What would a bigger average bill be worth?
A 10% lift in the average bill — or moving retail from a few dollars a head to eight — sounds small. Across every visit, all year, it compounds into a number that usually beats chasing new clients.

Extra revenue from a bigger average bill
$36,000/year
Your average bill is $60.00. A 10% lift takes it to $66.00 — about $36,000 a year across your visits. Separately, lifting retail to $8 a head would add roughly $30,000 more.

Average bill = total revenue ÷ visits. The two scenarios are shown separately, not summed — pick the lever you'll actually pull. There's no universal AU average ticket; this is your own baseline vs target.
