Joe Allen is the owner of Jumpin' Jacks, a family owned and operated event rentals company that offers bounce houses, inflatables, and other event entertainment in Sonoma County.
Majority of rentals take place within a 6 month window from the end of April until the end of October, providing for a great lifestyle and very comfortable, livable income for Joe and his family.
Listen in as he shares his story - jumping (no pun intended) from cellular retail sales to buying (what was at the time) a very small bounce house business and making improvements that have helped him build to 750+ events per year (and growing).
