Welcome back š«”
This weekās Hyper Growth Blueprint covers:
š±How I discovered a $80m business running on 97% profit margins
š”What we can learn from itā¦
š¤ Mega-Prompt of the Week
Letās goā¦ š
Iām currently enjoying my final few days in Florida.
Living by the spirit of āWhen in Rome...ā
ā¦visiting Disney World has been a big part of this trip.
Enjoying
In between scoffing Mickey waffles and racing to be the first on the most popular rides each morningā¦
ā¦something really stood out to me.
Everyday I would see groups of families on VIP tours of Disney.
The guides wear a distinctive tartan patterned shirt and escort them around the parks, going behind the scenes and loading them straight onto the rides.
This use to be a very rare sighting, but now they are everywhere.
FOMO kicked inā¦ and so a couple days ago had a VIP tour of our own.
We had the lovely Lyssa be our guide, and I quizzed her on the numbers behind the VIP toursā¦
ā¦and what I discovered BLEW my mind š
Check this outā¦
A Disney VIP tour costs $450 per hour.
You have to do a minimum of 7 hours.
Making the cheapest tour $3,150.
Throughout the year they average 70 tours per day.
Disney is open 365 days per year.
Which means they do 25,550 tours per year.
At $3,150 per tourā¦
ā¦thatās $80,482,500 in additional revenue from these tours!
Nearly a 9-figure business.
But itās doesnāt stop thereā¦
They only have 74 full staff.
They pay them $17 per hour salary.
Which on a 40-hour work week equates to $2720 per month, or $32,640 per year.
This means there fixed cost each year to pay 74 guides is $2,415,360.
Now the guides operate within all the existing theme parks, so thereās no real additional costs.
Which means itās an $80m per year business with $2.5m of costsā¦
ā¦meaning itās running 97% gross margins and spitting off $77m of profit every year!!!!
Thatās a sexy business if I have ever seen one.
Soā¦ what can learn from this?
Clearly we are not Disney and do not have our own theme parks to leverageā¦
Howeverā¦ itās makes you think what hidden opportunities are available to us in our businesses right now that we just havenāt thought of yet?
I believe that most businesses reading this will be sat on a database of leads with hundreds of thousands, if not millions of additional revenue just waiting for them.
Or marketing funnels that are working okayā¦ but are hindered by one or two constraintsā¦ that if found and tweaked would snip their CPAs in half & double their profitability overnight.
You just have to look for, and find the opportunities.
Which is by far my favourite thing about what we do at BOTTERS. š .
So my question to you this week - what opportunities are hidden in your business?
Hit reply and let me knowā¦
Thanks,
