Club days of operation.

Hiring GOOD employees is next to impossible, if you want to keep your quality on a high level.

Sometimes, it's just simple economics. If the costs outweigh the benefits of being open on those days of the week, doesn't make sense to do that.

Paying staff and other variable costs for days where little revenue is coming in adds up.

The Mons Venus in Tampa is only open Wed-Sun. And they are only open in the evenings and night. No dayshift.
Other than the masks, I had a great time.

Others may weigh in, but I know Cheetah has been staying closed until evening on some Mondays and Tuesdays...could be more or less.

I'm not surprised, nor hold it against clubs, for being open less hours/days during the pandemic.

Pre-pandemic, AFAIK there were no clubs in my area that didn't open 7-days-a-week; Miami/South-FL is a very-densely-populated area so I assume that helps in keeping clubs open 7-days-a-week including almost all of them having dayshifts (vs clubs in more rural areas) - whether it's SCs or not, I think it's more of the norm for most businesses to be open 7-days-a-week vs just a couple of days - IDK much about how SCs function behind-the-scenes, but there doesn't seem to be huge overhead; even if the club is closed a few days they are still paying the same amount of rent and still running the A/C, etc.

There were a couple of clubs in Palm Beach that closed a couple days a week. Some had "summer schedules" where they opened later in the day or not at all on some days, some were just never open.

My experience with them is they tend to not be the types of clubs that foster regular business, so they aren't my favorites. Playhouse & Rain/1152 in West Palm come to mind, they're both mostly open Thurs-Sat nights. Big crowds for a few hours, focus on being seen making it rain, that sort of thing. It's not universally true, Monroes & DD's (when it was open) were also closed on Sundays & maybe Mondays too, and Rhino opens late and/or closes on those days.

I really don't get it though. I'm not super familiar with the cost structure for employees, but I gotta figure the variable costs are significantly lower than the fixed ones. The Rent/Liquor & Entertainment licensing fees probably account for most costs. I can't see how a club can't make enough to cover employee costs even on slow days.

a friend of mine shared this with me ages ago.
if you are paying rent on a club monthly, then you should be open and making money every day you are allowed to be open, otherwise you are losing money.
in a non strip club environment, like a nightclub/dance club, having someone in charge of booking private parties and events for the days you're not open to the public is worth their weight in gold.
