Smiley Booth Sussex

During my time with Smiley Booth, I have always found Kate and Lee to be entirely supportive, energetic and most importantly to me, transparent. The systems that are in place keep your business running smoothly and efficiently with Lee constantly looking to improve and analyse the results. Kate's cool headed approach to any technical problem out in the field has been immensely reassuring on the very rare occasions that it has been called upon, regardless of time! The support team are always a phone call away with vast knowledge in every aspect of this business, coupled with a network of fellow franchisees always there to share their experiences and thoughts. Smiley Booth has been and continues to be a fantastic franchise opportunity. If you are looking to be your own boss, be rewarded for the effort that you put in, gain access to outstanding venues and enjoy creating and participating in providing a quality fun experience for our Smiley Booth clients, then this franchise delivers.

Smiley Booth Dorset

Before buying Smileybooth Hampshire, and then Dorset I worked for Lee and Kate as a "Booth Butler" and absolutely loved the experiences I had. In 2017 I was asked to join Lee, Kate and new franchisees at the National Wedding show, this is when I decided I needed to buy into this business, I had easily made over £2000 just in deposits for the franchises and only made £200 for myself, so this was a no brainer. Since buying the business I haven't regretted one second of it. Initially I had one photobooth and was doing a minimum of around 2 bookings per week, I even managed to squeeze in two bookings a day for the right events. I now have 3 photobooths and prior to Covid-19 was managing 2/3 events every Friday and Saturday and the best bit about it was I was doing it from a sun lounger in South Africa. I've missed working so much during the pandemic and cant wait to get back up and running again and do better than ever!

Stuart & Jackie

Smiley Booth Cyprus

Stuart & I are lucky enough to have had the opportunity to join a fun and exciting industry. We bought in to Smiley Booth Cyprus in 2019 and after our initial training with Lee and Kate, along with finding our feet, the events started coming in thick and fast, which was super exciting and very fast paced. Unfortunately for us, and for many others like us in the event’s industry across the world, Covid kicked in, putting a hold on events but, not a hold on future bookings. The trick was, we found to keep being seen, staying loud and present on social media etc. We are still super excited and can see, and believe in, Smiley Booth’s massive potential as a very exciting and profitable business. Although, Covid has held us up and it has been frustrating at times we have absolutely no doubt that the events industry is going to go mad again here in Cyprus, just like it is doing in the UK right now! So much so we have just invested in another new photo booth and a Magic mirror. As a bonus, it’s been fantastic building new relationships and seeing people have lots of fun.
