Starting with chimney pots!

There is a formula - Varies depending on...
•   Type of attraction
•   Length of stay
•   Size of attraction


But also your catchment area
•   Include overnight tourists
•   And those who live within an hours drivetime

          Maximum visitor numbers = 150,000
          However....this is based on a 4 hour visit
             1 hour visit = 60,000 visitors

The biggest difference
about indoor play
Huge levels of repeat business
Higher levels of party business

Need to keep in touch
•   Want to obtain email addresses and mobile numbers
•   Encourage sign up to your social media pages


Also want to keep them coming back
•   If you can, hold some attractions back to add in y2 and y3
•   Want to give impression continually investing/continually new

Getting the marketing right...
•   Make it look professional
    – Create a professional logo
    – Ensure the entrance is as welcoming as possible
    – Build a modern fun website
        • But not too zany.
        • And ensure it is mobile friendly
