Top Small Business Ideas - Choose Your Own Adventure Tour
I remember speaking with a person that was on one of my first adventure tours through the Southwest which took place almost 15 years ago.
Back then, I was bringing people from Europe and taking them on 2-3 week adventures through California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah.
When I first started, I really was not sure where to take them.
Therefore, there were a lot of options, many changes and spontaneous challenges.
A number of years later I not only had a very specific route, but a brand new van with DVD player and rear air conditioning to say the least.
It was a major step up from the first van which was an old 8-passenger vehicle and to turn the air conditioner on you had to roll down the window.
To my surprise, one of my clients who had taken the new tour and compared it to the old tour stated that he missed the old tours spontaneous choices and unique challenges.
Odd to consider, but when you think about it, there is something special about surprise.
Therefore, here is a business idea that can combine the best of both worlds and offer the security of a well-organized trip with the surprise of a more spontaneous adventure.
Have you ever read a choose your own adventure book? This is a book that has multiple endings and chapter variations.
When you come to the end of a section, you are asked to choose between a few options or directions to take the story.
For example, your character could stumble upon crossroads with one road leading to the city and one road leading to the village and another road leading to a place unknown.
Then you turn to the page of your choice and continue your story.
They were popularized as Choose Your Own Adventures and this is something you can offer too.
Instead of telling people that they will go from point A to point B, you will show up and give them 3 options at the beginning of each trip.
Let us assume it is a two-week adventure.
On day one or prior to their arrival they need to choose their first adventure.
Option one and option two can be very specific, but option three should be an option of surprise where you do not tell them what they will be doing until they get to the location.
When that particular adventure is complete, you let them choose their next adventure and this continues until their trip has ended.
You can combine this in any number of ways and you will need to have already pre-selected a number of options for people to choose from.
As you progress, you will be able to adjust your business to improve the process and continue to offer the best possible adventure for your clients while running one of the world's top small business ideas.
