We are introducing new a new price structure for 2013!
One of the biggest issues facing the balloon and face painting industry is that we rarely have enough time to produce our best work. Everyone waiting in a line for balloons or face painting wants the coolest, biggest, neatest stuff — and we usually have to tell them “Sorry, I just don’t have enough time to build that/paint that for you,” or “if I do that for you everyone else will want one, too”
This issue is the result of several factors. First, the paying customer wants to get the most quantity for the buck. Next, there are usually 12-20 kids invited to each event – hence, 3-5 minutes can be spent on each balloon sculpture or face paint. The one hour constraint is often self-imposed, but there are venues where we work that dictate this factor. And finally, we as entertainers want your business, and if we tell you we can only handle about 6-8 kids per hour, you will probably look elsewhere.
So, we are constantly learning cool new balloon concepts, and awesome new face painting designs, and we are usually just itching to build /paint them at our next event! But, if it is a typical party, we will arrive to find the 14 kids we thought we would be entertaining has turned into 22 or so kids (and some of the adults want something, too!), we sigh and start building our standard (still cooler than most anyone else in town can produce) designs – fast and cute. Most everyone is happy, except for the few “Sorry, I don’t have enough time” cases. And off we go.
Our new Pricing Guides offer 3 packages to choose from.
The “Cool” package is our standard, 15 kids per hour, everyone gets something pretty cool to take home deal. The Birthday Child get the coolest face painting or the coolest balloon sculpture.
Our “Wow!” package is designed for 20 kids, and gives the artist 2 hours to work. This package lets the artist do some really detailed balloon art or face painting. Birthday child again gets the most awesome balloon creation or face painting design.This level also includes a balloon column OR balloon centerpiece in colors that complement your event decor. (The balloon decoration piece will be delivered at the same time the artist shows up.)
The “Awesome!!” package is just that – 3 hours, 25 kids, and each one of them gets the most awesome balloon creation or face painting designs we know how to create. The Birthday Kid gets an awesome balloon sculpture AND the most amazing face painting design. At this level you also get a very nice balloon column AND a cool balloon centerpiece in event colors. (The balloon decoration pieces will be delivered at the same time the artist shows up.)
So, for the “let’s get as many people through the line as possible” people, we recommend the “Cool” package. For the “we have an longer event, and would like some nicer creations for our guests,” the “Wow!” package might be for you. And for the “we want the absolute best for our guests” — the “Awesome!!” package is the one for you.
