Backyard birthday parties

Started with a single 13×13 bounce house and a Honda Pilot. Used yard signs at every drop-off, hit 8 bookings/month by month 4, and reinvested every dollar into a second unit.

"I was about to spend $8,000 on the wrong equipment. The buyer's guide saved me $3,000 and got me into a unit that actually books."
