An extraordinary opportunity to acquire the premier, entirely unique mobile escape room business operating across Southern California. Established as an incredibly lucrative, ultra-low-overhead side hustle, this business requires no expensive brick-and-mortar commercial lease, carries minimal fixed monthly expenses, and relies on high-ticket, premium event bookings rather than an exhausting consumer volume grind.

The business specializes in premium corporate team-building events, private VIP parties, and high-visibility brand activations throughout Orange County and Los Angeles, with massive untapped demand frequently pushing into the Inland Empire and San Diego. We are entirely unique in our regional footprint, enjoying zero direct mobile competitors and offering an unparalleled entertainment asset.

The Operational & Financial Model:
Operations are remarkably lean and designed for effortless management. Expenses are strictly limited to fuel, basic vehicle maintenance, and a single part-time event staff member. The business currently utilizes a trusted operator who handles both driving the vehicle and executing the events for $25/hour, making this a highly passive revenue source for an investor or a seamless side hustle for a new owner.

While run strictly as a lean, owner-operated venture without traditional corporate P&Ls, the financial proof of concept is clear, exceptional, and fully backed by clean digital transaction history:

The Premium Corporate Pivot: Operations were strategically optimized to focus strictly on corporate and high-ticket B2B bookings. This pivot yielded $174,365 in gross revenue across just 153 total event bookings, proving a phenomenal net profit margin per event.

Because the business has been resting on a temporary hiatus for the last 2–3 years, the asset package is intentionally priced at an aggressive, accessible liquidation value of $80,000 for a swift cash exit. This allows a motivated buyer to step into immediate equity, avoid the $50k+ startup development costs, and realistically recoup their entire capital investment within the first 12 months of operations.

What is Included in the Sale (Turnkey Asset Package):

The Mobile Unit: A clean-title, 30-foot 1991 Chevrolet Blue Bird Bus. It features a manual transmission, a completely replaced clutch and transmission system, and requires no CDL to drive.

The Game Infrastructure: A fully custom, heavy-duty interior buildout of the proprietary "Grand Theft Galaxy" escape game. The game runs seamlessly on an isolated 12V battery system complete with immersive custom lighting and integrated digital sound effects.

Comprehensive Brand IP: Full ownership of The Escape Bus brand, including the live, functional website (TheEscapeBus.com), premium graphic assets, logos, professional photography portfolio, highly rated Yelp page, verified Google Business profile, and a transferable filed trademark.

Massive Customer Database: A clean list of 1,732 past customers, including active, warm incoming leads who have requested booking dates while the business has been paused.

Power & Operations Gear: Two Honda 2000 generators and all associated mobile power components.

B2B Referral Pipeline: An existing, active referral partnership with Escape Room Era in Lake Forest to ensure immediate local lead generation.

Trained Staff: Immediate access to our experienced operational staff member (Daniel Miranda), who knows the mechanical, driving, and game systems inside and out and is willing to transition to new ownership.

Transition Support: To guarantee a flawless handoff of the game mechanics, electronics, and booking systems, the current owner will provide 6 months of comprehensive operational and technical support.
