who is this promotion aimed at?
[QUOTE=Iseeu]
. Bernd's is a perfect point in case with some of its best SP leaving for "bigger contracts" elsewhere. But it retains its core, and manages to survive amongst the "big boys" by playing the game as it should be played.
Bernd's like most small market clubs is suffering from a slowdown in visitors as well as lower spend by its local regulars (this from many of their veteran SP). Their promotion is more a sign of the economic times than a sign that something ain't working.[/QUOTE]
Yes Bernds is offering a promotion, but that promotion is skewed towards rewarding the locals who are already visiting the club on a regular basis. If a club is having a hard time getting a steady flow of customers, you don't open with such a limited promotion such as the one they've instituted. Your regulars who visit the club every couple of weeks are who will benefit from this promotion, not the tourist who's in town every couple of months.
I'll speak for the guys who's trips don't come more than once a month...this promotion sucks. I've got 300 euro's to burn roughly every day on a trip, promising to give me 20 off a future visit as long as its within one month won't get my 300 euro's into their club. If they want a fraction of the hobbiests on this and other boards who don't frequent their club to spend their 300 euro's at their club, they better think of a better promotion.
Bernds will survive the economic slowdown and the lack of spending of their visitors, their overhead is much lower than pretty much every club talked about on this forum. On the other hand, if the girls aren't making what they need to make then they'll be looking elsewhere.
