LASERTRON Assists Developers with Laser Tag Business Plans

What are the advantages of having LASERTRON assist me with the development of my business plan?

Our laser tag center wasn't successful in the very beginning. We didn't have any real world experience in operating a laser tag center, and there wasn't any information available to help guide us. It took us years of trial and error to figure out the basics.

We continue to spend a significant portion of our time refining the things that do work. We also continue to spend a significant percentage of our time testing new ideas under real world conditions. Unfortunately most new ideas fail to succeed, but the ones that produce positive results help ensure our success as well as that of our clients.

"This is an opportunity to see what's "behind the curtain" of a Lasertron attraction. Jim, Ann, Jason, and the rest of the Lasertron team thoroughly communicate the realities of the business in an interactive session. Chris and I have leveraged what we learned in this session in talking to bankers and investors - it certainly has given us more credibility in discussing a business that many are hearing about for the first time. If you are serious about this business you need to attend this session."
Hugh Curran & Chris Edmonds, future operators

Today our LASERTRON laser tag center is the longest running and one of the most successful laser tag centers in North America at over 18 years and counting.

Our years of experience are available to all our existing clients at our LASERTRON Professional Laser Tag Operators' Conference entitled "Laser Tag - Do It Right The First Time". We hold this conference four times per year in January, April/May, July, and October. Prospective clients are welcome to attend.
