Are you looking for Ian innovative way to earn an income, raise money for a fundraiser, or attract new customers to your business? Inflatable slides are often seen at community festivals, circuses, county fairs, and amusement parks because they hold a nearly unlimited potential for earning income.

Fundraising with Inflatable Slides

We’ve all seen those fundraisers where some poor soul gets hauled off to “jail” ad your donations are needed to set him free. The inflatable side can be used in this manner by selecting a well-liked or prominent member of your community and forcing them to sit at the top of the slide.

The community enjoys sliding past the prisoner until the cows come home or until the donation goal is reached. This provides a terrific photo opportunity once the donation goal is reached and the happy prison is finally allowed the enjoyment of sliding to the bottom.

Similar to the Relay for Life walks, an inflatable slide can be used to raise money for a good cause while providing healthy and enjoyable physical activity for participants. Participants gather sponsors who donate either a set amount of money for every hour of sliding, or a flat rate fee for participating in the event.

Volunteers climb to the top and slide to the bottom repeatedly for as long as they can. You can hold record-breaking contests and provide small prizes to encourage volunteer participation.

Generating Income with Inflatable Slides

Inflatable slides naturally attract children of all ages, and even a few fully-grown adults. You can capitalize on this attraction by charging patron to use the slide.

You may choose to run special promotions where customers earn the privilege of sliding with a local celebrity, or invite the local newspaper to come and take snapshots for publication in the next day’s paper. Publicity is vital to create a buzz, and placing your inflatable in a high-traffic area yields the best results.

Many business owners spend hours wracking their brains for ideas that will draw in new customers. Why not use inflatable slides to advertise your business? You can quickly set up fun slides in your parking lot or community area with a banner on the side advertising your business. Then, simple provide refreshments, balloons for the kids, and sale flyers promoting your business.

Be sure to offer special discounts for customers who visit the slides then purchase goods or services from your store. Providing a community service, in addition to the entertainment, also shows that you are concerned about your customers. Sponsor a health fair, provide tutoring for underprivileged children, or collect canned food for the local homeless shelter or food bank.

Inflatable slides are natural moneymakers and easily draw large crowds with the proper placement and promotion. The income potential with inflatable slides is only limited by your imagination, good weather, and the amount of daylight hours in a day.
