Video Game Bus – Absentee-Owned, No Marketing, Clean Bookkeeping
Business Description
If you're a buyer who wants something clean, proven, and easy to step into — this is it. This business is fully turnkey, absentee-run, and already generating bookings. All financials are tracked in QuickBooks, and every transaction is processed through the website via credit card — no guesswork, no back-of-napkin logs, and no sketchy bookkeeping. You can verify everything and feel confident knowing exactly what you're getting.
The operation already dominates its market with an exact-match domain name, a top-ranking Google business listing, and a fully customized, tech-equipped video game bus. It’s perfect for a hands-off owner or someone who wants to take it to the next level with basic marketing. A smart ad strategy could tap into the birthday party space — a huge, currently untouched market.
Highlights
No Marketing Needed – Proven Organic DemandWe ran ads in the past but didn't manage them effectively, so we turned them off. Surprisingly, once we stopped advertising, the business performed just as well—if not better—purely from word of mouth. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try ads. If you or someone you know knows how to run them well, you could easily 5X, 10X, or even 20X this business with just a few smart changes. The birthday party rental market is huge, gets tons of monthly searches, and hasn’t even been tapped into yet.
Google Flagship PositionSearch "Video Game Bus Wilmington" and you’ll see this business at the top with a full branded profile. This premium Google position is incredibly hard to earn and locks out most competitors.
Exact-Match DomainIncludes ownership of "VideoGameBusWilmington.com"—a direct match to what customers are already searching.
Custom Built Bus – Tech Ready
Converted school bus with HVAC, built-in seating, full gaming setup
Includes a massive library of top-requested video games
Built-in high-speed modem with multi-network redundancy — works even in rural areas
Safer than trailer units; no towing or complex setup required
Turnkey, Absentee-Friendly Setup
Two part-time school bus drivers operate all bookings
Booking shifts are posted automatically; drivers claim their time slots
Buyer can remain absentee or take over driving to increase margins
Future Bookings Already ScheduledEvents are already on the books for months out. You’ll earn revenue from day one.
License Requirements
We’ve consulted with the DMV, DOT, and local law enforcement. A CDL is not required because:
No passengers or cargo are transported
The bus is parked at each event (like an RV)
No agency could point to a CDL requirement for this use
Our current drivers have CDLs for extra caution, and school bus drivers from local districts are always looking for extra work, making it easy to find qualified help. Buyers should always confirm independently.
Clean, Transparent Financial RecordsAll transactions have been processed through the website using credit cards, and all financials are recorded and maintained in QuickBooks. This is not one of those businesses where the seller kept notes on a napkin or ran half the income under the table. You’ll have full visibility into the numbers, with no guesswork or "what ifs" — making this one of the cleanest, easiest businesses to evaluate and take over.
