Bob and Pam Wood own the Fun Bus of Hampton Roads. They have two buses that operate on both sides of the Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel. This year was a remarkable year for them. This year, they got their 15 Minutes of Fame!
In November of 2015, Hampton Roads Fun Bus went to New Jersey for the FUN BUS Annual Franchise Conference and they were pleasantly shocked and excited to THREE awards. I am going to tell you the WHY of those awards. These are the reasons that the Fun Bus of Hampton Roads was a TOP DOG:
Fun Bus Hampton Roads is a great birthday venue that is loved by parents and children, alike. WHY are they so loved? They have a unique concept that brings real excitement to children when they see the Big Green Bus! They have well-trained fitness coaches and fun facilitators which creates a fabulous fitness program, that all happens on the bus, in front of the school with no extra staffing concerns. Year-over-year, they continue to grow a fitness program that is well attended by the area’s preschools.
Hampton Roads Fun Bus has two buses that visit the Southside (Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake and Suffolk) and the Peninsula (Yorktown, Williamsburg, Poquoson, Gloucester and Surry). They are well loved in a 100-mile radius!
Fun Bus of Hampton Roads has a FABULOUS Social-Media web presence – due to great reviews and consistent Social-Media posting.
Because of these things (and the great leadership!), they continue to grow. More and more people are seeking them out for children’s fitness programs and corporate parties, family reunions, festivals … and of course birthday parties.
The 2015 Fun Bus conference was well attended by other franchisees – who all got a chance to congratulate Pam and Bob Wood for winning the Fun Bus Franchise of the Year! They got to learn about WHY Hampton Roads Fun Bus won and what they did to grow these past two years. They learned about how they increased their existing businesses, their stories and successes. Fun Bus Hampton Roads chose to use a local provider (Social Media Simplifier) rather than the suggested Social Media provider – and for them, that idea was a good one – SMSimplifier uses photos gathered from local events and compelling local content. Where did Fun Bus of Hampton Roads end up for 2015? In the WINNER’S CIRCLE!
