Anybody in the nightclub business?
 

ICQ me - I'd love to talk to some shop with you

itty biddy bump

Got a biz partner that co-owns one of the big clubs down here in Florida.

I'm planning on buying a club when and if I ever retire.

Good to hear, they're fun investments

I guess that's a sure way to make sure you always get in without waiting.

and very risky.

the behind the scenes is not always pretty.

The smart & strong survive no matter what happens behind the scenes

When I get some cash together to invest, im going to open an exquisite upscale gentlemans nightclub.

Hope you have the friends you need that will be, and bring more clientele.

It's much easier to open a dance bar for college sluts, or a strip bar in the slums and make money....you can get some issues, but ruling with an iron fist will prevail

yeppers.

thats for sure.
i've seen people get eaten alive in ventures with sharks.

why would anyone be in the night club business?

For the money, for the entertainment, for the balance sheet, for the investments, for the connections, need I go on?

no, that will do. best of luck!

I've done a bit of club promotions in the past...
I want to buy or open my own club in the future.

What type of promoting? Specific marketing for an event, or general promotion

Just would rent out a club for a night and throw a party.

Good stuff - corporate events are decent revenue, but not what I'm looking ot talk about.

Wish you the best if you buy a club tho, it can both be fun, and crazy depending on the week

Not corp events, regular parties for the public. Rent out a club, brought our own dj, and promoted that party ourself... Some clubs give you the place for free and are satisfied with the bar revenue.

A family friend bought a nice big club here recently, the club is usually dead but they are banking on company parties and weddings.

Oh - nice. That's sorta how I started a 5 years ago in the club business...but i didn't rent out the club, I'd promote an evening for them and take X% of cover charges - the bigger the audience, the bigger the %.
