Add a High-Value, Zero Upfront Cost Income Stream to Your Existing Balloon Retail Business Through a Partnership With Balloonery.com
Over the past eight years, we’ve grown Balloonery.com from a basement operation into one of the industry's largest independent balloon delivery and event decor brands. We’ve designed a catalog of hundreds of unique products, built an unparalleled e-commerce experience and helped nearly 100,000 clients make their celebrations a little more special through the magic of balloons.
We are now looking for experienced balloon business owners to partner with us to bring Balloonery.com to life in your local market.
We know you’ve worked hard to build your own amazing brand. As one of our partners, you will continue to operate your brand while earning an additional revenue stream from sales through Balloonery.com. Customers from your local area will order online through Balloonery.com, and you will fulfill their orders.
Who we’re looking for
We are looking for a small number of balloon business owners in major markets across the US and Canada.
- • We require a minimum of two years balloon experience as a retailer or decorator and experience with helium balloons as well as organic and classic decor.
• You must have a delivery-ready vehicle (minivan or larger).
- • You must have capacity to take on a minimum of 10 new orders daily.
Preference will be given to established operators who have either a retail store or dedicated production facility and production/delivery staff. However, home-based operators are still encouraged to apply if they are willing to invest in scaling their operations as demand increases.
Since our licensee model is designed to work in parallel to your existing business, this can be a fit whether or not your current business has an online presence.
Above all, we look for balloon operators who possess both the technical skills to make beautiful arrangements and share our unwavering commitment to delivering amazing customer experiences.

FAQ
Can I continue running my own business?
Yes! You can continue running your existing business while adding an
additional revenue stream by fulfilling Balloonery.com orders in your local
area.
I’ve never run an e-commerce store before. Will this work for me?
Yes! We’ll worry about the e-commerce and technical side of things while you
continue to focus on what you’re great at; building awesome balloon
arrangements and taking great care of your customers.
I already have a great website and a succesful business. What do I needBalloonery.com for?
If you already have an e-commerce site, you can keep on operating it as
before! This partnership enables you to add an additional income stream by
running your brand in parallel to Balloonery.com.
3. We also understand that local markets are different. We will combine both our data on what works on a national level with your local knowledge to tailor a catalog and marketing strategy that works best for your region.
4. We are small. We are expanding only to a limited number of markets to insure we can provide the support necessary to make sure every location enjoys the same amazing success as our flagship location.
How much will this cost?
Our fee is based on a small percentage of sales. There is no upfront risk other
than a modest inventory purchase from your local distributor.
Our partner model is designed to minimize upfront investment; however, we
are looking for entrepreneurs who are eager to invest in scaling their
operations as demand increases.
Do I require any specialized equipment?
You will need a minivan or larger vehicle for delivery. A high-roof van like a
Dodge Promaster or Ford Transit is ideal, but a minivan with seats removed
can get you started.
Other than that, as long as you currently work with helium, you probably
already have all the tools you need to get started.
What experience is required?
We are looking for balloon operators with a minimum of 2 years experience
working with helium as well as organic and classic decor.
Most importantly, we look for a proven track record of exceptional customer
service.
This opportunity is better suited for operators with a dedicated retail or
production facility with one or more staff members to assist with production
and delivery. However, home based operators with the right experience and
a willingness to invest in growing their business are encouraged to apply too.
What location are you looking for partners in?
At present, medium and large metropolitan areas in the US and Canada.
