@@joeladkins7083 yes but I don’t. I use the foam powder from party machines so I have to stir and still put the pump in therefore filling to the top for foam purposes can backfire as some water will leak out. I definitely fill up over 8/10th of the tote for sure. The tote itself doesn’t cave in nor fold with that amount of water. I’ve seen a lot of our peers use the barrels, I personally never have but just feel the totes are easier to move around and give a more professional look. I could be wrong lol but that’s my take. Thanks for checking out my video!!! I wish your business well!!!

@@FoamGuy thanks for the reply. I use the powder from Partymachines as well. I started with 55 gallon barrels because they were about $10 each from a local guy. I like your transporting idea though, probably gonna try the totes today for a toddlers bday I’m doing. Appreciate your time, hope your business is booming!

@@joeladkins7083 my pleasure!! those will work, too. I would think your foam would be “thicker” than with the 70 gallon tote which is cool but you likely get less time. I’m sure we could do the math but it’s too early for all that lol but I doubt it’s something drastic like 20 minutes less. The best part about owning your business is you can do what you want lol I’ll pick up a 55 gallon tote and compare the two in a video so we can get some numbers and science for the different experiences. cheers to you bro!!! I wish you many many bookings 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

@@FoamGuy thanks man! Absolutely gotta do what works! I usually get about 50 minutes with my 1/3 hp pump into a super e foam machine. I use the smaller one for kids parties. I made a 1hp large cannon for bigger events, that usually gets about 30 minutes or so depending how long I run it.

@@joeladkins7083 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 hell yea!!! All of that is fire!!!! Keep pushing bro!!!

It came with the foam machine. “Foam Daddy” is the manufacture and they supply it with the machine.

Thanks!!!!

The foam cannon. The pit is good and popular too but the cannon is the franchise player.

and disclaimer; I often suggest both as both will rent and the foam pit manufacturer has a deal that comes with a bunch of foam. The cannon is the more popular product tho.

I hate to hear about you losing your job but sometimes we get pushed in the right direction. I really hope this is that for you 💯💯💯💯 There’s definitely a lot of money to be made in this hustle 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 I hope my videos help you with this process. Let me know if you have any questions and I got you!!!!

A tote. Very specifically a 70 gallon storage bin. They sell them at Home Depot. Thanks for checking out my video dude. Get into the business!!!

@@FoamGuy I appreciate it! Is it a 1/4 hp pump or one of the small blue ones?

@@makoman112 the all in one foam pit has a 1hp blower hooked up to the actual pit and then a water pump in to the bin. I don’t recall the specs for the water pump so I went to their site and noticed they have a sale for the all in one foam pit and 6 packs of foam for $500. That’s a super deal bro!!!

Thank you for checking out my video!! I use a 70 gallon storage bin and 1 pack lasts close to an hour of straight shooting. The cannon isn’t used for a consecutive hour tho. You go for a few minutes then stop and let them play in what’s built up then you shoot again and so forth and so forth. The foam pit is consistent foam tho. Pros and cons really. You have to “man” the cannon while the pit just starts up then goes.

The video is less than an hour of foam. I would estimate that wall took maybe 30 minutes to make but with kids playing in it. Without kids, that wall is built quick.

@@FoamGuy thanks so much for the reply and knowledge. I have a 1hp diy that I use that’s like the foam daddy large cannon. It’s amazing output for dumping foam, I have a few parties lined up where I may do the cannon. I have 2 55 gal barrels and a 77 gal tote for backup

@@joeladkins7083 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 that’s beautiful!!!! hell yea dude you got that!!! I would say use the 77 gallon tote and everything else is ready to go!!! Thanks for checking out my video dude. Let me know if you have any questions or curveballs that pop up and I’ll get back to you asap. The phone stays in my pocket. Best of luck!!!

@@FoamGuy will do man. No pressure but I hope to see more content when you can. Cool to see others in the foam industry getting successful

Thank you and absolutely 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 I’m putting together a video for the way I shoot in pools but basically I shoot directly across and make a “bridge” looking pile of foam that can be swam through. You definitely don’t want to cover a majority nor the entire pool. That could be horrific. I also put barriers on the side I’m shooting at so people can’t walk over there. The foam could cover the exterior of the pool and cause somebody to fall in without realizing they’re even close.

I got mine from magic jump

Magicjump.com

Thanks!!! I bought it from Hero Kiddos directly. If you google them their site will pop up. This slide rented every weekend as soon as I bought it. A super great addition especially for smaller yards that struggle with getting slides

Thank you so much for your reply. I found and subscribed to your channel for foam content but I love seeing this too. I have some foam party stuff coming up, glad to see it working out for you too!

@@joeladkins7083 thank you!!! I love to hear that!!! I definitely “prefer” foam over inflatables but the two really go hand in hand and having both makes for a stronger and more successful empire. Congrats on your bookings and best of luck!!!

It depends where you're located but it definitely takes a hit compared to the summer time. I'm in California so it slows down November - January but in other states it completely shuts down during those months. If you're talking about the foam daddy cannon, it's about twice the cost and it shoots around 5 more feet and moves up/down more freely. I highly recommend this cannon over that one unless you're starting off with over $10k. The differences dont justify twice the cost but the ability to move up/down easier is dope. Thanks for checking out my video!!!

I love to hear it!!! You got this bro 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 best of luck brother 💯💯💯💯💯

Question tho. Isn't soap bad for lawns? Does it need to be treated after in any way?

@@Luquin88 no, not at all but you have to use what’s made for foam. Some of these other dudes try to save a buck and use wild things like dish soap from dollar stores and that will impact the grass especially if having a longer party but if you buy your foam powder or gel from foam daddy or party machines then you won’t have any problem. Same with skin and eyes. Use the right stuff and you won’t have any problems.

How’s it going bro?! Have you started the hustle yet?!

My bad for the delayed response!! I absolutely prefer the large foam cannon over the stacker. You can get two foam cannons for the cost of 1 stacker. Each 70 gallon tote is a little short of 1 hour of nonstop foam. Depending on the crowd and a few other details, you don’t always shoot non stop tho.

True legend 🐐

Thanks! And thanks for checking out my video 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

Thanks for checking out the video. In this industry that's usually the actual usable space and I'll be honest, I just somewhat accept that usual assumption. Ill hit up Party Machines to confirm. Yes, they have same hook/tie downs as bounce houses. I have a video on that too, I'll forward it over to you. I'm making a video as we speak on insurance. I'll send it over to you once done. Thanks again for checking out my page and video 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

I can't DM nor tag you. Let me know if this link works. If not it's in my shorts lol you know what I mean bro lmaaaaaaao ua-cam.com/users/shorts8wUR_wk5wGM?feature=share

Did you ever post a video on insurance for this type of business? I can't seem to find it. Thanks!

Thank you!!! And thank you for checking out my video. I do it "full time" but I also rent jumpers, water slides, tables and chairs and theater style big screens. I run it completely solo and projecting gross for the year around 70k. I put quotations around full time because it's not a 40 hour type hustle. The majority of the action is Friday - Monday with Monday being dedicated to cleaning everything. The trick is getting those weekday bookings and once those come in, your entire life changes bro!! My current goal is employees next spring and at that point the math will be nice but they might be needed sooner. For example, I have 4 foam parties this weekend but could have had 2 more if not for time conflicts which would be fixed with employees. I didnt have that issue in June tho so there's evidence of successful scaling in process 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 do it bro!!!

Also worth noting is I only buy equipment that one man can handle. I don't have any of those 20+ foot slides for example. If those become a variable, which they can with employees, that yearly sky rockets also. Pros and cons. I do every job by myself but outside of foam, the most expensive rental by itself is $250 for an all day water slide.

Invite me to one lol i need to get in this business

@@CHUKSTER619 Vamos!! You in SD? I see the 619

Yes. Powder is super easy to store and it mixes on the spot. Also, it's one pack per tote. No measuring or anything. Foam Daddy gel needs to be prepared beforehand then transported to the site and then mixed with the water. I see people in FB groups debate the amount of mixture for gel all the time. I just dump 1 pack on site then stir with a broom stick and I'm done 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Also, I use a 70 gallon tote with 1 pack of foam powder and get an hour of foam.

@@FoamGuy I appreciate the reply! I’m looking at the foam pit you recommend in another video. Maybe grabbing some string lights and the rest of the equipment you said to. Kids are back in school so I fear not getting much traction

@dpascal95 my pleasure 💯💯💯 do it bro!!! Best of luck with the hustle. Right now my August and September are busy but October doesn't have anything on the books yet which is understandable. Buying now or in the next few weeks will give you plenty of time to get those practice runs in before next year so you can kill it then. Let me know if you have any questions and I got you!!! Thanks for checking out my channel 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

The 80s were rough on all of us lmaaaaaao thanks for checking out my videos!!! I may not know you personally but this entire hustle is very very doable!!! I also feel that getting in now puts us ahead of the pack because it's not as popular right now as bounce houses but it will be very soon!!! Best of luck with your hustle and thanks again for checking out my video!!!

@@FoamGuy Im already working in childcare so my contacts are plentiful and you’re so right it’s refreshing for once to get into a niche market before it’s over saturated. I was going to also add other services to make a complete children’s party entertainment service and up charge more! You don’t understand the value of this video, keep up the good work, & let’s get this 🍞 and best of luck to you too 🫶🏾

@GloopGloopglop thank you for the super kind words!!! That means everything!!! Upselling is absolutely key and with your plugs you'll take off quick!!! Best of luck, you got that 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Thank you and my pleasure!!! I absolutely recommend doing it. I constantly experience people telling me "I had no idea what to expect" or "I didn't know it was foam like this" and both tell me this is still new to consumers so we're ahead of the wave by doing it now. Thanks again for the kind words!!!

I love it!!! Thanks for checking out my video 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

Thanks!!! It's one of my franchise players. Its made of bomb materials so it is a little heavier than some others its size. In my area 11x11 and 13x13 rent often so I love all of them!!!

Thanks!!! I hope this info helps!!!

Thank you!!! I hope this helps!!!

Thank you!!! It makes everything sooo much easier!!! Thanks for commenting. Have a good one dude!!!
