UPGRADE, UPLIFT, UPSCALE & UP UP AND AWAY FROM YOUR COMPETITION, & BOOKING
BANDS IN 2001!
By RICH UNGER
It's time to take a long hard look at your Club, your restaurant and it's
time to upgrade it through a new menu, it's time to uplift it through new and
exciting promotions, and it's time to upscale it through a new dress code and
new Policy regarding a Cover Charge and drink prices.
Giving away the bar does not make for a profitable operation. All you can drink, "Sink or Swim" nights does not attract the crowd you
want. Early Birds only bring out the Blue Hairs and people looking for a bargain
meal. All You Can Eat Promotions brings out the Jenny Craig refugees.
It's time to take your club and your restaurant to the next level and do it
with a dramatic swift motion.
I have seen so many potentially great food and beverage operations linger
because of the failure of the Ownership and Management to realize the flat
position the establishment is in and are either unable or afraid to take the
initiatives that are required to bring the place back to life. I just don't get it?
So, you are booking National Acts, and you don't know where to turn I have
two suggestions, first go to ONLINETALENT.COM - Entertainment booking agency and turn-key concert event production company specializing in contracting the biggest names in live entertainment, music, sports, comedy, magic, professional speaking and Hollywood celebrities for corporate events, fund raisers, private parties and more.
I just read a hysterical list of demands or as we in the Concert Biz call
them the infamous "Rider" the wants and whims of any Artist above and beyond
their contracted financial arrangements. Click on the "Backstage Pass" link and marvel at what the hotties and not so
hotties are demanding these days.
Backstage Pass.
I can't fathom having to meet these spoiled brats pleasures
just to book them....No Thanks
I have produced and promoted hundreds of concerts in my life, and the best
groups to work with are the up and comers and the already been there's.. Concerts presented in Club settings are a gold mine, I have made a ton of
cash over and over producing such concerts. The avenues of revenue that are available are great.
The best Directory for Artists and their Booking Agencies is the Pollstar
"AGENCY ROSTERS" book. It is the Bible of the industry as far as any group, artist, performer, and
act is concerned. Just go to the web site link I have provided and order this Directory from
the fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties to Destiny's Child, it's
all in this ultimate Talent Yellow Pages. The 2000/2001 Edition is hot off
the presses and ready for you to find that oldie goldie or that hip hoper or
that cutting edger. It's all right here Pollstar: Company Information (Music Industry Contact
Directories).
Finally, it's time you presented live concerts, regardless of your format
or music direction, Need Help???
