FAQ’s

How much money can I make?

At the rate of $350 per party ($30 per person) the average dealer makes roughly $6,000 – $7,000 before more Gellyballs are needed.

 What are the specs on the Gellyball Pistols?

Commercial Grade
Weight: 1 lb.
Capacity: 750 GellyBalls
Battery life: 3000 shots<
Rate of fire: 15 GellyBalls per second
FPS: 120
Range: Up to 100′

 How do the Gellyballs get bigger?

The Gellyballs start out SUPER small, see video below. Once you soak them in water for 3 hours they get to full size with a long shelf life.

 

Do they hurt like regular paintballs or reballs?

NO! They shoot at only 120 FPS which is 60% slower than a paintball gun. Plus the ball is softer and filled with water, so it’s fun to get hit. With normal paintball when someone gets hit you hear “OUCH”. When someone gets hit with Gellyball you hear people laugh : ).

 Will Gellyball replace paintball?

NO WAY! Paintball is the ultimate extreme sport. Gellyball is for fun and a few laughs. So not only do you get a younger demographic you get the parents as well that want to play.

It’s a great question, what will happen to paintball fields with COVID , and is it still a good idea to start a paintball field or business?

The answer is simple, YES!!!!  And here is why.

COVID isn’t going to last forever. Sure there are many opinions on what is really going on, regardless, “this too shall pass.” And when ( not if) but when it passes, people will be lining up like never before to play. Regardless of why the economy is like.

Here is proof, when the crash hit in 2009/2010,  paintball fields were booming with new business. Not just fields but all forms of entertainment, like Disneyland. Disney even raised their park ticket prices! It’s true, during the worst depression the county had known in almost 100 years, Disney raises their park prices, why? Because of the demand.

I must mention that tournament paintball took a huge hit during the crash and has not recovered, but tournament style paintball is less than 10% of the market.

The bottom line is this, no matter what the economy is doing, good times or bad times, people want to escape and play paintball. Now compound this by people being locked up in their homes with nothing to do for way too long, mark my words paintball is going to hit it’s biggest growth spurt.

The question is, are you going to take advantage of it?

Think about it, commercial real estate is at an all time low. Now is the time to lease to own a building or field,  the prices and lease flexibility will never be more in your favor that it is now! Take advantage of it.

Growing up as a surfer I learned very quickly, you have to start paddling early in order to catch a wave. Otherwise it just passes you by.

Take Action Now and you will be so glad you did.

“The ultimate life is nothing more than a series of ultimate days. Today’s the day!” –Jim Stovall

Do you have a God-given dream inside you for something more? Are you sick and tired of putting it off?

Today is the day to Take Action on your dream of owning a Paintball or Laser Tag Entertainment Business! Keith Johnstone, the founder of Improv theater, says, “In life, most of us are highly skilled at suppressing action.”

In the ancient Hebrew scriptures there is story about a man named Joshua, in the story God calls Joshua to be of “good courage.” One translation I found  from Hebrew to English is:  “Good courage” means the willingness to take action!

WOW! What a statement. It’s seems our natural tendency is to stop and think about it, then think about it some more, and then wait for conditions to be favorable. News flash: Favorable conditions never come. It’s time to take action now.

God has given you a dream for a reason, and it’s not so you can just keep thinking about it. It’s so you can bring it to pass! Be of good courage — today is the day! Take action, and the world is yours.

Your one step closer to the Grand Opening of your Paintball or Laser Tag entertainment business.

By now many of you have heard the Crisis News Networks and Negative News Networks jumping all over this “paintball wars” story.  It wasn’t that long ago when another rapper brought paintball to the streets. His name was Eminem, and this time it was from the blockbuster movie 8 Mile. In the film, Eminem’s character does some drive by vandalism with a paintball gun.  The simple truth is, there is no such thing as negative press. The large majority of people that will see this “paintball wars” story, still have some common sense inside them. They understand that the place to play paintball is at a paintball field.

This is why as a paintball field owner or future paintball field owner you should be excited. If you own a paintball field, use this story in your marketing, explain why more parents need bring their kids to your field so they can enjoy paintball the right way,  and be less likely to do what they see on tv. You can even launch a bring a friend free promotion, simple things like this get people off the couch and playing paintball at your field.

For those that want to start a paintball business, this story will get the cities and counties on your side. This shows them that they need to approve your field to avoid this happening in their community. Similar to how Skate Parks got the thumbs up from cities and counties all over the U.S. in the last decade.

Now let’s take a deeper dive into what’s really going on. These “paintball wars” are an effect, not a cause. The cause is what needs to be treated, that will eliminate the effect. As you can imagine, the young men involved in these paintball wars have a non-existent or a strained relationship with their fathers.  The cause is lack of mentorship, “it’s much easier to empower young boys than to repair broken men!” – JuVan Langford.  This why I partner with a non-profit called The MENtour, they are empowering young boys in undeserved communities in Los Angeles and expanding world wide. Be a part of the solution! Join hands with The MENtour, start your own initiative or partner with another great organization. The world needs you to step up.

Even if you have not started your own paintball field or paintball business yet, this webinar is a must watch.

Small things can make all the difference when running or starting a successful paintball business.

People don’t really want to play paintball “Per se”, they want to escape their problems, that is why they are coming to you. The better experience you give them the more fun they have, and the more money you make.

People have a great experience and they can not wait to come back, plus they tell all their friends. The best way to start your customers great experience is with cool signs that are themed to your paintball park/entertainment complex. For example the picture in this blog,  I took it myself when walking through the parking lot of a unique restaurant called Mid-evil Times. This sign was the first thing I noticed and I loved it. I laughed out loud and pointed it out to my son. Even before I set foot inside their building or was engaged by any of their staff, I was already having a great experience. Use this strategy at your paintball park and watch what happens.

Years ago full color signs and banners used to be very expensive, now you can get these items a very low prices. Take advantage of this and create a fun and memorable experience for you customers and watch your profits soar!

Recently our Flag Ship Paintball Franchise had the opportunity to work with Activision for their new “Call of Duty” release here in Los Angeles. For those that are big fans of the game, we re-created a paintball field of  Nuke Town, filled with remote controlled smoke bombs, powder paint bombs, and many other “surprises” for the players( checkout our moneypaintball.org facebook page for more pics). Needless to say, it was really cool.

Some may recall the paintball video games that Activison made in 2008 & 2009. Are they planning a new game? – Not to my knowledge, but I do have some good news for those looking to start a paintball field, or those that just got their fields going.

When people first dream about starting a paintball field, or even when putting together a basic business plan, many forget to include corporate events. Countless times I have had excited field owners call to order up supplies because they landed a huge corporate gig. For a large corporation, spending $50,000 to $250,000 for a day or weekend event is small potatoes in their world. Companies prefer to rent out your whole facility, so they can insure a great experience for their employees, clients or prospective new clients.

One challenge I see is that field owners will actually turn the business away; it really happens. They get scared that they don’t have enough equipment, or their mindset is too small to see themselves succeeding at that level. One of the most expensive things you can own is a poor mindset. Here is a quick solution if you are ever worried about not having enough equipment or picnic tables, etc.  For corporations, you always get a non-refundable 50% deposit from them. Some corporations will cancel at the last minute and give you a huge payday, it has happened and will continue to happen so don’t be surprised. Now take the 50% deposit and buy all the gear, picnic tables, easy-ups, and any thing else you may need. The best part is, you get to keep all this equipment and add it to your fleet! You still make money and the corporation has a great experience, which leads them to book another group with you. More fun and more money for your business.

For those that resonate with having a proper mindset, you understand the need to get around like-minded entrepreneurs. How would you like to enjoy a tax deductible business trip/vacation to sunny San Diego on February 2, 2017? On this trip, you will massively expand your success mindset and get around some like-minded entrepreneurs.  We are even giving away free rounds of golf on a PGA course as an early bird special. Enjoy a guided tour and Q&A at our 33 acre Flag Ship Paintball Park, from there enjoy a free round of golf, then join the winners for the next two days at InspiretoWinLive.com

You read it correctly, if your looking to start a paintball field, laser tag business or any entertainment business, we have got you covered with 100% financing. Yes, our rates start at 7%. However if you filed bankruptcy last week or your home just got foreclosed on, your rate will be higher.

Yes, we can finance you even with a recent BK or if you just lost your home. We have many investors of all shapes and sizes to get just about any deal done. We are here to make your dream of owning a successful business a reality.

Let’s make sure we are all on the same page before we go any further. If you walk into a bank and ask for a car loan, they will put you in a comfy chair, give you something to drink and say YES. Your interest rate will be based on your credit score but just about anyone will finance a car, at a really low rate. Simply because the car is easy to repossess.  Same with a home loan, very low interest rate because the bank can take the home back easily. On the flip side,  85% of small business fail in the first 2 to 3 years, so the same bank that says yes to a car and yes to a house loan will show you the door when you ask for a business loan, or simply string you along for 3 to 4 months before they say no.

Question for you, if someone approached you asking to invest money and they said their deal has a 85% chance of failure in the first 2 to 3 years, would you invest?

Now that we have covered that, we have numerous sources of banks and investors that want to put money into paintball businesses, laser tag and entertainment business. Even if you have the worst credit known to man, we have groups that will help. Our rates start at 7% and go up from there based on your situation and everyone is different. So give us a call or e-mail and see what we can do for you: 310-750-6218  or finance@EvanMoney.com

If you seriously looking to start a paintball field or you already have, this blog is a must read. Below is an email I recently got from a current paintball field owner, telling his journey on the entrepreneur roller coaster. Enjoy the ride.

Evan you might not know me, even though I get your emails, watch you on a few YouTube videos and podcasts, but I’d like to say “Thank You” for helping me.

I didn’t shoot this email to you to ask for money, but just to encourage others with my paintball story who might be going through what I went through and to keep their head up even when things were going south….and I’ve learned that in all thing “Give Thanks”, in the good and the bad times give thanks.

I started in 2009 and I had a nice outdoor tactical field.
The property that I found I was paying rent for and at that time I had a great job.
I marketed my business just as any field operator should via commercial, Facebook, Newspaper, Radio, E-Mails and things were going good. I even had a friend who works in the largest hotel near my field and she is head of guest activities and she was very interested in trying to shuttle people back and forth, but when she visited my field, she thought it was a indoor facility.

She told me because of the business being on the outside and the Tactical field that I had which had cars, vans, tires etc, that it would of been more of a liability….so after she said that, I knew what my next step was, which was to try to get my paintball business indoor. 2015 came and I upgraded my field to a speedball field which was the best investment I made last year because I said, if one day comes where I have to move off the property, at least the cars and obstacles would be off the property and I would only have to remove my 40ft container. And to mention the fact that speedball was making way more money than tactical paintball.

In March I got a psp style paintball field ,it was awesome and what happen next, was a serious blow….I lost my job, things became extremely slow and when summer time came the majority of the kids went to camp or summer school or vacation and then towards the end of August (back to school rush) we might of had 12 people come to play. September 1st I had to close down being behind on rent and staff left to look for new jobs and it was knife to the chest.

So after I closed down, I went mobile and the strangest thing happened…I started hosting private events with my paintball bunkers, and then I had an idea…why don’t I save up some $ from these events to buy my property and put up a 50×120 building which can not only be used for paintball, but can be rented out as well. Imagine having 150-300 Tourist visiting my business on a daily basis from 1 hotel ….and that’s not the other hotels on board.

So now I am on that track to secure my paintball property and put up my building and I am very close to obtaining that. My faith is in God and I feel as if this is his plan for me, when 1 door closes another one opens.

My friend Darren Hardy wrote a good book titled The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster, check it out if you want a helpful read on the proper mindset on how to start a paintball field or any business.
