You guys should do a radio show on how Vegas casinos can win back their business. I know it's challenging, but you already have a couple of good ideas:
Put in more progressives, with at least a 1% meter, and don't forget to take the meter amount out of the paytable so it's at least revenue neutral for the casino. And if you still don't like the hold, take some more out of the paytable, leave the progressive meter alone. The progressive meter is the hook that brings in business, the paytable is where you make your rake.
Run more promotions that involve player competition: max coin in, max royals, max taxables, and so on. Even something as simple as sweetening up (adding money to) a progressive pot to get it started, that's basically a competition to see who can get the first jackpot.
