Buy your first inventory: a pop-up canopy, folding tables, folding chairs, and a Bluetooth speaker. These are the most-requested items for backyard parties, graduations, and BBQs. Buy quality that lasts.
Price items at 25-40% of their purchase price per rental. A $100 canopy rents for $30-40. A $150 chair set rents for $40-50. Include delivery and pickup in your price for convenience.
Bundle items: "Backyard Party Package: canopy + 4 tables + 20 chairs + speaker = $150/day." Packages sell better than individual items and simplify your logistics.
Create listings for each package and item on Facebook Marketplace. Use great photos (set up the items in a backyard). Also post on Craigslist and local community groups. Free marketing.
Offer a first-event discount to get reviews. Deliver on time, set up if possible, and follow up afterward. A smooth rental experience gets you repeat bookings and referrals.
Every dollar you earn, put half back into new rental items. Add yard games, cotton candy machines, photo booth props. More inventory = more rental options = more revenue per event.
