Inflatable Parade Float Generates Walk-In Business for Travel Agency

Inflatable Cruise ShipInflatable Parade Float Makes Waves for Local Travel Agency

Ever since he can remember, Brando Quinn has loved parades. "As a kid," he says, "I liked watching the Macy's parade on Thanksgiving Day." So, when he was looking for a powerful tool for drawing traffic to his Fun N' Sun Travel & Cruise Agency, he immediately chose a parade float.

That's when the travel-savvy Quinn contacted Landmark Creations.

 Based on reviews from other clients he knew Landmark would come through reliably... with a superior product backed by outstanding service.

Working closely with Quinn, we created an inflatable cruise ship, authentic in every detail from stem to stern. At eight feet high and 20 feet wide, it was designed to attract attention, boost awareness, and build visibility.

So far, Quinn's "boat float" inspiration has paid off. Mounted behind a flatbed truck, the inflatable parade float has made a splash at local Halloween, Christmas, and 4th of July events. "Each time I've used the float as a parade tool," asserts Quinn, "my walk-in business has increased."

To top it off, the impressive float puts smiles on children's faces. As Quinn can testify from his own childhood experience, that's what parades are all about. Have questions about creating a parade float for your business? Give us a shout.

"[There was] fun, excitement, and encouragement for everyone to actually walk under/through [the arch] and it worked.  We have cheerleaders and small children at the finish line by the arch handing out stickers, saying ‘I did it.’ Before we had the arch, [people] would straggle in anywhere."

- Jackie Allen, March of Dimes

"Our tunnel was also a great addition to our pre-game tradition: the Wildcat walk. Our city shuts down three blocks of downtown, and we have hundreds of fans lining the streets with a police escort, while we walk to the stadium."

- Sam Baker, Head Football Coach at Waconia High School

“[The inflatable arch] created a wonderful backdrop to brand our events, capture our sponsors in the photos used by the participants, and made it easy to travel down the coast of California without taking up too much space on our trucks.”
