What is the average revenue for a nightclub?

I bartended at a nightclub in Fullerton, CA. My average sales were $1,000.00-$3,000.00 a shift. We were open Tues., Thurs., Fri., Sat. and alternating Wed. \nTues. = 4 bartenders X $2,000.00 = $8,000.00\nThurs. = 5 bartenders X $2,000.00 = $10,000.00\nFri. = 5 bartenders X $2,000.00 = $10,000.00\nSat. = 5 bartenders X $2,000.00 = $10,000.00\n=38,000.00 X 4.3 weeks =$163,400.00 a month +\nWed. = 2 bartenders X $2,000.00 = $4,000.00\n= $4,000.00 X 2.1 weeks = $8,400.00\n\n$171,800.00 a month or $2,061,600.00 a year..............not counting the door (which usually went to the promoter) and not subtracting any overhead (insurance for nightclubs is obscene)

Depends on the type of event. Weekend nights, especially Saturdays, are always in demand, so you can obviously charge more on those nights. Some DJs have flat rates regardless of the event, but I charge by the event type. As a college student, I would rather DJ a fraternity party than a wedding, but a fraternity usually does not have as much money available to pay a DJ as a wedding client. So in order to keep a good balance of event types, I typically charge $800 for a 4-hour wedding, and $450 for a 4-hour college party. Other events I take as they come: for example, my going rate for Proms and other high school formals is $700, corporate clients I charge $600, and so on. Basically, if I'm indifferent as to the type of event, I base the price on how much prep work I will have to do - weddings require a fair amount of planning (and thus time), so I charge more for them.\n\nAll the prices I have listed thus far are for Friday and Saturday nights. For weeknights, I typically DJ at a club in my area one night a week for about $200, but bear in mind that I don't have to bring my own equipment to the club. Any clients who call for a weeknight gig, I basically get what I can get. It usually figures to be around $300.

i live in vegas but i'm too young for the clubs. i see a lot of ads and it looks like the BLUE ROOM is very elegant-like; the BEACH is very nice, but the drinks are expensive (i learned that from this lady i used to bbsit for); and RUM JUNGLE  is good if you really like to hook up and get down.\n\nwhen i'm old enough, im gonna club hop so much! lol

Food cost and payroll generally eats up 70-80% of your revenue (i.e. you make 20-30% profit); and the vast majority of restaurants go bankrupt after less than one year.\n\nOn the other hand, profits on liquor sales tend to be higher (40-60%), but it can sometimes be difficult getting the necessary licenses to sell anything more than beer and wine.\n\nSo, I say restaurant and bar, if possible.

actually I read that is about 75% ads on a magazine, however for a business is good to have not all advertising, but clever and enough advertising that gets the attention of people.  The costs I can't tell you for sure, but is usually really expensive, I guess in a magazine is done with a contract between major and magazine reps and small magazines or places is usually on publication by publication basis.

Depends completely on the sports bar. You need more information. I've seen sports bars purchased and opened for $15,000. I've also seen them built and opened for $3,000,000. It all depends on the situation.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants/Retail/Bars\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com

Most DJ's are paid a low rate.  Audio producers get paid slightly more for their talents.  The real money is in sales though.  While a DJ drives around in a beat up used car that is between 10 and 20 years old the salepeople drive around in brand new Lincoln Town Cars and great big SUV's.  It sucks but that's the way it works.  And yes, the money comes from advertising.  As for the artists which are played, every radio station pays the record companies based on how many times a day the song is played.  If the station has a webcast they have to pay twice.

The city will matter because they won't issue a business license unless your facility is in the right zone.  Do not assume that you can open such a facility in any commercial zone because that is not the case...you have to check with the city to see what version of Commercial zoning will allow for a club.\n\nNext you need two other permits that I know of; a license from ABC (Alcohol Beverage Control) to sell for consumption on site (a hard license to get and expensive I believe).  And then a customary county health department permit which isn't usually too bad ($600 where I live).\n\nGood luck.

sacramento will pay well, but look to reno in nevada for better rates. my sister worked at a strip joint in reno for a few months, even without stripping she would pull in a few hundred a night.\n\nshe told me once that the strippers made between $1000 and $5000 a night depending on the clients and the stage... she did also mention once that none of the strippers seemed happy though, something to consider....

It really depends on the location. When I was in my early 20's (seems so long ago), I bartended in a pretty popular club while going to school. I only worked 3-4 nights a week, and I earned over 60k a year. I would walk out with about $400 a night. It's a lot of late nights, and you could get caught up in it, but if you are young it's great. A good friend of mine, never went to school, started waiting tables at 18, by 23, he was the head bartender at a popular local bar, and now, at 29, he is the head bartender at the Wynn Casino in Vegas, he easily makes $1000 a shift...

In November 2005, PAII released the 2004 Industry Study of Operations and Finance. This survey of 285 properties showed occupancy rates averaged 41.4% in 2004 up from 39.9% in 2003. The average daily rate (ADR) paid by B&B guests increased from $142.73 to $143.90 over the same period, driving revenue per available room (RevPar) to $59.57, a growth of 4.6%. This drove industry revenue to an estimated $3.2 billion in 2004. The study also noted that “while new inns continued to open in 2004, the increase was offset by the reversion of some properties to single family homes, particularly in resort areas where real estate prices have escalated.”

check out some country-clubs in the yellow pages. They usually have decent rates (and their used to putting up with rich stiffs)

According to the book _Freakonomics_, the average drug dealer makes about as much as he would working at McDonalds. Only those at the top of the drug dealing organizations make significant amounts of money, and very few drug dealers ever manage to become crime bosses (just like few McDonalds employees become highly paid corporate executives).

Call up the station and ask. They have playlists that all the DJs can access. Ask them and they can probably help you out better than here where most people are not local to you.

around 400 - and that is a real figure - I just started early and went clubbing a lot...for some reason it has just always been easy for me to find partners.

I made $3,600 but had to pay my own expenses for all tournaments.  Another club pays $1,500 plus room expenses for all tournaments.
