Tennessee businessman Chris Hampton is the owner of Boogie Heads. A resident of Chattanooga, he has been founding companies focused on family-friendly party entertainment options for years. In this article, Hampton explains what has caused Boogie Heads to become so popular with people of all ages.
These days, a lot of parties have become boring and mundane. Many party guests feel like they have already done it all and seen all of the party entertainment options that are out there, so party hosts and event planners have been dying for something different to impress their clients and friends.
When a person plans a birthday party or a corporate event, one of the most common things he looks for is something different. He wants something that is cooler and edgier than whatever he had at his party last year. And for a lot of people, Boogie Heads is just that thing.
When a mom is planning her daughter’s birthday party, she doesn’t want to get the same entertainment or have the same activity as her daughter’s friend already had at her party. The same thing goes for people who plan conventions, grown-up parties, conferences, corporate events, and promotional events. What all of these people have in common is they are looking for something new and different to feature at their party. And just as importantly, they want something that is going to make people have a lot of fun and interact with each other.
Boogie Heads has experienced extreme growth in popularity because it is something relatively new, and because it is a great conversation-starter to have at a party for guests of all ages. Whereas many other entertainment options have people just watching something, Boogie Heads is interactive. It brings new people together, since anyone can star in a music video together and have a good laugh at the outcome.
Boogie Heads is also inclusive. Everyone can participate in Boogie Heads, not just people who have a special talent. It is not like karaoke, where the only people who actually like doing it are really good singers. Anyone can be a great dancer with Boogie Heads.
To participate in a Boogie Heads video, you barely have to do anything besides sit on a stool and wear a green tarp. The funniness of a Boogie Heads video comes from the dancers on whose bodies we put the party guests’ heads. Guests aren’t expected to do anything wild or wacky on their own, and that is what allows so many people—who might be otherwise shy or reserved—to get involved and have a great time at the party.
You could be the most boring guy ever in the office on a day-to-day basis. But when you get to the office Christmas party and a Boogie Heads entertainment system has been set up, all you have to do is sit there and be video-taped, and you will all of a sudden have everyone laughing with you. When your head is on someone else’s body dancing away, you have no choice but to laugh.
Boogie Heads will no doubt continue to grow in popularity as more and more people find out about it and begin asking for it at their own events and get-togethers.
