Renting BIG Kites

This is a Daily Money Makers idea for the entrepreneur looking to make some money for a smaller investment.

Big kites are fun to play with, and would make a great date idea. Since huge kites can be expensive, they are rare to see flying. If you could buy a few of these kites and rent them out, you would make a huge profit. A lot of these big kites take two people to hold them, so it would also be a great group activity.

Since kite prices vary, it's hard to say how much you make from this business. However, you can expect it to do well because big kites are hard to find and you'll have tons of curious customers.

Kid Friendly Romantic Resturaunt

This is a Daily Money Makers idea for an entrepreneur looking to invest in a profitable and fun business.

Parents want to go on romantic dates, but often can't find a trustworthy babysitter. So why not offer these parents a romantic resturaunt experience with babysitting. The kids will be separated from sight and sound of the parents, so the parents don't have to keep an eye on them. If they are feeling anxious however, their kids are only a room away so they can go and check on them.

The kids will want to go too, because the kid section of the resturaunt will be full of fun bounce houses, entertainment, and activities. You can consider slides, climbing walls, ball pits, and fun food such as pizza, hot dogs, chicken nuggests, etc. When the parents want to go on a date, the kids will all want to go to your resturaunt, because it will be enjoyable for both the parents and kids.

Minature Golf Fun Center for a Small Town

This is a money way for an entrepreneur who wants a big return for a medium investment.

The idea for this business model is to provide ways for people in small towns to have fun. What you would do is find a small town, and rent a building. Then fill this building with a few arcade games, and a miniature golf course.

Then advertise around town before it opens, and have a huge grand opening celebration. This grand opening will determine how many customers you will get later. Be sure to make it extravigent, and to be extremely nice to your customers.

You can make a party room, snack bar, roller skating rink, and possibly even outdoor ice skating for the winter time. All the people in town will be talking about how much fun they had, and soon the word will spread to other towns close by.

Daytime Resturaunt with a Romantic Evening Feeling

This is an money way for an entrepreneur looking to make a lot of cash from a smaller investment.

The idea for this is to create a romantic evening-style resturaunt during lunch hours. Many people don't have the time during the night to take their date to a nice resturaunt. If you were to provide a resturaunt that gives the feeling of a romantic evening, you would make a huge amount of profit.

You would need to first rent out a building. Make sure the building is nice, and has everything needed for a resturaunt. You would then block out the windows so no light shines through. Then, get nice white string lights (such as white christmas lights) and string them back and forth overhead. This will give your customers a fun romantic outdoor atmosphere during lunch hour. The only lights you will need are those white christmas lights. You also will need to black-out the entrance or block it off so light doesn't shine through while people enter. A long hallway would be preferred.

Then you're going to need to hire employees to make the food, and a good chef (if you can't cook well). You can pick your own menu, but try to make the dishes as classy as possible.

Pocket Bike Track

This is an idea for an entrepreneur who wants to build a successful and fun business.

You can find a go-cart track anywhere, but pocket bike tracks are especially rare. If you were to set up a pocket bike track in a great location such as a mall parking lot or other shopping center, you could make amazing profits, and have a lot of fun.

What You Need

• 4-8   R32 Interceptor 110cc bikes (as low as $549 each at USA pocket bikes). Some other great models are the X-18, the X-19, and the X-22. Pocket bikes sit between 2.5ft - 3 ft tall, so they're not uncomfortable to ride but are actually quite fun.  
• Chain-link fence panels and possibly hay bales to make the pocket bike track. If your riders wreck, they'll slide into the hay.
• Pads, helmets, and other gear for protection.
• Liability waiver form.
• Checker Flags
• Posters and Decorations
• Business Supplies and filing cabinets for insurance waivers.
• Renting Space
• You might want to check into buying insurance for your pocket bike track.
• $10 per race per person, winner moves to the next race. That's a $70 profit per race.

If you were to set up your pocket bike track from Friday-Saturday, you would be bringing in $7000 a weekend or $28,000 a month for your pocket bike track

Themed Parties (for teens)

Projected Profit: $300-$700/month (5 parties per month)

This is for the older teen looking to make some extra money. The startup cost for this idea would be around $50-$150. 

Parents are always looking for fun entertainment for their children. Most would pay top dollar to see the excitement in their children's eyes. That's where you come in! You can make good money hosting themed dress up parties for children at their own house, or at a public park.

What You Need

• At least 10-15 costumes that fit one theme. You can buy these at the store for $5-$10 each, or else make them at home. Some great costumes would be animals, prince/princess, pirates, ghouls and goblins, Barbies, Transformers, superheroes, etc.
• Transportation to and from the customer's house or destination.
• Gift Bags which consists of a couple of small items in each bag.
• A well-made costume for yourself.
• A Good Attitude

You would spend a small amount of money before each party on the gift bags. The total amount spent should be $10-$15. When you arrive at the house, you will have a schedule that you have called and discussed with the parents. Some good filler activities would be teaching a themed song/dance, picture taking, fun games, movie clips, etc. The extent of the party should last about an hour.

A good charge for each party would be $75-$150, to cover materials charges and your pay. You can either pocket the money, or buy costumes for more themed parties.

Making Money with 'Whatever you Like'

Projected Profit: $800 per scooter (depends on what you're selling)

This is for anybody looking to get a little extra cash.

For instance buy an item you like, and research and find the very best deal for it. Buy online because that's where you're gonna find the best price. Then once you buy it, sell it in the paper for a higher price. After doing this 5-6 times, you would probably have enough money to buy 3-4 at a time, exponentially increasing your profit from there.

For example, let's say you wanted to sell scooters. You can find great deals if you go online. It would only cost you $500-$600 per scooter. You can sell those scooters locally for $1200 to $1300. 

So you buy a scooter online for $500, and sell it locally for $1300. You can use this $1300 to buy 2 scooters. You can pocket the extra $300 and sell the two scooters for $2600. Then you can buy 4 more scooters, and pocket $600 dollars. You're increasing your income exponentially by following this model.

Old Fashion Root Beer Float Stand

Projected Profit: $4000-$6000 (minus money spent on ingredients)

This is recommended for the beginning entrepreneur.

This is a carnival/fair/fundrasing event that can make quite a bit of money. You would need an easy-up canopy, deep freezer, 5 gallon drink cooler, old wooden barrel to place over cooler so it looks old-fashioned, a couple of signs that say something along the lines of "old fashion root beer floats", and 24 oz cups.

Before the carnival starts, prepare for customers by putting ice cream in the cups with a lid so that you only have to put rootbeer in the cups. Home-made rootbeer is recommended (recipe:http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Homemade-Root-Beer/Detail.aspx) 

The price for an easy-up canopy is usually $180, a deep freezer is about $300, and eating utinsils and cups depend on the local charge. You can find a good priced 5 gallon drink cooler for $20. Ingredients including ice cream and homemade rootbeer would depend upon local vendors.

You can sell the 24 oz. root beer float for $4-$6 each. If you sold 1000 floats, you would get $4000-$6000 dollars per event minus how much you spent on ingredients.

Scooter Rental Business

Projected Profit: $900 per scooter

This is an idea for the beginning entrepreneur.

Scooters are a fun way to strike up conversation on a blind date, or if a group of people just want to go have a blast around town. If the scooter is 49cc or under, the driver will not need a motorcycle endorsement (but they will need a driver's license). 

Since scooters are dirt cheap, by renting them out you will pay back your investment and then some within weeks. So it doesn't cost too much, start with only 2 scooters. Rent them out at an hourly rate of $10 an hour, with a minimum of 5 hours per scooter. If the customer would like to take it for 24 hours and return it the next morning, they can pay an additional $10  ($60 in total.) 

If you want, you can offer the driver insurance for an additional rate ($10-$20). For instance, if you had 2 scooters rented out 15 days of the month with the $60 charge, that would bring in $1,800 a month for 2 scooters.

If your business becomes more successful, you can rent out protection gear such as helmets, googles, gloves, jackets, pads, etc. 

For advertisements, put stickers on the scooters. If there is a local university, go the the news board and advertise. You will find that most of your customers will be of college age.
