Camps for Children business.
Business Overview
Every year millions of parents shuffle their children off to various types of camps for a myriad of reasons. This is an age-old and gigantic industry, but always has room for new and fresh ideas. One of my favorite camps in this industry is a weeklong children's acting camp. Every child wants to be a star and ham it up for friends and family. Of course, the side benefit to this type of training and education is that it builds confidence and socialization skills. Child acting camps generally take place in the summer over the course of a week, and are based on a day camp platform. You can also run this camp during different times of the year. The camps can take place on nights and weekends spread out over longer periods of time. Try to make your camp all-inclusive, which in the case of an acting camp would include a child's acting resume, head shot, and on-air tape. All of these items, with the addition of a completion certificate, can be presented to the students and parents at the end of the camp during the graduation ceremonies. Marketing will require a savvy campaign including brochures, free information seminars, and possibly even a noted professional spokesperson in the profession of the camp you are hosting.
