There are a lot of tools out there for small business start-ups.
Some can be bamboozling, right? Don’t worry, that’s normal, sadly.
So we created a simple-to-use straightforward online calculator.
This way, you know exactly what's what, even if you have never run a small business in the past.
Or "How profitable is laser tag?"
Long story, short: We build laser tag equipment that enables you to run fantastic events that create thrilling memories - memories that your players will not forget anytime soon.
But no business survives and thrives without making money. We are here to help you make an impact and make the income you deserve.
To see how much money you can make, use our laser tag business revenue calculator app.
Exactly how much cash you can generate depends on the number of laser taggers (gaming guns) you have in your arsenal, how often you used them, & your ticket price. Let's run some numbers...
Here's how to use our free revenue calculator tool: Slide each variable to different numbers Because this is a commercial laser tag business calculator the minimum number of laser tag guns in your arsenal is set at 10. (The maximum for this calculator tool is 300, although you could have more than that as the system supports around 8,000 gamers at once.)
Adjust your utilization rate Adjust how long your business is trading - per gameplay minute.
Consider how many hours you plan to be open, and multiply by 60 to get the number of minutes Change the laser tag price for a ticket - calculated via amount per play minute The revenue (potential weekly turnover or in other words "Cash In The Door") will automatically be calculated.
For example, say you have 50 laser taggers in your armory. And say they are all used half of the time, this gives you a 50% utilization rate. While it would be fabulous to be running at 100% capacity the entire time you are open, this is unlikely.
Of course, the more hours per week you are at 100% capacity the more money you will make! In this example, say customers have booked and paid for 8 hours of games per week (480 minutes). Now your business may be open longer than 8 hours. If you are a mobile operator then you will need to factor in drive time for transporting the laser tag equipment, as well as set-up and pack-down time.
To keep it simple, in this example, we assume you get paid one dollar (or one pound or one euro) per minute of play. You can easily change these numbers by adjusting the slider or tapping in the price field and changing the amount/s. This will change the result. This little app is designed to give you an estimate of your top-line turnover figure. This revenue calculator is not a profit calculator. It does not factor in expenses and overheads such as tax, rent, or insurance (or other expenses).
