More Music for Your Money: Finding the Right Jukebox Plan for Your Venue

Understanding that no two venues are the same, Hire Jukebox are committed to tailoring our jukebox services to each venue to find the solution that will maximise returns for the venue.

While cost is naturally the first thing many pub or bar owners think about when it comes to choosing a jukebox for their establishment, it doesn’t necessarily represent the best value for money.

Jukebox technology has evolved dramatically in recent years, creating a huge degree of variety in the jukeboxes available, from simple, economical options with around 5000 tracks to cutting-edge background music systems offering over seven million. These high-end machines may sound like a luxury, but in fact the combination of an extensive track library and engaging extra features can have a significant impact on jukebox takings.

Connected digital jukeboxes like the latest VenueHub model, in particular, provide a vital boost to cash box levels. Since new chart releases are automatically added to the jukebox library on a frequent basis, music content remains fresh and encourages regulars to return to the jukebox on each visit.

Simple, intuitive touchscreen browsing and playlist personalisation options to cater tracklists to a profile of the pub’s consumers can also increase a jukebox’s popularity. After all, what might have the cash rolling in for a fashionable bar could turn customers off completely at a traditional pub.

Though bar owners usually appreciate the value of these features, they often still believe that installation fees or rental costs might prohibit them from reaping the numerous benefits of a top-of-the-range jukebox. Thankfully, alongside the traditional weekly rental fee option where a landlord keeps one hundred per cent of their profits, Hire Jukebox also offer a profit share alternative. In this instance, a venue owner can substitute a regular fee for an agreed proportion of jukebox takings.
