There's not really a lot to be excited about at present.
The 'Great Recession' is upon us and there's very little most people can do about it other than ride out the storm.
The natural response in tough times is for people to tighten the purse strings and reduce their outgoings, which is largely unhelpful for the small business owner.
Not everyone wants to sit at home and watch television however, and this is where Pubs and Clubs can take advantage of the domestic boredom inflicted on the population.
Pub trivia is a huge industry which attracts people to their local establishment on a weekly basis to sit back and socialise over a meal and a few drinks, and in general, it's free!
The usual method of running a Pub trivia night involves getting in a host to run the quiz and waving goodbye to a couple of hundred dollars for their trouble.
It's a lot of money, but by eliminating one element of the process you can cut your costs by 90%.
Don't hire a host.
Do it yourself.
I don't mean spend your life looking up questions, HOST the night yourself.
I started a company 3 years ago which supplies Trivia Packs to Pubs and Clubs and I currently supply quiz packs to people all over the world.
You already pay your staff, so why pay for someone else when you can get a current employee to host the trivia!
You wouldn't hire a Chef to serve your take-away pizza, so why hire a Host when you can just get the questions and host it yourself!
The reasons for doing so are;
* Save money!
* Create new regular customers/diners to your establishment
* Use someone familiar to your clientele
* People are more likely to buy dinner or a drink if they are actually inside your premises rather than in their lounge room.
* You can get your Trivia quickly and be sure it is 100% accurate !
* Researching Trivia is time consuming, get someone else to do it!
* Avoid arguments when someone doesn't agree with an answer "I didn't write it!" (Okay, I made that last one up...)
People are competitive, people are looking for inexpensive entertainment with the thrill of winning and people need an escape from the reality of life.
Pub Trivia is an excellent way to make money and attract new and regular customers.
It's all about getting the people in the door.
