There is something really exciting about running a forest battle with
100 or 200 or more players at once. There is so much energy the battle
gathers its own momentum.
The business is primarily Saturday and Sunday, however mid-week corporate
bookings and school holiday events can be common. Imagine generating
your core income by coordinating battles.
A forest deployment at the company level is for battles from 100+ people at
once. Really big battles of 100 versus 100 are truly exciting, think "Brave
Heart" battle scene.
One of the key benefits from both the players and business operator’s
point of view is the ability of Battlefield LIVE
to scale easily to company
size engagements to truly simulate a battle rather than a skirmish level
action as per paintball and airsoft. The operator benefits because while the
number of players that can be catered for is comparatively very high, the
number of staff required is low.
Battlefield LIVE™
in the forest best suits facilities that have regular
visitors, such as summer camps and theme parks. Battlefield LIVE™
is an
attractive addition to these venues. If the forest battlefield does not have
regular visitors, Battlefield Sports recommend using the “Combined Arms”
business model.
Unlike the inflatable game which has a high throughput, in the forest,
people come and play for a few hours. For public sessions, a price range of
$30 per person for 3 x 30 minute missions is typical. For private functions,
a price range of $50 to $65 per person is typical.
The primary sources of income are:
- Bucks & Hens events
- Birthday parties
- Corporate “team building” functions
- Sports team break ups
- Teenage and young adult gamers, these become regular players.
The
earning capacity when fully operational is 3 sessions per day with 200 guns
@ $7,000 per session = $21,000 per day. The vast majority of trade is on
weekends however considerable variations exist between venues.
Typically a company level package would be around $333,000 with a
recommended additional investment of $30,000 to $50,000 needed for your
startup marketing
budget.
