Sure they had $9000 is liquor sales, but how much of that is actually going into their pocket? As some one who's owned a club and managed a few clubs/lounges in the past, that $9,000 might not be going that far. From the cost of staff, utilities, taxes, lease/mortgage, advertisement, insurance, the actual cost of the liquor and so on, that $300 might be cutting into the profits more than you think.
Was this just a one time gig, or was this a weekly event you did and promoted? If it was a weekly thing and they were consistently getting those kinds of numbers, then I would definitely ay negotiate for a better deal after you have shown yourself to be a proven commodity.
