Great set-up, you all are doing a great job, especially since you are just starting in this cutthroat business(all that you said about the business is so true). keep up the good work. Here's a thought - why don't you start taking orders to build things for others - I would definitely buy?!

Hello. This is wonderful! I’ve been watching your videos for a while and I really like your work! I have a question for you regarding pricing: do you charge a rental fee for the props (like grass wall and candy cart)? Do you include it in your pricing? Or do you just consider as a wear n tear cost over time..? As a new business owner I struggle with this 🤷🏻‍♀️

@MakerDecor

2 жыл бұрын

Hi, thank you and yes pricing is the most difficult and was something we struggled with at the beginning. But we did eventually learn, less work and making a profit is better than a lot of busy work and barely making anything. We changed our pricing so much and all the time really. At first I even forgot to charge delivery and setup lol. But you learn by doing most of the time. And yes charge a rental fee for props for sure. Some people only rented the props because they would do the balloons themselves or they would pay somebody else to do the balloons because we were too expensive, lol? Which at that time we weren't at all and should of charged more. Charge for each prop, backdrop, sign, setup deliver, balloons, etc. Some times we even did packages were we would put stuff together and all they would do was change the balloons really and that was our budget friendly option. But then we just went back to individual as this was best for us. Don't under value what you offer and if you are being booked a lot then time to raise those prices! Hope this helps.

Hey is this the same backdrop that you linked on your links? The 8ft by 10ft? Can you use it for several sizes? Thanks.

@MakerDecor

Жыл бұрын

Hi, yes but this one is I believe 5ft x 7ft. I believe I had to buy two to make the 8ft x 10 ft grass backdrop. But I don't really recommend that large anymore as it can be a hassle. The smaller one works great, we just add the balloons more to the side and it appears bigger. But 8ft x 8ft is the biggest I would go with now. But it may take more than one box. Its been a while but I believe the grass squares are 20 inches by 20 inches. So you would have to do the math to figure the size that best fits your needs. Thanks

Your videos are so informative where are you located what state? Just wanted to understand how anyone would just ask for 120dollars? Gas prices are up and time is not free? Wow! Also as far as getting names to place on backdrops do you have the templates for those as well? Thank you for your time.

I can tell you right off the bat though, the top if not most recognized quality balloons will be from Qualatex in most situations but can vary. I will have a lot more info when I create the video.

Hi, fishing string. Its clear and thin so its invisible about 3 ft back.

How do you handle the balloon popping on site?

@MakerDecor

2 жыл бұрын

Hi, thanks for watching. If you are meaning pickup and popping balloons. It depends when we go back to pickup the balloons some times we would pop them on site. But really I would just throw them in the trailer and pop them later. We liked to just drop off and pickup as quick as possible. If you are meaning your balloons popped on site before the event or during the event. Two things make sure you are using the right quality balloons such as qualatex, tufftex, etc. Second is avoid placing in direct sunlight if possible. The sun will always be an enemy of balloons. If we know it will be hot or in the open we recommend to the client to keep out of sun as much as possible and if they want it in the sun mention you can not guarantee the balloons will not start to pop and again try to find a shaded spot. But if they understand the risk and still want it then that is up to you and them. Thank you, hopefully this was helpful.

Hi, the candy cart was custom made about a year ago. It wasn't that difficult, but there would be some things I would change if I were to build it again. But I just finished building another candy cart which should be more easily setup for events. The video should be up in a day or two. Thank you so much for watching.
