Shared Stakes, Shared Success: Owned and Operated by Multi-Unit Franchisees
Experience You Can Lean On: Nick Mastrandrea
When we talk about “boots-on-the-ground” leadership, we’re talking about Nick Mastrandrea. As our Chief Development Officer, Nick brings a powerhouse perspective to the Monster Mini Golf executive team, rooted in 18 years as a successful multi-unit operator. He doesn’t just understand the franchise model in theory—he has lived it daily for nearly two decades, navigating everything from site selection and construction to team culture and local market dominance. This dual role as both a high-level strategist and an active franchise owner means Nick’s development advice is battle-tested and focused on one thing: unit-level profitability. For new and existing franchisees, Nick is more than an executive; he is a mentor who has already walked the path to multi-unit success and is dedicated to helping you do the same.
Leading by Example: Christopher King
As the CEO of Monster Entertainment and a multi-unit franchisee himself, Christopher King embodies the “owner-operator” spirit that defines our brand. Chris doesn’t just lead the franchise system from a corporate headquarters; he actively operates three successful locations in the Charlotte, NC area, giving him a real-time pulse on the industry and the daily needs of our franchise partners. With a deep background in business development and lead generation, Chris focuses on bridging the gap between high-level brand vision and the practical realities of driving traffic to the front doors. His leadership is defined by a commitment to transparent support, ensuring that every tool and strategy provided by corporate has been tested and proven in his own facilities first. When you partner with Monster Mini Golf, you are led by a CEO who shares your stakes and is personally invested in the success of the fairways.

Break from the norm with Monster Mini Golf®
Are you tired of the corporate grind and ready to trade spreadsheets for smiles? Many of our owners started exactly where you are—looking for a career change that offered more than just a paycheck. Transitioning from a high-stress corporate role to a Monster Mini Golf franchisee means moving into a world of high-energy fun, community impact, and proven business systems. We’ve spent 22 years perfecting a “business-in-a-box” model that allows you to be the boss of your own entertainment empire while enjoying the stability of a legacy brand. Watch the video below to see how one owner walked away from the grind and never looked back—then take the first step toward owning your own world of monstrous fun!
What does a typical day look like for you as a franchise owner?
As a franchise owner, I am able to structure my schedule with flexibility. Since I reside near my New Jersey location, I typically conduct meetings and address administrative responsibilities on weekdays before opening hours. This time is also used to manage maintenance tasks such as repairs and deep cleaning. Once the New Jersey location opens and staff are present, I leave to fulfill family obligations, returning to the location if necessary. On weekends, I make it a priority to be present at one of my establishments, engaging directly with guests on the floor.
What has surprised you most — in a good way — about owning this business?
What has most surprised me about owning Monster Mini Golf is the extent to which fellow franchisees and owners are willing to openly share their experiences, fostering a friendly and highly supportive environment.
Monster Mini Golf is known for creativity and fun. How does that show up in your day-to-day operations?
Creativity and fun are present in the daily operations at my Monster Mini Golf locations in numerous ways. This is reflected through things like guest interactions or fun presentations of new merchandise within our machines. The entire center is designed to create an atmosphere of creativity and fun, so it shines throughout the day-to-day operations!

Children love stepping into our Glow-in-the-Dark Wonderland!
When a group of 5-to-10-year-olds walks through our doors, they aren’t just playing mini golf; they’re entering a living cartoon! Here is how we keep the “monstrous” fun going:
- The “Glow” Factor: Everything pops in the blacklight.
- Animated Interaction: Our monsters – they wiggle, talk, and surprise!
- The In-House DJ: Not only background music; our live DJs interact.
- The Arcade After-Party: Once the final putt is sunk, the mission continues in the arcade.
Not Your Kid’s Mini Golf: The Ultimate Adult Hangout
Adults don’t outgrown the glow! Monster Mini Golf is the perfect antidote to the “dinner and a movie” routine. We engage adult groups by amping up the atmosphere and leaning into the “retro-cool” vibe:
- The High-Energy Soundscape: Our in-house DJ isn’t just for the kids.
- Low-Stakes, High-Laughter Competition: Mini golf is the ultimate social equalizer.
- The “Instagrammable” Aesthetic: the glow shows (well).
- The Nostalgia Trip: Our arcade features a blend of the latest high-tech games and classic favorites that bring back that “90s mall” feeling—in the best way possible.
Bridging the Generation Gap, One Putt at a Time
It’s rare to find a place where a kindergartner and a retiree are equally entertained, but that is the magic of Monster Mini Golf. Our unique environment combines the nostalgia of classic mini golf with a high-tech, neon twist that captivates every age group. We take pride in being the go-to destination for family reunions and community gatherings because our facility is safe, accessible, and—most importantly—genuinely fun for humans of all vintages.

Teamwork takes us from Blueprint to Big Opening: The BUILD’M Advantage
Navigating the complexities of construction and project management can be a monster of a task—but you don’t have to do it alone. As a Monster Mini Golf franchisee, you have the exclusive support of BUILD’M, the dedicated project management arm of the REP’M Group. Our team acts as your expert eyes and ears on the ground, ensuring your location is built to brand standards, stays on a strict timeline, and avoids the costly pitfalls of independent construction. We handle the heavy lifting of vendor coordination and site oversight so you can focus on launching your business with confidence. The best part? This high-level professional oversight is provided at no cost to you, ensuring your doors open on time, within budget, and ready to glow!
Real People, Real Relationships, Zero Shadows: Our Commitment to Transparent Support
In an industry where “corporate” can sometimes feel like a black box, Monster Mini Golf operates with a different philosophy: Total Transparency. We believe that the strongest franchise relationships are built on open communication and shared data, which is why our corporate team is dedicated to providing clear, unvarnished support at every turn. From deep-dives into unit-level economics to honest feedback on local marketing strategies, we ensure you have a “seat at the table” and full visibility into the systems driving your success. We don’t just provide a brand; we provide a partnership where your voice is heard and our support is visible, measurable, and always focused on your bottom line.
- Eliminates the “Corporate vs. Franchisee” Divide: By being transparent, you remove any communication walls.
- De-Risks the Investment: For someone leaving a corporate 9-to-5, the biggest fear is the unknown. Transparent support—especially regarding unit-level economics and Build’M project timelines—replaces fear with predictability.
- Faster Course Correction: Transparency creates a “Real-Time Feedback Loop. If a location is struggling, a transparent support system allows corporate and the owner to look at the data together without ego or defensiveness. You can identify the problem and pivot quickly as needed.
- Cultivates Brand Innovation: When franchisees feel supported and seen, they are more likely to share their own “on-the-ground” innovations. Our best ideas for the next 20 years may often come from the people running the stores.
- It Builds “Franchisee Validation: In franchise sales, the most important step is when a candidate calls an existing owner to ask, “Does corporate actually do what they say they will?” Transparent support is the only way to ensure that answer is a resounding “Yes”.
