Increased Visitor Frequency by 3x

DEFY Extreme Air Sports 360° Brand Development

Challenge

Align 7 brands post M&A

  • Consolidate multiple trampoline park brands with very different audiences into a new brand.
  • Corporate culture that de-emphasized marketing and prioritized short-term results.
  • Misaligned expectation on rollout plan for franchise vs owned parks.
  • No market-segmentation.

Goal

Attract teens and moms of younger kids and increase frequency so it is not just an annual treat.

Insights

  • Moms experience in the park produced a lot of friction and resulted in low repeat visit.
  • 100% of guest interviews said they were going out to eat after visiting.
  • Include socks in purchase price, don’t make jumpers buy socks as an add-on.
  • Employee engagement varied wildly at each brand.
  • Check-in and wait time disconnected from brand experience (need to upgrade technology).
  • Teens and kids viewed rubber wrist bands as gear for old people (Live Strong) vs. paper being for festivals and events.

Strategy

  • Employ 5E framework to build brand (entice, enter, engage, experience, extend) to increase frequency of visits.
  • Create mom friendly waiting areas, with amenities including WiFi, coffee, wine, etc.
  • Make food available for purchase onsite.
  • Establish brand architecture to create daylight between tribes of jumpers.

Go-to-Market Strategy:

Sky Zone = Nike Mom

DEFY = Tattoo Mom

Tagline:

Extreme Air Sports

Results

  • 4x Increase in average ticket spend.
  • 309% Growth.
