Do You Want to Increase Gaming Revenues in Your Casino? Food and Beverage in a casino is about building and facilitating gaming revenues not making food Attract, Retain and Reward Customers A programmed loss is not a bad thing. You just can’t make it up in volume, only in increased gaming revenues The days of the $1.99 buffet are gone but not the concept of using casino food and beverage as a tool to attract and retain customers. Portions should be larger, quality higher and pricing lower than competitors. All of this is for the purpose of increasing gaming revenues. Note: the goal is not to see how many customers you can feed and how much money you can lose! Price points should be set to attract gaming customers with the potential to stay and play. Rewards should be strongly involved in discounting customers who are players. There is a specific science to tuning the food and beverage operations at your casino to maximize the gaming returns. Consultants can work with your marketing, gaming and food and beverage department to arrive at the strategy that will get you the greatest results. This is what we do.
