Leave some samples and ask them what they want in it. Alternatively, trial it and see how it goes.

This was my main concern for getting into the business - the decline of pubs is only going to continue and although others will always open in their place I't certenly isn't going to get any easier.

So far I have been tryingt o ballance out pub sites with other venues however the revenue that the other sites seem to earn is tiny in comparison - in fairness I don't have many sites compeared to some on these boards but I'm thinking I am going to need a hell of a lot of machines before I start earning any money.

I am thinking diversity of machines/sites (as well as other products) is the only way forward!
