     Each participating club will be licensed to conduct the promotion for (8) consecutive weeks, seven preliminary rounds and a grand final contest on week eight. The first place winner from each of the seven preliminary rounds will receive a minimum cash award of one hundred dollars ($100.00) and second place will receive a minimum cash award of fifty dollars ($50.00), both provided by Licensee or the participating sponsor.

The facility can accommodate 1500 and features private party booths and VIP space with bottle service.

 BENEFITS TO THE VENUE OPERATOR

America’s Lip Sync Star National Search™ was designed to provide the venue operator with a unique opportunity to receive free publicity and build customer traffic on a slow night over the eight-week contest period. Under normal circumstances (with an appropriate advertising budget), standing room only (SRO) audiences can be obtained by week number five (5) and should hold at peak levels thereafter, provided the event is promoted and conducted according to the national guidelines.

Once you have established SRO the first eight week contest cycle the next cycle  should begin (week one) with a significant crowd without any additional external advertising.

Few events exist that offers the opportunity to provide a highly successful entertainment promotion and enjoy a low risk profile at the same time. America’s Lip Sync Star National Search™ offers a low risk profile and high energy entertainment as a routine. The benefits are: 

·               Attract New Customers

·               Increased Revenues

·               Winners Represent Your Venue in all Appearances

·               Attract Capacity Crowds Consistently

·               Attract Free Press and Media Exposure

·               Increase Traffic on Other Nights of the Week

·               All Contest Materials Supplied

Clearly, the attendance of the contestants, their friends, supporters, curious spectators and media exposure will greatly increase revenues on the night of the event, particularly if the contest is held on one of the traditionally slower nights of the week.

An added benefit to venue operators is the entertainment possibilities of your contest winners performing on other nights of the week. These lip sync performances will not only promote contest night, but will draw additional customers on other nights of the week just to see their favorite look-a-like performers on your stage. Usually these performers will be happy to come and entertain your customers for the experience and exposure.
