You've gotten some good advice here already, everyone will have their own views/opinions so you will have to pull out the ones that will work best for you and your area.
I produce about 20 barrel runs a year. It's hard work and while everyone else is riding their horse, competing, visiting with friends or just watching the event, I'm working/producing making sure their show runs smoothly. I have a great crew that helps at my shows. We have pretty much got it down to science and produce a flawless show. Of course there is always the unexpected out of the ordinary that may and will happen. What do people want.??
A smooth ran show with low entry fees and good payback.
Don't be greedy. In the end, you want people happy and coming back to your shows. There's so much more I could add. Lots has been touched on already by previous posters. Do your homework. Best of luck.!
This is what we need in our area...badly. One series is run very well but high entry fees with a lot of added money. They other has lower entry fees with added money once a month but is not run smoothly and usually doesn't draw enough people to pay out more than 2D
(so a lot of people go home without a check
). Thank you for the ideas!

Lots of great points being made.
Depending on your area, if you can get your shows IBRA or NBHA sanctioned, that will bring in a lot of people as well. IBRA and NBHA both bring in lots of people, as the shows are listed on their websites, and folks running for points will be inclined to hit up your shows.
Good luck! Producing shows is a LOT of work, and I greatly appreciate those who do it and do it well. :
