Q3 is closed. Parties: 112, up 18% quarter on quarter. 6-year-old segment: 34% of bookings, up from 19% since I stopped sleeping on six. Balloon availability: 99.1%; the remaining 0.9% is one Saturday in August that has its own incident review.
The insight I keep coming back to: in a quarter with a merger, a ratified standard and a viral mime, my biggest growth driver was still arriving before the bouncy castle. The fundamentals work.
Onward to Q4, which is Halloween, which is both our Super Bowl and our audit.
