is, first of all, a part of life in the capital. It is also important that Poles choose local cafes more often than chain ones.
“More and more people live in accordance with the principles of slowness, identify with their area, city, and support conscious entrepreneurs working there: owners of cafes, restaurants, shops and bakeries,” says Anna Karasinska, head of the public opinion research institute Homo Homini .
Score
Industry most of all - together with gastronomy - uses vehicles converted for trade for commercial purposes. There are hundreds of companies that have a range of these machines and run mobile commerce.
Most often, small bakeries and meat products manufacturers decide to buy a shop on wheels. Vehicles designed for this type of activity have a body made of insulated sandwich panels, a side wall that opens to the full length, a waterproof floor and furniture. Automobiles are becoming increasingly popular, through which consumer goods can be sold. They are equipped with a set of shelves, showcases for the presentation of goods, a counter, a refrigerator and are an interesting alternative to a classic store. Mobility gives the owner the opportunity to test his potential as a seller in many often remote locations.
A converted car is also an attractive solution for clothing distribution companies. Some vehicle adaptation service providers commercial activity offer to increase the capacity of the car by extending its rear. The resulting space can be used, for example, as a changing room for clients. The platform itself can be used to present products and conduct transactions.
Tires
Changing tires, as everyone knows, seasonal business, but the chances of success for a project based on a commercial vehicle equipped with tire maintenance equipment are now higher than ever before due to an amendment in the law imposing heavy fines on those car owners who will not use winter tires from 1 November to March 31st.
What funds will have to be invested? Professionally designed 13-year-old Mercedes Sprinter with full equipment and warranty service(compressor, generator, tire changer, balance wheel and lifting wheel) will cost 18 thousand US dollars. If you decide to do business on changing tires, prepare flyers in advance and take care of your presence on the Internet. Thanks to this, during the season (autumn and spring) you can count on a stable supply of retail customers. Buyers will pay between $13 and $50 for replacement tires, depending on type and size.
After the season, it makes sense to apply with a proposal to taxi and car rental services. Such companies may be interested not only in the repair or replacement of tires, but also in the purchase of new tires. This year is the ideal time to start this type of business, because the market is still not very competitive.
A mobile tire changer can also be a good addition to a stationary car service. So it was, for example, with the company from Wroclaw Autopon.
"During periods of increased frequency of exchange car tires, our car can serve 15-20 cars in one sitting. We send it to the headquarters of the service customer company for tire changes both in official vehicles and in private vehicles owned by employees. The process is smooth, fast and convenient, because one delegated person comes from the company with all the keys and adjusts the cars," explains Anatoly Kiselevich, owner of the Autopon website. He bought a mobile tire changer in 2011, and since then his services constantly used by several large companies.
Floristics or...
If you are looking for ideas for a business on four wheels, then you should turn to its origins, that is, the United States. There is no end to inspiration because foreign companies provide mobile services even in those sectors that may seem to be exclusively the area of stationary objects. What about initiatives such as a mobile clinic on the bus, for example, where you can detox and recover from drinking, or confirm or deny your paternity? And in Las Vegas, they offer hangover recovery in just 45 minutes just on the bus. Any New Yorker can do a DNA test in a car. For $ 230, they do a study, the results of which will be known only a few days later.
We do not recommend taking such risks right away, but having studied the flourishing mobile American companies you can find something more traditional. For lovers of flowers, for example, the story of a resident of Los Angeles can become an impulse to action.
"I dreamed of my own business since I was 20 years old. I had many ideas, but I did not have enough funds to implement them. One day I received a collapsible flower vase from a friend. I looked at it and suddenly it dawned on me. I decided to start a mobile flower shop" says Jennifer Kaplan, owner of the flower truck.
She managed to draw up a business plan in three months. She bought a wrecked ice cream car, which she converted with the help of her friends into a charming flower shop. People have loved the Flower Truck so much that Jennifer is currently preparing flower arrangements not only for the general public, but also for events, festivals and weddings.
Among our domestic lovers of non-standard and active recreation, traveling in bus houses is not yet as popular as in the West. But this happens not because of some special national mentality, but because of the lack of offers on the market for such means for travel and recreation. Not only that, experts say that once a company appears that starts mass-producing such motorhomes, its products will immediately become very popular, provided that it can meet the three most important conditions that guarantee its commercial success:
- affordability;
- high quality;
- variety of trade offers.
If, as it seems to me, everything is clear with price and quality, then I will tell you separately why it is so important to comply with the condition of a variety of goods when mastering the business idea “Creation, sale and rental of bus houses”. The main reason for this is that you will always be able to attract the widest possible number of buyers, since you will offer goods at different prices. Someone can afford a “minibus” rebuilt as a house, while another buyer is much more suitable for a real mansion, converted from a multi-seat double-decker Mercedes bus.
But, of course, one should not forget about quality, because without it, not a single successful sale of a motorhome made by you will be possible.
And turning a bus into a house is not as difficult as it seems, and anyone with the skills of a plumbing or carpentry repair is able to do it. The conversion of a bus into a travel home begins with the partial removal of the floor, ceiling and walls, as at least all interior surfaces need to be completely replaced. This is done in order, firstly, to achieve complete soundproofing of the cabin, and, secondly, to protect the inhabitants of the motor home from cold and heat.
Only after this begins the arrangement of housing, in which you must place:
- beds, dining table and chairs;
- wardrobe for storage of luggage and kitchen utensils;
- the kitchen itself, and work surfaces for cooking;
- a washbasin is also needed, and ideally a shower, which entails the need to place a container to store significant amounts of water;
- you also need a toilet, under which a separate autonomous room is allocated;
- windows can be closed with both curtains and blinds, but if we are talking about a large bus, many of them can be removed, replaced with light-tight bulkheads, which will make the future home even more comfortable;
- also take care of lighting, heating, and, of course, do not forget about the power sources of all installed electrical appliances;
- for greater comfort, install a TV, music center, and on the roof - an antenna for receiving Internet and TV signals.
The most interesting thing is that all of the above can be placed in the smallest bus, provided that you show engineering talent, and you can make all the furniture in the bus retractable. So the bed for the daytime can rise to the ceiling, and the table and chairs can be removed, if necessary, into the wall. You can go the way that the inhabitants of tiny Japanese apartments have chosen for themselves, who install low furniture and a moving floor, descending, it covers the “ground floor” of your house (conditionally - seating, eating and kitchen), turning the bus interior into bedroom.
You should also take care of a removable awning, which can be installed during stops. Such an awning will increase the living space at once, allowing literally in a few minutes to set up a tent next to the bus, which can accommodate both a “dining room” and a “living room”, as well as a completely comfortable “bedroom”. And, of course, let's not forget that the roof of the bus can be used no less effectively, on which a refrigerator for storing food and drinks is perfectly placed, or the same water containers, or lockable compartments for storing luggage, which can be climbed up a ladder securely fixed on board the motorhome.
Business on wheels - features of running + 8 steps to open it + basic financial investments + description of 5 relevant ideas.
An unsuccessfully chosen place for the sale of goods or the provision of services is almost always a failure and loss for the entrepreneur.
And few can find the strength in themselves, and also have additional funds to start all over again.
If you have a fear of "burning out" precisely because you can choose the wrong place, then business on wheels- this is really a way out and a solution to the problem.
Especially if you do not want to deal with renting and repairing the premises.
In our country, this is already a fairly familiar and well-known way of doing business, but in Europe and the USA it is more common.
Mobile beauty salons, nightclubs, right in cars there have long been perceived as something outlandish and unusual.
Let's take a look at a few ideas that are working successfully with us.
Features and benefits of running a business on wheels
Open mobile business doesn't take a lot of work.
An entrepreneur does not need to look for a suitable premises, make repairs in it and hire a large staff.
It is enough to decide on the idea, buy the necessary car, re-equip it and start your “journey” to different parts of the city in search of a profitable place.
A business on wheels, like any other, is focused on a large number of customers.
But its main difference from the "stationary" one is that in case of failure, you can easily move to a more advantageous place.
In addition, a business on wheels has a number of other advantages:
- there is no need to spend time and money looking for a suitable room;
- relatively small investments and regular expenses;
- minimum investment in advertising;
- Pretty easy to get permits.
If the chosen direction still could not bring the entrepreneur the expected results, he will be able to resell even a converted car and not incur large losses.
Another option might be to try your hand at another business idea that could also be rolled out.
Procedure for opening a business on wheels
Detailed study and careful planning of the implementation of a conceived business idea are the key actions to be taken before starting entrepreneurial activity.Without knowledge of work in the chosen direction of business, as well as without drawing up an action plan and financial calculations, it is impossible to organize a stable and profitable business, no matter how profitable and profitable it may seem at first glance.
- choose the organizational and legal form: IP, LLC;
- determine the form of taxation;
- obtain permits from the sanitary and epidemiological station and the fire inspection;
- obtain permits to conduct business activities in local authorities.
Acquisition of equipment and, if necessary, goods.
After buying a car, you need to start searching and purchasing equipment.
This is the second largest expense item in the amount of the initial investment.
Depending on the chosen direction of activity, you need to purchase all necessary equipment and goods that will be needed in the course of work.
Personnel search.
The idea of a business on wheels does not require a large investment in staff.At first, you can do the work yourself and hire a shift, who needs to be trained in all issues and nuances, as well as working with equipment.
It is important that the employee has the rights of a certain category.
But you may have to hire a driver who will overtake the car if the employee himself cannot do this.
In any case, the cost of staff salaries will not be too high.
The idea of a business on wheels is not so much in need of active advertising.
Here you need to find a "cereal" place with a large flow of people, or consider an area where there is a demand for your activity among the population.
Depending on the chosen field of activity, it is necessary to develop a marketing strategy, the tools of which will be used during the implementation of the idea.
After completing this process, you can safely choose a place, go to the first planned point and start work.
Remember that in case of failure, you can start the car right that day and go to another place.
Study of consumer demand in a particular area.
Many mistakenly believe that if a business on wheels is not tied to a specific place, then there is no need to study demand.
It's not like that at all.
Agree that even by car it is not profitable to send 200 km to another settlement just because people there need something.
Therefore, you need to study the unoccupied niches in your city and analyze their need among the population and choose several directions for yourself.
Generating a business idea.
The best option would be the direction in which you have certain knowledge or experience.
If they are not there, but there is a long-standing dream to try something new, then you need to start studying it and start acting.
This document is drawn up in any case.
Even if you have your own funds to start a business, do not neglect this stage.
A business plan will help analyze the profitability of investing in an idea, calculate the amount of capital investment, and will also serve detailed instructions actions to be taken.
Buying and branding a car.
Depending on the idea of a business on wheels you choose, you will need to purchase a new or used car.
It can be a passenger or passenger vehicle that can fit into the concept of the idea.
After the purchase, you can start branding the car.
This refers to its refurbishment and development of a design that will fit the intended idea.
Registration.
The procedure for registering a business on wheels is carried out in the usual way.
You need:

As mentioned above, the business plan of the chosen idea includes detailed calculations initial investment and regular investment.The starting capital for the implementation of the idea will consist of the following expenses:
- buying a car;
- its refurbishment and branding;

Regardless of which business idea is chosen, one cannot do without investing in the purchase of the appropriate car.
It must be selected depending on what you decide to do.
For example, in some idea you can limit yourself to a passenger car, but for something you will need a van, truck or even a bus.
Car examples:
- Toyota DD;
- Volkswagen Caddy;

- branding and styling of a car - $5000-10000.
The rest of the investment will depend on what you plan to do.
5 relevant business ideas on wheels
A business on wheels can be implemented in the form of many ideas.
They may relate to food and non-food trade and the provision of services.
Let's consider several options.
1. Coffee to go
This is the most popular idea for a business on wheels, and of course we can't help but dwell on it.In Russia and Ukraine, you can increasingly notice.
The essence of the idea is to trade in coffee that visitors can take with them and enjoy a drink on the go.
To open a business, you will need to purchase a water tank, an electric generator, a showcase, a professional coffee machine, a coffee grinder and refrigeration equipment small sizes for storing cream and milk.
Regular investments in such an idea of a business on wheels are presented in the form of the purchase of high-quality coffee, sugar, milk, cream, syrups, consumables - plastic or paper cups and napkins.
You need to place a mobile point in crowded places - metro stations, bus stations, business centers, educational establishments and city parks.
2. Mobile coffee shop or canteen
This business on wheels idea is more advanced than the previous one.There are two development options, among which you can choose the one that suits you:
Fast food to go.
This includes such products: hot dogs, donuts, sandwiches, pizzas and other similar foods.
Depending on the assortment you choose, you may need a microwave oven to warm up dishes, a coffee machine, a hot dog maker, a waffle iron, a pancake maker.
Refrigeration equipment and a powerful electric generator will be mandatory.
Cooking will not work, except for hot dogs, so you need to find suppliers who will provide you with blanks and semi-finished products.
Or you can cook meals yourself in a stationary room, and sell them already in fast food on wheels.
Full dining area with seating.
To implement such a business on wheels, you cannot limit yourself to a passenger car, because you will need to purchase a full-fledged bus, which is subsequently divided into two parts: a small kitchen and the cafe itself with several tables.
The range of dishes offered may be the same as in the option described above.
In order not to be sprayed on a menu with many positions, we recommend choosing a narrow specialization - pizzeria, donut shop.
And the cafe itself can stand in one place or move around the city together with visitors.
3. Tire service or mobile emergency service
Car owners often find themselves in unforeseen situations - tire punctures, car breakdowns.Naturally, you won’t be able to leave, which is why mobile workshops were invented that deal with emergency repairs.
The point of this idea of a business on wheels is that when a driver has a problem, he calls a similar service, which comes to him and fixes the problem.
For these purposes, you will need to choose a car in the form of a van with the equipment and tools that are necessary for car maintenance.
To implement such an idea, active advertising is needed.
As with the previous options, when people just walk past you, it will not work to make themselves known.
Here you will already need to work on call, so promote your business in all known ways.
4. Store
“The types of business are different, but the business as a system remains the same, regardless of its scale and structure, products, technologies and markets.”
Peter Drucker
One of the walls of the truck is a showcase with goods.
To realize this idea, you can trade both food products - pastries, fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, and non-food products - clothing, jewelry, accessories and more.
In the case of a food group of goods, it is imperative to obtain the appropriate permits, as well as make such investments - buy a showcase of an electric generator and refrigeration equipment, which will be responsible for the safety and freshness of products.
If you are thinking about getting into trading, then for a start, take a closer look at the business on wheels.
And then you will have a chance to find a really profitable place where the sales volume will meet your expectations.
Another one original idea business on wheels discussed in the video:
5. Cinema
The idea of a business on wheels in the form of a mobile cinema is relevant both in small towns or villages, where there is practically no entertainment, and in large settlements, especially in areas remote from the center.By installing a projector and a few seats, you can travel around your city or nearby settlements, and give their residents the opportunity to have fun.
In this case, you need to take care of acquiring not only equipment, but also a license to broadcast films.
The latter will be presented as regular attachments.
Business on wheels is not limited to these ideas.
If you have a good imagination for generating ideas, and you are not afraid to take risks, then you can easily implement almost any conceived project, which, when done this way, is distinguished by a quick payback.
And this is not surprising, because you get a unique opportunity to move around the city in search of a profitable place.
Therefore, find a suitable car, buy the necessary equipment, make detailed business plan and get started.
And remember that success does not come to those who do nothing.

We bring to your attention 6 summer attractions that will definitely bring you profit. Naturally, subject to proper organization, including a good location, the quality of the attraction and the level of work of operators.
Trampoline slide
If you ask an entrepreneur which of the attractions in his mini-park is the most proven and reliable in terms of earnings, then you will probably hear in response - a trampoline - a slide! And indeed, children love trampolines so much, and if it also has a slide, not a single child can pass by such a miracle.
Installing a trampoline slide in any crowded place with children will definitely bring profit. This is such a proven business that it can be compared to a bread stall.
Trampolines
How much money do you need for trampolines
The recipe for success in this business is extremely simple. A trampoline slide is purchased, costing from 300,000 rubles. Everything that is cheaper, as a rule, does not look very interesting, which means it attracts less attention. The slide should be big, like the trampoline itself, then the children will come to it again and again. During the summer season, some children jump on the same trampoline at least 20 times, and parents leave several thousand rubles on just one attraction. The advantage of the trampoline slide is that it works even in the sleeping areas of the city. The more young families living in the district, the better. For this reason, there are a lot of places to place this attraction. The payback of a trampoline slide, subject to a good location, is no more than 2 months.
Tyr
Another proven entertainment business of all time is the opening of a shooting range. First of all, we are talking about a classic, pneumatic shooting range. In any resort town, on any beach and city park, shooting ranges are constantly in demand. Where there are a lot of vacationers spinning, shooting galleries are constantly packed with arrows.
How much can you earn by opening a shooting gallery
Shooting ranges are profitable because they are equally interesting for both men and women. The cost of the game, as a rule, does not exceed 50 rubles, which is an excellent bait. But after all, things never end with one shot, so the average client leaves at least 300 rubles in the dash.
How much money do you need to open a shooting range
For a novice entrepreneur, a shooting gallery is attractive because it requires minimal start-up costs. Often, it takes no more than 100 thousand rubles to open a tent with pneumatics, and everything invested can pay off in a couple of city celebrations (May 9, Youth Day).
Mobile 5-d cinema
It may seem to some that 5-d attractions have long gone out of fashion. Yes, there is no hype anymore, but the business still generates income. Children love this entertainment very much, and parents can take it with them. 5-d attraction (or 7-d) can be safely called family entertainment. Unlike real amusement park rides, 5-d cinemas seem completely safe and at the same time bring no less thrills. In our town (100 thousand inhabitants) for the past 5 years, starting in the spring, they have been putting up a 5-d cinema, and in the same place. And they don't complain about attendance. As you walk past, you can always see a few people waiting in line. The main criterion for success is to update the tracks on time and customers will come again.
Step-by-step plan for opening a 5-d attraction (or 7-d)
You can choose two formats of work - stationary, when the attraction is always in one place and mobile, when the cinema moves around small regional cities and towns. The first option is good because it requires less hassle and earns on regular customers. However, there is also a minus - over time, entertainment becomes boring, and the cinema begins to bring less profit. The mobile format of work, on the contrary, is more labor-intensive, but the organizer always receives excess profit. Since the arrival of such a wonderful entertainment in any village causes a storm of positive emotions among local residents, and there is no end to those who wish for 2-3 days.
Catapult (blob)
Perhaps one of the most striking and exciting beach attractions is a water catapult or blob. Installing such a thing on any beach causes a storm of admiration and crowds of people who want to get adrenaline or just show off in public.
The attraction consists of only two components: a jumping tower and an inflatable cushion, like a trampoline. The length of the pillow (blob) is on average 6 meters, and the width is at least 2.5 m. The flight range from the catapult depends on the height of the fall and the mass of the jumper.
How much can you earn on a water catapult
The average price of a jump from a blob is 200 rubles. It takes no more than 10 minutes per client, including briefing, preparation, putting on a vest and the jump itself. For one beach day, the attraction can take up to 35 people, thereby earning 7000 rubles. The water catapult itself can be purchased directly on the Internet, and the tower can be ordered at any local factory that welds metal structures.
Difficulties in this case
The main difficulty in this case is to “knock out” permission to install an attraction. Depending on who owns part of the beach, you should contact either the local administration or the owner of the land (more precisely, the tenant). You can count on a quick payback of a blob only in resort towns, where there are always a lot of vacationers who are ready to spend money on any entertainment. On the city beaches of the middle zone of the Russian Federation, the blob will work for no more than a month, due to weather conditions.
Flyboard - water extreme from the future
Flyboard rental is a business idea for resort towns. This is a mega-flying novelty that captures the attention of absolutely all vacationers.
About Flyboard
Flyboard is a jet water board, which due to jet boots allows you to rise above the water up to 10 meters. The rider can not only rise, but also dive into the water. It looks very cool and unusual. The following video demonstrates how the flyboard works:
The operation of the entire system comes from the jet ski motor. If you install a similar rental in a resort town like Yalta or Sochi, there will be no end to those who wish.
How much can you earn on a flyboard
The average price for 15 minutes of rental is 3000 rubles. Even if only 5 people use the rental per day, the revenue will be 15,000 rubles. For 20 - 25 days of work, you can earn about 350,000 rubles, and for three summer months - more than a million. Although in fact, the income can be 2-3 times more if the number of rentals per day is 10 - 12. The only drawback of the attraction is its price. For a set that includes a flyboard, boots, an 18m hose, a pipe-connector to a jet ski, you will have to pay at least 250,000 rubles. Plus, you will have to purchase a jet ski, which doubles the amount of investment.
Attraction "ladder" and "horizontal bar"
The record holders for collecting net profits at mass festivities are the horizontal bar and the ladder rides. Oddly enough, they are still in demand, although they are no longer considered novelties. Attractions always gather crowds of people, one has only to try to climb the stairs or hold out for a few minutes on a spinning horizontal bar.
How much can you earn on the attraction
For one brisk holiday, the costs invested in the purchase of a horizontal bar or stairs can pay off 2-3 times. Rough calculation:
- Ticket price - 100 rubles. (given 2 attempts)
- Number of attempts per day - 200
- Revenue - 20,000 rubles.
Even if someone manages to get to the main prize (for example, mobile phone), the organizer still remains in profit.
How much money do you need for an attraction
Buying a new attraction will cost 8 - 10 thousand rubles, but you can also find used ones. y. options. In any case, earnings entirely depend on the attraction worker. We need a person who knows how to work with the public, active and with a sense of humor. The best places to place the attraction are embankments in resort towns. Here, the horizontal bar or stairs will work at least 100 days a year (while the holiday season lasts). The most difficult thing in this case is to knock out a place for the placement of the attraction. As a rule, high-passable places (namely, such places we need) are far from cheap in terms of rent.
