Miniature Golf Course Business Plan
The Business
Sammy’s Family Entertainment Center features a natural-looking miniature golf course that acts as an anchor for additional attractions. Family Entertainment is a very profitable industry and has grown rapidly in the past few years. This is due in part to a national trend of returning to family values. The minigolf course, video arcade climbing wall and food service are the primary profit centers.
Marketing
There are 150,000 people living within a 15-mile radius of the Firefly County site. One of the interesting facts about the miniature golf business is the breadth of the customer base. While families with children may act as an anchor, seniors, teens, and corporate customers add significant income. You can find many promotions that keep the business profitable through the entire season. Our marketing plan draws inspiration from the best in the industry. However, we will add some new elements as we begin the business. Mulligan Bogey Leisure Builders’ marketing plan includes completion of the golf course. This plan incorporates input from over 200 golf course owners. It shows the most successful marketing campaigns being implemented across the nation.
Michelle and John Putteer are successful in managing small businesses, staff management, and financial administration. The miniature golf course operates with only one person during the day and two or three people during peak hours. The low personnel requirement makes management easy and keeps employee costs at a minimum.
Financial
Miniature golf courses are low in inventory and operate at a low cost, allowing owners to make early profits. You can expect to be financially successful in the first year with conservatively calculated sales projections.
Invest Objectives
Sammy’s will open with an initial investment made by John and Michelle Putteer. A long-term loan is also available. One local commercial bank has expressed an interest in the idea. John has also received interest from local investors in the chance to invest in it.
