How to Start a Photo Booth Business and Setting Yourself Up for Success | Salsa Photo Booth

[@ownyourmomentco]

One additional important thing to have when starting is business insurance! Some insurance companies you can research are Hiscox, State Farm, and RV Nuccio. There are others, just do your research and make sure you'll be covered! Many event venues require insurance coverage before you can be on their property, so it's definitely an important thing to have.

Great to hear!

[@chantelleshelton1645]

Thank you so much for all this great information, things you don’t think about but necessary. I would love to hear about Brand Identity , color, establishing my name on social media. I haven’t started yet, but just gathering as much information as I can. 💗

[@ownyourmomentco]

Great suggestion! Thank you!

[@CookingWithMariBel]

Super informative! I’m thinking about getting into this business. I’m in my researching stages as of now & I’m taking notes! Thank you for sharing your journey with us 💕

[@ownyourmomentco]

Yay!! Congrats!!

Hi, thank you so much for the valuable information! Do you recommend to trademark your name first, and follow up with an auttorney after to create the llc?

[@ownyourmomentco]

I’d say trademark comes later. It can take 6 months plus for it to get approved and you definitely don’t want to wait for that. Do your research, Set up your business, website, etc and then you’ll have that as proof to submit for the trademark application

thank you so much for your reply! ​@@ownyourmomentco

3 questions…1 Do you need a hot spot if I have an iPad thru a service provider? 2 do you recommend different iPads with different service providers? 3 still trying to decide on wether to go with the Salsa or with one of Andrew Photo Booth 101 which would you recommend? I’m leaning towards the drop off Photo Booth approach as my business model. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated thanks. love your content! you are the reason I am getting into this business 🙂

[@ownyourmomentco]

Thank you for your kind words! If you have cellular and the event venue has wifi then it’s probably not necessary. It’s one of those things that I have as a backup so I can provide my clients the best service possible. And not necessarily, I have an iPad that I purchased from Verizon and Att and I wouldn’t say one is better than the other. I can’t say which I recommend more but I would think that if your goal is to be primarily a drop off booth then Drew’s might be best as his might be more affordable to replace should things get damaged while in the customer’s possession. The only experience I have is with PBSCO, and I’m a huge fan of their customer service, but again their product is about 2-3x the price of Drew’s. Hope that helps!

[@tlema81]

It does and thank you. Makes sense to go with cheaper option but I really like the look of salsa lol. Might just get one of each and use one as a drop off and the other my Daughter can be the attendant 🤔

[@ownyourmomentco]

Win win!!

Thank you!!!

Very helpful video! Can you talk about how to come up with the pricing?

[@ownyourmomentco]

So pricing is going to be dependent on the research that you do for your area. Google photo booths near me, see who is popping up, go to their websites and see what they offer and for how much. Decide if what you’re offering is going to provide more or about the same as them and decide on your pricing that way. And don’t be afraid to adjust as you go along. I’ve adjusted mine many times!

[@chelseagalvez8672]

do I need an operating system agreement document?

[@ownyourmomentco]

Having a contract is a very important part of running a Photo Booth business! I’ll link the one I use: ownyourmoment.co/shop/ols/products/photo-booth-rental-services-contract
