Seeing your favorite club in a death spiral

One of my favorite clubs in the northeast has really been struggling recently. It is the only club for 20 miles in any direction and it has a decent population base surrounding it, so the club has some natural advantages. The problems are that (1) it is that it is competing with NYC and other more lucrative New Eng;land areas for talent; and (2) the area that it is located in has not enjoyed the same level of economic revival as those areas with lots of money coming from investment management firms and insurance companies, such as NYC, S. CT. and Hartford, so the club has not picked up as quickly as those located in more flush areas.
For many years they pieced together a surprisingly strong line-up by being very dancer friendly, thereby allowing them to attract and retain a lot of strong local talent. They also used to round out the line-up with a crew of Russian hotties from Brooklyn. But, for the reasons noted above, the club has not been able to recruit new talent recently. Compounding this is the fact that the Russians no longer find it worthwhile to make the long trip each night from Brooklyn. So what is left now is a core group of loyal, but aging talent working in the club. Some of these girls are still attractive (they used to be fuck-all hot), but virtually all of them are north of 30 and it is really starting to look like the MILF of the Month Club in there.
During my last few visits, I watched many guys come in for a short while, have a drink or two, and then scram. They now have a chicken or the egg type of problem, where they aren't going to get busier until they find newer talent, but they are going to have trouble keeping talent without sufficient customer flow.
I hope they are able to right the ship. It was a good club for me for a long time and I would like to return every so often, but if they keep going like this I doubt that they will survive too much longer.

Only club in a 20mile radius, it should do well.
