Make sure you give them value for money and you do your homework on the artists you are booking. Keep to middle of the road performers in the beginning. Your audience are coming to be entertained whether they pay £3 or £15 to get in.
A smile on the face of the person greeting people and genuiness of wanting to look after your customers and your performers.
Over time, hopefully your audience will begin to trust you and keep on coming.
