Vegas Strip Clubs

Clubs that enter this realm Make me want to leave and never come back. I wonder if anyone else experienced anything like this in Vegas and what, if anything, are clubs doing to bring these customers back. I’ve always talked with my buddies about opening our own club someday in Nevada because we would make it how we want it to be... very hot chicks and a relaxed atmosphere with no tricks.
Fancy bells and whistles at a club like caged up dancers, enclosed showers and swings are a tried - but - not - method of being original. I once saw a larger dancer break one of these swings ( luckily she wasn’t hurt), and I felt awful for her but couldn’t help wondering if more of this is happening all over the country. With prostitution being illegal in most of the country, strip clubs are trying to attract men in other ways and it’s just not working.
So my question really is.... what would you do if you had the opportunity to open a strip club? Where would it be, how big, any gimmicks? Or just a plain ole gogo bar with hot girls who are free to be themselves without any silly games?

If I have hot girls, they will come. And when they come they will buy beer. Now I’m no manager I like clubs like this.
The big problem with a lot of Vegas clubs comes from management trying to get between the customer and his dancer of choice, from trying to add fees to the dances (VIP drinks), or not letting low key interactions happen ($20 floor dances). Some clubs try to regulate the dance too much which sours my enjoyment of those clubs.
Also - most of the strip-club clientele, more-so in Vegas, are not regular/educated SCers and many don't know any better and do the strip-club thing once-in-a-blue-moon so they are more easily-taken, and as tourists and infrequent/uneducated SCers are more apt to just accept what the club has to offer.
Many experienced SCers are not down for the Vegas SC experience - but experienced SCers are a minority of SCers probably more-so in Vegas.
But strip-clubs are a seedy and thus different type of biz, so not sure the same-rules apply to strip-club bizarro businesses as to regular businesses.
I'm not a business-guy nor do I think I have that talent - it's one thing to look at things from a custy's POV and think what would be best - but it's probably another thing trying to actually run/own a strip-club and make-a-profit/be-successful.
To me - the most important thing is for the dancers to see it as worth dancing at the club - happy dancers are the most-important thing for a fun club worth visiting - I would try to come up w/ a system where it wouldn't be as bit of a risk proposition for dancers - i.e. not having them pay a huge house-fee given there are no custies in the club or spending custies - i.e. come up w/ a system that the club makes $$$ off the dancers if the dancers are making $$$ - i.e. have a low house-fee (like $20) and then increase it from their to a particular amount based on how well she did - but this may just be Robin-Hood type dreaming and perhaps not feasible/implementable.
I would also try to keep costs down for the PLs and try to make the $$$ on volume/repeat-business vs nickel-and-diming or overcharging PLs.
I would think the biggest headwind to providing a good-experience is often local-ordinances that kinda handcuff how a strip-club is ran. I also think many owners/managers may not be SC-enthusiasts themselves and thus don't make good decisions that will better the custy-experience.
