Hire fountains Make money from hiring fountains
Let us start at the beginning, what is your idea of a fountain? Is it picture A or is it picture B?
Most people would say " picture A" Well although it is a fountain, it is actually a fountain for a pond, (even by "pond standards" it's big) There are lots of suppliers of "pond fountains", Exclusive Fountains specialise in "Commercial fountains" and large fountain "projects" Picture B is what we would call a fountain Most people assume that to build a fountain you buy "a pump" and attach "a nozzle" and put it in water and that is all there is to it. But you have to know how high and wide the jet is to be, in order to select the right pump, you also need to know the pool size, to find out, is the requested nozzle pattern big enough or too big. There are a whole host of similar questions that you need to know in order to make the correct decisions, It is the decisions that determine will the fountain work or will it soak every body But back to YOU making money from fountains. We suggest that you start a fountain hire company. Why not hire fountains for wedding receptions, barmiztvers or other special events. (We know of a company that does do this) and we will promote you. You can not really "sell fountains on" unless you have the knowledge of what will or more to the point, will not work together. We have had enquiries from established companies, they seem to be of the opinion making money from fountains is easy and simple, if it were that easy, more people would be doing it. Good quality, good looking fountains never come cheap, but they will last for years. Some examples of "perceived costs" ___________________________ Take "Mr or Mrs Average" for example. They have just had a garden make over , and forgot about a fountain or water feature (Yes, there is a difference) they usually want to spend around £100 and they want lights too. Why install a tiny pool and fountain if it will look out of place? (Not to mention the budget is far too small, we are a fountain company, not a pond company) ___________________________ We had an enquiry from some one who wanted 100 nozzles for "his project" The budget = £800, We had to assume the enquirer had just made up the figure of £800 without any thought, Simple maths tells you he thought he could pay £8 per nozzle. It soon became apparent to the enquirer that £8 per nozzle was too little, realising his error, he gave up. ___________________________ An E.U. based company wanted to "sell fountains on" We suggested they start at the "low end" of the market and "work their way up". They sent us pictures taken from the internet of various big fountains, asking "How much to duplicate this" We told them, "This will be expensive, why not start at the "low end" of the market?", but despite this, they sent in several more similar pictures. It is not our fault they chose to ignore our advice. How do you expect to run unless you learn to walk first? They gave up. ___________________________ We had an enquiry from a company who are "In the water industry" and they claimed "We know a bit about fountains" and they wanted to "buy some stuff and rig it up" (Their words, not ours) it soon became apparent they knew nothing about fountains and of how fountains work, they too soon gave up. ___________________________ In general We tell you how it really is, what you do next is your choice. Often its the fact people really have no idea of what is involved, that makes them give up. There really is more to fountains than it appears, but we are willing to help you all the way. If you really do want to make money with fountains why not start a fountain hire company? We only know of 3 companies that hire water fountains (not the drinking type) none of them have a musical fountain like we supply, why not be the first? unlike some "musical" fountains available ours have multiple channels not just 2,3 or 4 channels, more information about musical fountains can be found on our other website, please click here VIDEO CLIP Or why not start by hiring out static fountains or our colour changing jumping jets (more information about these is on our other website click me), We will do our best to help you all the way. We here at Exclusive Fountains are willing to help you all the way. There is a whole market out there who would like a hire fountain for special events, weddings etc, We know one company that charges £2,000 / day. We can not do it because of our other commitments. (The fountains do not drive and then unload themselves) We even have a page waiting for your company, its here So if you want to make money from fountains, it is possible but think long and hard about it, then contact us, we are willing and able to help you. But please only enquire if you are very serious about it, it is not a "Five minute wonder" and there really is more to it than just a pump and nozzle.
