@3:00 my family is Mexican/ live in az so we get bouncy houses all the time for birthday parties but the way I think about it is get a bouncy with a slide and a detachable pool so you can always get it out durning the cold(house without the pool) and hot season(house with or without pool plus charge extra couple bucks for the pool

[@nick_o_glass]

You got it man!!

[@Zacharyimpellicceiri]

Hey, quick question. I’m starting a bouncy house business, do you think it’s ok to do a full clean down at the customers house or do you recommend doing it where I live ? When your at there house and the party is over it’s already blown up.

[@nick_o_glass]

Your call. We do both.

[@yolosolonorthwest6282]

@@nick_o_glass do you think customers mind it if you clean it at their place before wrapping it up?

[@nick_o_glass]

@@yolosolonorthwest6282 nope they don’t!

SEO is also important!

Hey there. I bought a used bounce house, and it was deflated and we had a rain storm. I was able to dump the water off of it, but when I inflated it, I noticed it looks almost every seem inside and out has air bubbles blowing out along the seams, which is noticeable because of the left over water. Is this normal or did I buy a bounce house that is about to come apart? Thanx

[@nick_o_glass]

Normal. It’s flooded inside. Dry it out by leaving it blown up and open ring the vents 1/3rd the way. Leave it up for 8+ hours

I just got confirmation on my LLC, waiting on some equipment to come in and wrapping up building my booking website. I wouldn't mind coming on and asking some questions.

[@nick_o_glass]

DM me on Instagram @nick_o_glass let’s set it up!

Hey nick, i bought my first bounce house.. do i need insurance and a contract ? Do i need a lawyer with the paper work

[@nick_o_glass]

Yes, yes, yes, yes. Congrats!!

[@lukefernandez1037]

Hey Nick, do you have to get permits from cities and counties for where you are to set up the units? If so how does that affect the biz? Thanks!

[@nick_o_glass]

Nope!

[@lukefernandez1037]

@@nick_o_glass really?! Awesome. Apparently they may be required in my area. Which I see being such a hassle it would make it not worth it monetarily. And for turn around

[@nick_o_glass]

@@lukefernandez1037 likely that no one will abide by it. I mean who tf is going to enforce that?

[@charlesphillips4095]

Hey Nick. Sounds like you think IO is worth it even if you are super small with only 3 or 4 units? I’m looking at doing this but purely as a side gig.

[@nick_o_glass]

111% worth it. One of my FEW “regrets” is that I didn’t get a site from jump. The list of why is too long to type so trust me!

[@k-w-2666]

can anyone point me to a good waiver for customers to sign?

Hey Nick I'm Julius in Uganda East Africa would love to start the business but my problem is capital and how to get the bouncy houses here in Africa. Whats the least amount I can start with?

[@nick_o_glass]

I’m not framiliar with the Uganda market but I know an operator there so it’s doable! For out of USA check Alibaba but be careful!

Hey nick I’ve been thinking about starting a bouncy house company in northwest Oregon. My main concern is the weather Oregon has a wet climate. Is it worth starting the bouncy house business when it’s only nice from the middle of may to September.

[@nick_o_glass]

How many bounce house companies are around you?

[@randalllundy6605]

Hey Nick what's a good insurance company for our bounce houses

[@nick_o_glass]

Cossio!

[@themicahandrew]

Hey Nick question if your business names is promoting your character side of the business would you make another business for your bounce houses?

[@nick_o_glass]

Good question! My gut says either is fine actually, if you can build the inflatable business from the clientele that you have I think that would be better but realistically you’ll want to check with insurance and your CPA first! You may need to separate

[@juliegrza9128]

Hey Nick I have a question. So we opened up one of our units from ninja jump after over a week after the rental (bad weather prevented from doing it any time before) and as we cleaned we noticed the vinyl had tons of stains from confetti dye. I’ve looked all over the internet and can’t find a solution for removing/cleaning the stains off the inflatable. Has this ever happened to you or do you have a possible solution suggestion? Thanks a ton!

[@nick_o_glass]

Oh that’s a huge bummer!!! If you go over to my silly string video and browse they the comments there are some great tips in there. There’s a random air freshener from Home Depot that takes off silly string (weird I know) that may work! If not there’s 10 other hacks people mention.

Hey Nick I hav a question I am starting my bounce house business this year and I want to know do you have a proposal example letter that I can take to day cares or schools. Or any ideas on how to market to schools, churches etc? Thank You.

[@nick_o_glass]

I don’t have that no. You can just cold call them or email them! I don’t have a script though.
