4 Ways Mini Bowling Is Transforming Businesses of All Kinds
With some researchers dating the bowling roots back to 3200 BC in ancient Egypt, bowling is one of the oldest games around. The advancement of machinery and technology has made bowling a must-have for many entertainment businesses. However, newer versions of bowling are making the sport accessible to more types of companies.
Mini bowling or micro bowling is a version of bowling that shrinks every aspect of the game. Lanes, pins, balls and everything else is shrunk down to offer the fun and excitement of bowling without needing to take up the amount of space as a regulation bowling lane.
On average, for a typical bowling lane, you will need anywhere from 90 to 100 feet. It is the length from the seating area to the pin deck. For the width of a traditional two-lane install, you’ll need between 11 and 12 feet. Mini bowling can decrease the length and width you need by more than half, making it ideal for non-traditional bowling experiences.
Here are a few reasons why many businesses are looking to mini-bowling to differentiate their business.
Offering Customers Unique Experiences
Mini Bowling is a unique offering for all kinds of businesses. Whether the brewery or a larger sized bar, a hotel, mini-bowling takes the overall experience of your establishment to a new level. Mini-bowling offers a fun, one-of-a-kind experience to your business without needing to remodel your space entirely.
Differentiating from the Competition
The odds are that not many of your competitors offer mini-bowling to their patrons for the types of businesses that aren’t traditionally associated with bowling (bars, restaurants, breweries). The reason is that many aren’t even aware that it’s an option. Therefore, installing a mini-bowling experience at your establishment will be a significant differentiator that your customers will remember.
New Revenue Stream
In some cases, you might consider offering bowling as an accessible experience for your guests or patrons to use as a method to attract customers. On the other hand, there are certainly ways to monetize the experience. For example, some of our partners treat mini bowling as a source of new revenue that has a direct financial impact and keeps people at their location longer. After all, the longer someone is at your establishment, the better odds of them spending money with you in other ways (food, drink).
Employee Perk
Today’s modern corporate setting is much different than it once was. Major tech companies have transformed the traditional workspace. As a result, large corporate offices utilize their spaces in new ways, from the layout of desks to the on-site amenities and stress relievers offered to employees. Mini bowling makes a great addition and employee perk for your office. Partly great for morale and a tool for attracting talent, mini bowling is an excellent option for your corporate space.
Conclusion
The sport of bowling isn’t limited to the traditional alley or large-scale bowling centre. Mini bowling and custom installations are bringing bowling to more people in more business settings. Here are just a few examples of the types of businesses that might want to consider mini bowling for their establishment:
- Bars & Restaurants
- Breweries
- Hotels
- Large Corporate Offices
- Athletic Clubs
- Arcades & Entertainment Venues
- Event Spaces
The reality is there could be a potential case for many types of businesses to consider mini bowling for their location. If you have questions or want to learn more, we’d be happy to discuss how to bring mini-bowling to your business.
