A party can be extra special if it has a theme---especially one that the party guests can really get into. An '80s theme is great for young adult parties. The outfits are easy to put together and fun to wear. You can even decorate the inside of the bus in 1980s memorabilia---such as movie posters from that decade. A 1980s theme can make the party bus experience more fun without costing a lot more money. Some party bus companies, including Boston's Bustonian, even have special themed 1980s buses.
Magician
Children will love riding on the party bus, but they may need some additional entertainment during the ride. Consider hiring a magician to perform while the bus is traveling. Some magicians even have special tricks designed for party buses. Magician fees vary widely based on experience and reputation. Some party bus companies have partnerships with certain magicians allowing you to get a discuss rate if you book both.
Special Cocktail
Adult party buses are often associated with alcohol, play up the association by offering a specially mixed cocktail just for the occasion. If your party has a theme, choose a cocktail to match. For example, if you are hosting a Hawaiian-themed party, consider serving a pina colada as the signature drink. Most party bus companies will require all partygoers to show identification before getting on the bus, though, so be sure that all of your invited guests are of age.
Historical Tour
Put a spin on the party bus concept by hosting a wine and cheese historical tour of a city. Senior citizens might enjoy touring Boston, Philadelphia, San Francisco or other historical cities in a party bus while sipping wine and listening to music. Alternatively, a tour of your family's hometown on a party bus could add a new twist to your next family reunion.
Miniature Golf
While a miniature golf course may not fit on the party bus, you can incorporate mini golfing into a party bus outing. Both kids and adults will enjoy traveling in the party bus to get to a miniature golf course, playing a round, and then hopping back on the bus for dinner and/or drinks. If you are hosting an adult party, be sure your guests have not had too much to drink prior to golfing.

How to Find Construction Jobs to Bid onIn Feburary 2016 20,
In Feburary 2016 20,
Sign up for the Blue Book's BB Bid program. The Blue Book is a free resource that is found in almost every construction office in North America. It lists contractors by trade and region. Visit the Blue Book website to get your company listed free of charge. As contractors begin to see your name in the Blue Book, they will send bid invitations your way. This is an especially useful way for out-of-state contractors to find local companies to perform work.
Complete the American Institute of Architect's (AIA) Subcontractor Qualification form No. A305. This form is considered a standard resource to help contractors and owners evaluate new subcontracting companies. You can find this form on the AIA website.
Visit contractors and ask about construction bidding opportunities. Provide them with a copy of your completed A305 to give them an indication of your company's abilities. Ask how you can be placed on their company bid list. Most contractors will send bid invitations to all contractors on the bid list automatically, so the more contractors that put you on their lists, the better.
Look online. Most contractors have websites, and often they will list jobs they are accepting bids for on their site. In these situations, they will often have plans and specifications listed as well. By sending your bid in on these jobs, you are getting your company name out, so the more bids you send, the better.
Check into state and federal jobs. Most municipal jobs are open to all bidders, and drawings can often be found on the organization's website. Check with your state to see what's available in your area. This is an especially good construction bidding opportunity for minority business owners, who often are in high demand for municipal jobs due to minority participation requirements.

How to Sell Server SpaceIn Feburary 2016 15,
In Feburary 2016 15,
Set up your web server. You can either build one, purchase one, or rent space on an existing web server. Next you will need to insure the server is connected to a high speed internet connection with a dedicated ip address. Then purchase a domain name and configure name servers such as ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com. This will allow those buying web server space from you to point their domains to your web server. Ensure the necessary programs and software are installed, such as the Linux Operating System, Apache Server software, PHP programming environment, and MySQL databases.
Select your administration software. One of the most automatic and easy to use web server administration software is the combination of cPanel and Web Host Manger (WHM). This will allow you to quickly and easily setup new web sites on your server, perform administrative tasks, as well as give limited control and configuration to your customers.
Set up hosting packages. You should create different price points for different packages which include different features and level of storage space and bandwidth. This can be easily done with WHM. Make sure to assign the correct package when setting up a new site for a customer. Changes or upgrades can be easily made as well.
Create a web site to advertise, display the pricing and details of each package, and to take credit card orders is an effective and helpful way to bring in new customers. Create language about support, terms of conditions, ways to order, information about your company, and more.
Set up a PayPal account to accept credit card payments. One of the most cost effective and easiest ways to accept recurring monthly billing through credit cards is with PayPal subscriptions. Creating a PayPal account is free with a 3 to 5 percent fee charged to each order. PayPal is a commonly used method and allows for purchase with a PayPal account, credit card, or debit card. When configured correctly the order will automatically bill each month, year, or whatever period you set up. You can easily email an invoice with a payment link or embed the payment link into your web site.
Create or rent a daily backup solution so that your data and those of your clients are protected from any viruses, hacker attempts, or hardware or software failures. Explain your backup policy to your customers in your terms of agreement and determine any potential problems or limitations ahead of time.
Set up a fee structure for additional services. This includes advanced support, site or data restoration, custom coding, custom configuration, web design, and more. By offering these additional services you can increase your income and continue to meet the needs of your customers.
