Episode Description
In this week’s edition of the Memory Makers Podcast, Russ Van Natta is joined by John Keys, Sales Director at CenterEdge Software, to share revenue strategies for today’s FEC. As part of the Amusement 360 Partnership series, John provides real examples like simplifying group bookings, launching After Dark events, and introducing premium cocktails to attract adult guests.
Plus, we talk about taking inspiration from other industries, leveraging vendor partnerships for hidden opportunities, empowering staff to improve guest experiences, and sending teams on scavenger hunts to study competitors.
Key Takeaways
- Small Changes Create Big Impact – Simple adjustments like bundling group packages, streamlining school event bookings, or hosting adult-focused After Dark events boost revenue and guest satisfaction.
- Learn from Others and Stay Curious – Draw ideas from competitors, other industries, and vendor partners to keep operations fresh. Regular partner check-ins reveal underused tools and strategies.
- Empower Staff to Spot Opportunities – When teams view the facility through the guest’s eyes or explore competitors with a clear goal, they identify easy wins and stay engaged.
- Prioritize Consistent Innovation – Continuous, intentional tweaks based on guest feedback, staff input, and vendor insights drive lasting improvements without massive overhauls.
