The venue is inclusive of a nightclub, a pub, & food service.
Established by the owner many years ago, in a suburb just outside of the CBD,. It has an existing steady patronage while identifying & promoting alternative venue usage opportunities to other/new potential clients.
The venue opens around 60 nights a year, allowing for minimal owner involvement yet high annual turnover & profits. The owner plans in advance, advertising and coordinating the function nights, & ensuring stock & staff are in place.
On an open night, the owner will open & close the venue, while staff will manage the clients & systems/processes, with an emphasis on entrance fees, music, drinks, & food.
On the day preceding & following the event preparations, cleaning & re-stocking will be managed by the owner.
On the other days of the year, the owner unfortunately has to play golf & enjoy his time off!
The business controls all money coming in through a computerised system & camera's, which reduces any chance of pilfering by staff. This system is then fed into a management control system that tracks income & expenses on a nightly, eventally, and monthly basis.
These management accounts are available monthly in arrears & have been utilised within this report.
