Attractions - an integral part of all resort cities in the world. In addition, they are present in almost all parks, are present at fairs, etc. Among the relative new products are, for example, the “Expendable Log” attraction, in which it is almost impossible to win a prize for a person with average physical abilities. The idea to open just such a small business will be discussed.
What is “The Expendable Log”?
A simple, at first glance, task - to hold a log attached to a crossbar for three minutes - in fact, it becomes incredibly difficult. Why? And all to the point of banality is simple. After all, this is the secret of the "The Expandable Log" attraction: the stick or the crossbar that you want to hold rotates. And of rare strength or endurance, a person is able to hold out on an attraction for more than even one minute, not to mention three. About 2% of participants will be able to do this. And thus, if you calculate the ticket price and the prize amount rationally, you can make quite good money.
By the way, "The Expendable Log" is convenient for transportation. It fits in the boot of any average sedan.
We calculate investments
Well, invest here, of course, have to, but at a minimum. The cost of this street attraction will amount to several thousand rubles. If you calculate the average price of the "unit", then 5-7 thousand. And you can recapture this money, with a successful choice of location, in just 1-2 days.
You may also need the services of a promoter or a barker who will attract people if you yourself are not confident in your abilities. Such a person will have to pay. You can agree on this with a schoolchild or student who is only too happy to earn some small amount during the holidays. In any case, the assertion that advertising is the engine of commerce is 100% suitable here.
Will have to invest in the rental of those 2-3 square meters, which will take the attraction "The Expendable Log". Some parks may not rent, and even more so the streets. The main thing is that there should be no problems with the police.
What is the best place to choose?
Naturally, you need to choose a place where a huge number of people live. It is advisable that they purposefully rest, but this is not always true. For example, walkable places along sidewalks, where other business women and business people earn their living, are also suitable. After all, many people will want to be tempted to receive a tidy sum as a gift, just holding a log for several minutes. Especially love to try their hand and compete among themselves more powerful representatives of humanity - men.
But the best places will still be parks and beaches. This business idea with minimal investments for Crimea is especially good. This is because people there often walk in a state of "tipsy". And for such a person, the idea of participating in such an attraction may seem brilliant. Well, the poor coordination of such vacationing citizens is only to our advantage.
Note: The drunk horizontal bar / bike / ladder rides are essentially similar in nature. They can also be included in the list of your entertainment services. And in this case, you can earn many times more.
How much can you earn?
Earnings on the ride "The Expandable Log" may vary depending on the cost of tickets, and depending on the amount of our proposed winnings. It is also important to consider the features of the region.
In Russia, on average, you can ask from 50 to 150 rubles for the right to “compete” with the attraction “The Expendable Log”. And as a gain in this case, you can offer from 500 to 1,500 rubles, respectively. That is 10 times more than the ticket itself costs. Making simple calculations in the mind, we conclude that if there is a clientele, then the entrepreneur is always in the black.
But if the region is tourist and people come here to spend money, then the ticket price can be raised up to 300 rubles. But then the gain, respectively, will have to increase. And its amount, according to logic, will be 3,000 rubles.
Despite the costs, you can earn about 5,000 rubles a day on The Expendable Log. This, frankly, is a good amount for any region of Russia and for almost every resident. Unless, of course, you are not the head of Gazprom. In general, the amount of monthly earnings here is up to 200 thousand rubles. Well, at least 100 thousand can be released in just 30 days. This means that for the season about 400 thousand rubles, if you start working in May and finish in September. And this, we repeat, on the "minimum".
Seasonality of business
A likely minus for entrepreneurs seems to be the seasonality of this business. Unfortunately, the attraction “The Expandable Log” is in demand only in the warm season. During the summer holidays. Well, in late spring, as well as in early autumn, you can count on some income from this venture. So you have to additionally look for some other type of income during the heating season. Well, or live all year on what was earned in the warm season. It is important in this matter to correctly choose a place to work, and then the income will be provided.
