Business Tips: Upgrade Your Bowling Center On A Budget

by Global Entertainment | Blog

With the holiday season just wrapping we are all trying to save as much money as humanly possible. You may have put revamping your center to the back of your head with worries of cost and overall work, but we here at Global Entertainment have comprised a list of cost efficient ways you can give your center a crisp new look that will guarantee customer satisfaction.

CURB APPEAL

It’s true, you only get one chance to make a first impression. What do your customers see when they pull up to your business? To improve your curb appeal and your customers first impressions on a budget you can repaint/clean your front door, trim, and windows. You can also upgrade your landscaping to create or more welcoming lively environment. If your asphalt parking lot is worn out, a cheaper way to fix it is to resurface it. It will all of the crack and your parking lot will once again be a rich black color.

LIGHTING

How is the lighting in your facility? Update or replace old lighting fixtures in front of your business to ensure your business is well lit at night. Not only will this make your business more visible but it will also create a more secure and safe environment. Make sure all of your lighting fixtures are in proper working order inside of your building. If you have a bigger budget bring in brand new lights. This very cost-efficient upgrade will brighten up guests as soon as they walk in. Even switching old yellow bulbs for new white bulbs will be a drastic positive upgrade to your center.

PAINT

Grab a brush and a new can of paint to give your center that fresh feel it once had. Even repainting the ceiling tiles will go a long way! We recommend painting the tiles black, creating a truly eye popping galactic feel.

GRAPHICS

Completely transform the atmosphere of your center with Global Entertainments Masking Graphics. Masking Graphics are one of, if not, the first things customers see when walking into your center. With our double-sided technique, you are truly getting two new looks for the price of one. We have countless graphics for you to choose from, along with a possibility of creating a brand new graphic specific for your center and your center alone. All graphics are enhanced to glow when under black lights. If your walls are empty and bare, then consider adding artwork to your walls. Global’s wall graphics will dress up large empty wall space and help your center look well decorated and complete.

SCORING SYSTEM/MONITORS

Changing the provider of your scoring system may sound scary and pricey, but it is actually very cost efficient especially when all of your bowlers view the system every time they enjoy your center. If you are content with the system you have now, you can convert the monitors to brand new larger ones and enhance the experience for all guests..

BALL RACK AND HOOD

Chipping Ball Racks and dented Hoods are an absolute eyesore. We offer various styles of Ball Racks and Hoods to ensure your center stands out from the rest.

CARPET

An option many centers seem to overlook is changing out the old and crusty carpet for bright and new carpet. Completely change the cosmic feel of your center with UV sensitive glow carpet.

CLEAN

One of the more obvious upgrades you can do to your center is simply clean it. Something as small as picking up trash guests had left, cleaning the bathrooms by removing graffiti, or even cleaning the bowling balls can make a drastic difference for guests of all ages. Bust out a pressure washer and clean all of the old dirt off the exterior of your center. Add air fresheners to keep your facility smelling fresh for all day long. A clean center is a successful center.
