What can be said is players who have experienced Battlefield Live just rave about it, especially the teen and pre-teen markets. This strong response from the players to date strongly suggests considerable and substantial future growth. Our view is the development will be different than paintball, our emphasis on fun and being inclusive means players who are attracted to Battlefield Live are typically a different profile to paintball. Expect to see Battlefield Live become very common at multi-activity centres and resorts.<br> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium"><b> Why do teenagers like this game so much?</b> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium"> Think video games in real life and you'll have the answer.....</p> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium"> <b><font color="#000000">Other manufacturers are offering individual scoring options. Why does Battlefield Sports not do this?</font></font></b></p> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium"> This is not a good idea. Let us explain, we have spent 5 years plus running our own successful commercial battlefields and we discovered that individual scoring was very bad for repeat business. Here are the key markets that drive your business:</p> <ul class="TextDarkGreySmall"> <li><a href="#boys">Boys birthday parties</a></li> <li><a href="#sports">Sports Teams Break ups</a></li> <li><a href="#corporate">Corporate fun and team building.</a></li> <li><a href="#advanced">Advanced missions for regular players.</a></li> </ul> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium">Lets look at each of these customers in turn.<a name="boys"></a><br> <br> <b> <img border="0" src="images/Gotch_urban.jpg" width="350" height="267" align="right">A. BOYS BIRTHDAY PARTY </b> <br> <br> This is such an important group, there is a boy (or girl) having a birthday every day of the year. So this means year round business. The Birthday boy is very excited and wants to be a hero on his birthday. Our job as entertainers is to make sure this happens. When the boy plays he and his friends imagine how great they have done even though they have probably missed (shooting) everything. They are only kids and they only play once or twice per year. Boys naturally fantasize about how well they have done and will tell fantastic stories when they come off the field. We as staff need to give them lots of positive feedback. The last thing you want is an individual score telling the birthday boy how bad he is. This is an important message to the parents who are very worried that their young boy Johnny will be embarrassed on his birthday. The kids who play with Battlefield Sports equipment ALWAYS go home excited and positive. All of them. Individual scoring cannot guarantee this. If you want to run a successful business make sure you buy a system that doesn't force individual scoring. It just doesn't work. How are we so certain? Answer: Hundreds of thousands of players over five years know what they want. <br> <br> Further, we run large numbers at once for Birthday parties, often 6-8 parties in the same battle at the same time. This means around 80 players at once in the same game. For a scoring system outdoor you need a data download and upload before and after each game, this takes at least 30 seconds per player so that will take 40 minutes to complete. Way too long and therefore impractical.<a name="sports"></a><br> <br> <b>B. SPORTS TEAMS</b><br> <br> Sports team are all about team and team objectives. They have no interest in individual scores. The come to Battlefield Live for a team bonding experience.<a name="corporate"></a><br> <br> <b>C. CORPORATE FUNCTIONS</b><br> <br> Corporate groups are again team focused. It's not about making individual heroes in a corporate culture, it is about working together with everyone contributing to achieving the group objective. <a name="advanced"></a><br> <br> <b>D. ADVANCED PLAYERS </b> <br> <br> Having run more advanced missions in a commercial environment, than anyone else on the planet, we at Battlefield Sports can tell you with 100% certainty that individual scoring just doesn't work for these guys and gals. Advanced missions are multi-phase and each player has a role and that role does not mean shooting all the time. Personally in large games when I play and spend my time organising my troops and gathering intelligence reports, this role often is the decisive difference between the teams, but an individual score for me would be a flat zero. So the individual scoring encourages everyone to play for themselves and always want the shooting parts, rather than other important jobs like recon, guard duties, leadership etc. In many advanced special forces missions, the goal is the avoid contact with the enemy. In games like this it is a failure if a fire fight starts.<br>  </p> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium"> <b> <img border="0" src="images/MissionBriefing_Woods.jpg" width="350" height="186" align="right">Will this work in my area?</b><br> <br> The most important element is the drawing population. We need to know how many people are within 30 minutes drive time of your proposed facility. Alternatively if the existing facility is already high traffic, then Battlefield Live will definitely work well.<br> <br> <b>What's the minimum investment?</b><br> <br> Depends on a range of factors such as existing land and facilities that can be utilised and how large an operation that is planned. For our units it's around 25k. So you need to be well funded. Our guns are not cheap. We build them to last. They are tough, heavy and durable. Sure, you can buy plastic guns cheaper, just don't expect them to last and last like ours. <br> <br> <b>What support does Battlefield Sports offer us if we become a customer?</b><br> <br> Because we have operated our own commercial battlefields for the last 5 years covering indoors, woods, urban and mobile we have a wealth of experience for operators to draw upon. We also offer a comprehensive business guide, this covers not just how to use the gaming guns, but details how a Battlefield Live business should operate. Further services are available and included in your package... Success Conferences, Training Visits, Business Plan Development, Management & Operations Manual, Marketing and PR Materials consultancy, Revenue Projections, Payroll & Schedule advice, Financial Spreadsheets, Demographic Reports, Facility Layout assistance, Arcade Assistance, Management & Operational Systems, Guest/Membership Registration advice, Tech support, business support, marketing materials, web site development, web site traffic and lots more are included. <br> <br> <br> <b>I am running a paintball field at the moment, why should I add this?</b><br> <br> The most important thing to keep in mind is Battlefield Live does not replace or compete with paintball. Most people that are attracted to Battlefield Live are not existing paintball players. Battlefield Live is great at winning the mixed groups where there is considerable diversity of ages, sexes and fitness levels. <br> <br> <b> <font size="2"> <img border="0" src="images/FamilyFun_Woods.jpg" width="350" height="340" align="right"></font></b>Younger players can be attracted to Battlefield Live, in time these people love live combat games so much, it is inevitable that some want to give paintball a go as well. <br> <br> Our observation of groups with a youth culture (typical for fast food and retail outlets) actually want to try a diverse range of activities. This means this month they try go karts, next month they might try rock climbing and then Battlefield Live as well as paintball. To increase the utilization rate of a facility the paintball field wants to win the same group for paintball and Battlefield Live.<br> <br> The different market appeal of Battlefield Live therefore leads to a high utilization of existing paintball field facilities.<br> <br> <br> <b>How long will the guns last?</b><br> <br> Being aluminium and stainless steel, they don't rust. The gun case therefore has no finite life span. We have seen guns in use for 5 years. You should be factoring in your cash flow projections to do a major upgrade every 3 years. A major upgrade typically costs 25% of the original purchase price. <br>  <br> <b>How long will it take to make my investment back?</b><br> <br> A lot depends on the venue and marketing, a high traffic venue like a busy multi-activity facility like a resort etc can have amazing ROI. <font size="2"> </font><br> <br> <b>I see that Battlefield Sports is an Australian company - why has the concept taken off in Australia?</b><br> <br> Mostly because this is where we started. Similar market response rates have been found in other markets. The UK, Canada and USA are strong markets with a fantastic potential for you.<br>  <br> <b>Will my local television station be interested in this as a news story?<br> </b> <br> We have found that Battlefield Live does attract local media attention. Our local battlefield has been featured 4 different televisions shows, all quite high ratings. We have also had consistent attention from radio and newspapers.<br> <br> <b>Why won't this work for us? What can go wrong?</b><br> <br> There are some factors that can really send this business into a spin.</p> <ul> <li> <p class="TextDarkGreySmall">Wrong location - too far away from population. We recommend a drawing population of at least 50,000 people, 100,000 is much better.</p></li> <li> <p class="TextDarkGreySmall">Wrong people - you have to be in this as a professional business, not a player. </p></li> <li> <p class="TextDarkGreySmall">Wrong equipment - if you use cheap plastic guns, there is no WOW factor so vital for the inspiration of players.</p></li> </ul> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium">Bottom line, this is a business like any other business. You need capital, skill, determination, great marketing skills, location, love of the business and other parts of the "perfect storm" the business works all over the world. The question is will it work for you? <br><br> <span class="TextDarkGreyMedium"> <img border="0" src="images/Right_on_Target.jpg" width="350" height="263" align="right"></span><b>What capital is required to open this business?<br> </b><br>Depends on the business model, typically USD25,000 to USD150,000 is required.<br><br><b>How will Battlefield Sports help us to develop our business?</b><br> <br>The business manual is a great start. Our team are always available to provide advice on every stage of your business planning. The key is to use us as a vital business resource.<br><br><b>Why does Battlefield Sports make metal guns? Why is it good to have heavier guns. Your competitors all say that light is best?</b><br><br>Main reason, is the WOW! factor. You can't expect people to play if all you do is provide a plastic gun they could have purchased at Walmart such as the LTTO gear. Metal feels real, not like a plastic toy. In this fantasy creation business, the props used are vital to suspend disbelief, our gaming guns do just that. Again, we have hundreds of thousands of players all over the world it's something that ALL of the other manufacturers put together don't have. They just don't have the experience we do. Kids love a heavier and more realistic gun not something that feels "gay" ( that's teen talk for not cool) their language, not ours... The next reason is metal is durable and maintainable. We can panel beat metal plates back into place, not possible with resin or plastic, it will simply crack.<br><br><b>What's the usual delivery time?</b><br> <br>6-8 weeks<br> <br><b> <img border="0" src="images/Commando_Kids350.jpg" width="350" height="366" align="right">Why is this a great lifestyle business?</b><br> <br>Giving so many people such a good time face to face is really special. This is a lot of fun to run. Its also a very healthy choice, you are in the outdoors, often in the woods and getting fit at the same time, what could be better? <br> <br><b>Do you guys offer tech support?</b><br> <br>The most important part of support of course is to make the guns so robust, so water resistant and easy to use people need very little support.<br>Of course we do provide ongoing tech support and we are contactable 24x7 for telephone. Email response is never more than 24 hours.<br> <br><b>I'd like to add this to our entertainment options at our location. How popular will it be?</b><br> <br>From our experience, especially if there are lots of pre-teens and teens there, it will be the most popular attraction.<br> <br><b>Do kids come back and play over and over again?</b><br> <br>That is our experience, especially for birthday parties.<br> <br><b>Is it true that Battlefield Live is taking market share from XBOX, <span lang="en-us">Ps2, </span>Sony and other entertainment games?</b><br> <br>We complement these products. People love their computer games and then want to try a live experience with lots of other people in a big battle, that's where we (you) come in. There is no doubt we reduce the time people spend playing computer games because more of their leisure time is spent outdoors playing the "live" version.<br> <br><b>Is this a fad?</b><br><br>It does not appear to have the business genetics of a fad, what we have seen is strong but steady growth in our retail tickets sales for the last 5 years. It appears there is a genuine interest in gaming generally<br><br><b>Is this a trend? How long will it last?<br> </b> <br>The megatrends towards gaming is clear and strong. How long it will keep growing is hard for anyone to predict.<a name="equipment"></a></p> <h2> <font size="5" color="#000000"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Tahoma, Arial"> EQUIPMENT FAQ</span></font></h2> <font face="Verdana" color="#000000" size="2"> <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Tahoma, Arial"> <b> <p class="TextDarkGreyMedium"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">What sort of warranty do you offer?</span></b><br> We have a 24 months return to base warranty for all of our guns, in other words we will replace or repair any defective products without charge so long as the damage does not arise from certain circumstances such as abuse or emersion (these are listed in detail in the sales agreement).  The warranty does not cover infrared transmitters, switches or buttons because they are considered to be consumables.
