How long should I be waiting before the first expansion of my arena.. should I wait until I'm close to a sell-out, or should I expand now to get some revenue from something like a Luxury box or additional courtside seating? I know each luxury box will take about 20 weeks to pay for itself if you keep the price at 800 per game (assuming it sells each of those 20 games)...

Most commonly, bleacher seats are the seats that have a hard time selling out. So, I believe that it would be a good profit for your team in the long run if you expand anything BESIDES bleacher seats.

That makes perfect sense... do you know how many lower teir, courtside, and luxury box seats a very new team can support? I know that right now those three are selling out every game, which means expanding is a good idea, along with possibly raising prices on them.

I have:

500 LT
60 CS
2 LB

I've sold those out every game. Maybe there's a link to another post that can help us out...?

I have 12 LB but have only 5 get sold the last 4 games even though my total attendance has been rising steadily. So I'm not so sure about your previous conclusion.

psycho if you just sell the half of your luxury box, i recommend to reduce the prices radically.

For somebody, i think you should act the dfferent way build extra seats or make then more expenses(or both) - i would say in the optimum case you have prices where you sell 99,9% becuase it is nealy impossible to find then and hard to know how many visitors can come in when you are to cheap try to fill your arena about 95% after an win(the two cheap categories are highly affected from the last game).

I read some where that for every 1000 seat you should have 1 LB...You only have 6000 seats... That could be where your problem is... peace

thats depending much on price ;)

If you are succesfull i recommend more bleachers, if you are medium or unsuccesfull build more from the too expensiv categories
