Re: January Internext Announced
Exactly.
AVN is obviously stuck riding a couple of bad long term contract decisions. Unfortunately, in these days of ROI, I'm not going to subsidize their bad decision making. I'm going to do what's right for me and my business.
So Palms agreed to cut price in half for the rooms, unfortunately that still leaves them priced at over twice the going rate for that level of accomodations.
I left Palms during the day last year after there was no place to sit at center bar and we convened court at the food court. Hey, if you cant buy people drinks, most people like milkshakes too! But that quickly got old with the steady stream of local grandmas coming in for their free pulls. Though I was amused watching people drop off small children at the baby pound they have there. Sorry, just wasn't conducive to doing porn business when I gotta worry about offending someone's mom or grandma.
Came back once at night for one of the parties only to find that every seat in the entire club was "reserved". No one was sitting there mind you, but they were reserved and the club was very quick to make sure you didn't sit in any of them. After 10 minutes of that, I left and never came back onsite.
Had lots of dinners and fun offsite with friends and folks i WANTED to see. AVN actually made it more difficult for me to do business than it was for me to facilitate it myself.
