Since the last version of the frontend, we've tracked every account in a mysql database. Mysql has a nice ODBC connector, so I just imported everything into a open office spreadsheet and started playing with it. Here are the results in google docs format. https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key ... jaGc&hl=en 7 Bamboo's karaoke is run 4 nights a week with this system, 22 months at 4 nights a week comes out to about 352 days. What we can conclude from that is if it were run 7 nights a week, we could see the same amount of money in about a year. Some of the interesting stuff I found out... Out of the $31k used in the system, almost $5k of it is "float" meaning, credits waiting to be spent. This could be regulars that have held onto their cards for a while, or cards that had credit on them but lost. This boosts the nightly average up to $88@night. Once we get the new system up, $1 per spot up bribes will automatically come into play, increasing your revenue even further. The only time I have to touch the system is when a mic needs to be cut (as shown in the other thread) Other than that, the EMU 1820m compressors do a beautiful job of keeping both music and vocals at a constant level throughout the night. Bottom line is, sign a contract with SC, buy about $1000 in old PC's, dollar bill validators, and touchscreens, and you could have your own little money machine somewhere (provided the venue already has a sound system) Just stop by once a week to empty out the cash. $32k@year if you can get the place to run 7 days a week. This will multiply even further if the venue is busy and requires more than 1 stage (Kurt assured me that if you have 1 pc with multiple audio/video out, you can do this on one set) Wish me luck on the first test guys. I'm gunning for a large venue in my area capable of multistage. (Oh and before the issue of sound isolation in a multistage environment comes up, it's easy, just look at how movie theaters do it) |
