Return On Investment
Your Return on Investment (ROI) is pretty good. Consider that your cost per week will average as little as $32.08 per week. You will be hosting up to two games a night per week. Each game averages 2-3 hours in length depending on the number of players. Let's say you are averaging 20 players per game (about 15% of the players are different between games). In this scenario you will pull about 23 customers in for 4-6 hours. All you have to do is provide them space to play (8 players to a table, so that's 3 tables.) They will buy drinks and food. Many establishments that host poker typically have a few food specials for the poker players. For example, 10% off menu items or $5 burgers, or what ever you feel your people would go for. To be candid, not everyone who plays at your establishment will buy something. But the vast majority will. You can generally expect anywhere from $220 - $300+ in sales for the game scenario listed here. You will be paying as about $1.30 per customer per night and receiving an average of $12-$15 of sales per customer. Now that's a moneymaker. There are very few ways you can spend your marketing dollars that will return that kind of return. Why will people come to play at your establishment? People are social. They like to do things together like play cards. Most tavern poker players skew older. Many do not go out at night without a reason. Poker is a great social activity. People are creatures of habit. Once they are happy with something they tend to keep doing it.Your slow night becomes Poker Night and they will make every effort to visit you if you provide a fun environment.
