How It Started
Gregory’s entrepreneurial story began in middle school, when he helped organize a festival and borrowed equipment from a local vendor. By the end of the event, he made enough profit to buy some of the gear outright... and the idea stuck.
Years later, that same ambition turned into a business. He learned the ropes by doing: setting up tents, managing deliveries, fixing equipment, and reinvesting every dollar back into inventory. Over time, his reputation for reliability and energy spread by word of mouth. Today, Tycoon Party Rental is a full-service operation and a family affair, with Gregory’s teenage son joining him in the field, learning the business firsthand and proudly carrying on the Tycoon legacy.
In just a few years, Tycoon Party Rental has expanded into one of the go-to providers in Broward and Miami-Dade counties. Growth has been fast, but deliberate. Each new piece of equipment represents an investment, each weekend a chance to strengthen community trust.
Scaling an event business is no small feat. The demand is seasonal and unpredictable; one week might bring ten events, the next only two. Weather, holidays, and cancellations can turn a packed schedule into a quiet one overnight. Maintaining cash flow between busy weekends is a constant challenge, and that’s where funding flexibility becomes critical.
Social media has been a massive growth engine for Tycoon. Facebook and Instagram posts showcasing bright inflatables and smiling faces have turned followers into customers. Viral videos and positive reviews drive traffic, and every share fuels demand. But visibility also brings pressure: in this business, one missed setup or late delivery can spread just as fast as a five-star review.
Gregory thrives on that challenge. Every event is a chance to deliver joy, earn trust, and build something lasting for his family and community.
For most party rental companies, getting financing is one of the hardest parts of the business. Traditional banks often see event rentals as too risky or too seasonal. Many small operators are turned down for business credit cards or loans because their income fluctuates month to month. Even when they’re approved, the process can take weeks which far too long when a new opportunity or bulk equipment deal pops up.
Some owners turn to personal credit cards, payday loans, or merchant cash advances with sky-high interest rates — but those solutions create more stress than support.
That’s where Revenued changes the game.
Gregory needed a funding source that worked at his pace. One that understood the realities of running a small, service-based business. With the Revenued Flex Line, he can draw funds instantly to cover equipment repairs, purchase new inventory, hire temporary staff for large events, or fuel trucks for out-of-town deliveries.
The process was simple, fast, and transparent. Gregory now uses his Revenued Business Card for larger purchases like inflatables, generators, tents, and vehicles, giving him the flexibility to scale confidently without relying on personal credit.
For Tycoon Party Rental, Revenued isn’t just a financing tool, it’s a growth partner that helps keep the business moving through busy seasons, slow months, and everything in between.
The event and party rental industry is dynamic, competitive, and capital-intensive. Operators must constantly invest in new inventory, maintain existing equipment, and keep up with trends like LED dance floors and themed inflatables and custom photo setups.
Typical financing options for rental businesses include:
Traditional bank loans, which are hard to qualify for and require lengthy approval times.
Equipment financing, which covers large purchases but locks funds into specific assets.
Merchant cash advances, which provide quick access to cash but often come with steep terms.
Personal credit cards or savings, which put the owner’s finances at risk.
None of those offer the agility a small rental company needs when opportunities come fast and funding needs to be flexible. In an industry where every weekend counts, that flexibility is everything.
