Game Changers, Clubs in SL - p3
then watched our script use. We
don't ask people to change their
avie to run less scripts like some
clubs, instead we adjust our stuff to
accommodate them.
NVM: You, ladies, are not just
owners; you are also entertainers
and you all know first hand that
clubbers do not really feel a need to
show that “Linden Love” while
expec ng to be entertained. Why is
clubbing one of the only S L
industries where the public expects
you all to work for free (or
peanuts), yet s ll bring them
awesome events?
SHINE: I think it is because people
figure that the place will s ll be
there whether they p or not,
people don't realize the cost is not
just behind the er, but to pay the
singers, to make sure your staff is
pped well, the gi s, the contests,
the equipment and to always be
able to offer new things. I think
they just need a peek at the real
cost and the me and effort that we
put in to making sure they have
somewhere to hangout that they
like.
CARI: I'm not really sure why. I
was always a good pper whenever
we would go out, no ma er where
it was and that was even before we
opened our own place. Now that I
do know what it costs to run a
place, I'm an even be er pper.
The er, DJ stream, and sploders –
it's not free. I guess they figure it's
not like a RL club where they have
to pay for drinks so they really don't
think about it too much.
ROXY: If the crowd appreciates the
music, they will p. But some
people expect to be entertained on
this game for free, and we are not
selling products, we are selling a
service. I believe they think clubs
run on fresh air :).
NVM: It has been suggested by the
CCN groups that, by showing clubs
like yours to outside companies, a
new revenue stream can be created
for club owners who bring their “Agame.” How would you feel about
becoming the poster kids, as CCN
Media Partners, for other clubs and
first-life companies to check out?
ROXY: Would love it! We can bring
lots revenue for Real-life
businesses. It's a whole new arena
of poten al customers! And it
brings together people
