Operating across South East Queensland and Northern Rivers (NSW)
Potential
The business operates year-round, with peak activity during school holidays and weekends, typically 2 to 3 days per week during busy periods. A new owner could hire staff to run multiple simultaneous events, expand into corporate team-building, grow into Brisbane and broader QLD regions, or add complementary products such as Silent Disco or Nerf Parties. The existing 12+ year client database has never been actively marketed to, and all current bookings have been generated organically, no paid social media advertising has ever been used.
Skills
No prior experience in events or laser tag required. The current owner provides full training across all event formats: birthday parties, sports break-ups, school and vacation care bookings, and large-scale events, both indoor and outdoor. Basic physical fitness to load and unload equipment is helpful. Strong people skills and reliability are the most important qualities. A friendly, professional manner is essential as the business operates directly with schools, councils and community organisations.
Hours
Approximately 2-3 days per week during school holidays and weekends. Events run 2-4 hours including setup and packdown.
Lease
No lease required. Fully home-based operation. A garage or small storage space for equipment is all that is needed.
Employees
Currently owner-operated with no permanent staff. The business is designed to run as a solo operation. A new owner can hire casual staff to expand capacity and run multiple events simultaneously, significantly increasing revenue potential.
Reason for Sale
After 12+ years building Red Scorpion Mobile Laser Tag into one of SE Queensland's most established mobile entertainment businesses, the current owner is ready to move on to a new chapter. The business is in excellent health: strong financials, a loyal client base and clean operational history, and is being sold as a fully operational, turnkey opportunity for the right buyer.
About the Business
Red Scorpion Mobile Laser Tag is a fully mobile entertainment business delivering professional laser tag experiences across South East Queensland and Northern Rivers (NSW) for over 12 years. Operating primarily B2B, it serves schools, councils, OSHC and vacation care centres, community organisations and corporate clients, with birthday parties as an additional and easily scalable revenue stream. No shopfront, no permanent staff, and no complex systems required.
The business operates on a simple model: load the van, drive to the location, set up the battlefield, run the event, and pack down. Everything is self-contained and delivered directly to the client's chosen venue, whether that's a backyard, a public park, a school oval, an indoor hall or a large festival site.
With a 79% repeat client rate, the business runs largely on word of mouth and repeat bookings. Its institutional client base includes over 70 OSHC and vacation care centres across QLD and NSW, city and regional councils, schools, PCYC, Centacare, YMCA and School Camps QLD, clients that book consistently year after year, providing predictable, stable revenue throughout the calendar year.
Revenue per event is strong: vacation care sessions typically generate around $1,000, while sports break-ups and school events range between $1,500 and $2,500. Birthday parties start at $790 and can be easily upsold with optional add-ons.
The business has delivered consistent financial performance over more than a decade. Annual turnover ranges from $155,000 to $190,000, generating approximately $100,000 in annual profit after operating costs. Operating expenses sit at just 15–20% of turnover, with no rent and no payroll.
All bookings to date have been generated organically through word of mouth, repeat clients and SEO. No paid social media advertising has ever been used, representing a significant and immediate growth opportunity for a new owner.
The business benefits from a strong digital presence built over a decade, including an SEO-established website, active Facebook, Instagram and YouTube channels, and a Mailchimp client database built over 12+ years, all included in the sale and continuing to generate inbound enquiries with minimal ongoing effort.
This is a fully home-based, turnkey operation. All that is needed is a garage or small storage space for the equipment. Bookings are managed from a phone or home office. The business currently holds $20,000,000 in public liability coverage with a clean insurance history: zero claims across all years of operation.
History
Red Scorpion Mobile Laser Tag was founded over 12 years ago on the Gold Coast with a simple vision: deliver professional laser tag experiences directly to the client's location. What began as a small local operation has grown into one of SE Queensland's most established mobile entertainment businesses, built almost entirely on word of mouth, repeat bookings and a reputation for reliability and professionalism across schools, councils and community organisations.
