Business is Expensive!!

On top of all of the direct expenses, we spend a lot of money on hockey games and football tailgates. These things are fun, but also expensive. Taking clients to a hockey game costs about $300. The football tailgates are about $1000. We use the events to entertain clients. They like it, trust me.

22 Hockey games (my share) and 7 football games. Whoa!

Does anyone have other "entertainment" type ideas that are less expensive?

Had to look at your profile because with those high end marketing you must be in the big leagues.

I have taken clients sailing but that's a $500 day for 6-8 people.

Unfortunately most of our clients are bankers and attorneys so we have to do high end events with them. The upside is that they tend to be repeat clients. Ideally we would like to find entertainment that allows for one on one contact for a lower dollar amount.

Not necessarily big leagues, but our prospects like to go to sporting events, etc. Maybe it is keeping up with the Smiths, but those darn Smiths have these things for their clients.

Here, in New York, we have the Yankees, Mets, Rangers, Islanders, Knicks, Jets and Broadway tickets. The Giants and Devils are actually in New Jersey.
