Bounce House Business Behind The Scenes | Drop Off and Pickups From a Busy Weekend

  • Behind the scenes of owning my bounce house business, The Jump Off!
    This vlog was shot in Aug 2020 and at the time my bounce house business was doing only weekend rentals, meaning we dropped all the waterslides off on Friday and picked them all up on Monday.
    We have since changed our rental procedure to a more typical 1 day rental! The reason; renting all weekend was VERY damaging to the slides. They wore out so much faster than we anticipated.
    So, this was an average Friday, dropping off bounce houses and inflatable water slides, and an average Monday of picking them up.
    Now that we have updated our rental procedures, this is still fairly typical of a weekend, we just do the drops Saturday morning and pickups Sunday morning.

    Nick quit his 16 year "career" as as a District Manager for Journeys shoes in August 2019, and while he worked to scale The Jump Off, he drove uber, sold trash that he found on the side of the road, and picked up as many odd jobs (like building swing sets) as he could.
    Then in late 2019, Nick hit "The Bounce House lottery" (originleadership.com/bounce-h...) and when the pandemic shut everything down in 2020, he sprung into action and took that moment to make The Jump Off what it is today!

    Hey man I love how you knock these big inflatables out by yourself. My best friend is starting up this business this year him and his dad own a plumbing business but I do lawncare and you remind me of myself just a straight hustler man. Thank m solo also I’ve been solo pretty much for 8yrs. I had some employees but no one ever worked out. Hopefully next summer I’ll be getting more help since every one is going back to work. I like your point of paying people good money to have good help. Awsome videos you have another sub bro. Stay safe out here. It’s hot now here in Ga. 🤙🏽

    • @nick_o_glass

    Thanks for bringing us along and showing us what a day looks like as a bounce house business owner ! Appreciate it so much given the fact that I am considering getting into this business. I had a few questions, do you have your clients sign a waiver and release of liability electronically via booking or on the day of the event? And do you also have an insurance for your business, do you recommend a certain company specifically for bounce house businesses? Thank you in advanced !

    • @nick_o_glass
      @nick_o_glass  3 года назад +5

      You are very welcome Shenyen! My booking software, Inflatable Office (rental.software/?ref=nick) does the liability waiver electronically. If you DM me your email on IG @nick_o_glass I can send you a blank contract you can use. And yes insurance is very important to have! There’s a few companies that will offer it, I go through cossioinsurance.com and have been VERY pleased with their customer service!

      Straight through every time no remorse! 😈 Tarp is there to protect against mud not be water tight so the holes are nbd. We rarely put them they the same spot either. New holes every time.
