Theater
Bill was contracted by the producers of the show to restructure the operations of the production and venue as an event space, develop the F&B program, and deliver a physical and virtual security plan. One of the challenges was ensuring timely guest arrivals to start the show on time. To address this, Bill implemented adjustments such as relocating show check-in areas to shorten the arrival process for 200+ guests. Additionally, he aimed to increase revenues by suggesting ticketing strategies that streamlined the online purchase process, resulting in improved ticket sales conversion. Furthermore, Bill enhanced F&B revenues and lowered beverage costs through his long-term relationships with vendors. He made numerous other adjustments to the operation to enhance its profitability.
