It’s no secret that pubs and bars in the UK are struggling, and that many have been forced to close their doors. Challenges include rising alcohol taxes, changes to business rates and a new generation that doesn’t drink as much. That’s the narrative at least, and it’s why CAMRA continues its commendable ‘Save the Local’ campaign.



However, a funny thing happened in 2019. For the first time in a decade, the number of pubs and bars in the UK actually went up instead of down – according to Official Labour Market Statistics from the ONS/Nomis.



Between 2010-2018, the UK had a net loss of 5,855 pubs, an average of 732 per year. However, there was a net gain of 320 pubs in 2019, the first time that the number of pubs in the UK has increased for a decade



We believe that pubs and bars are of vital importance to UK society and its economy. It’s therefore imperative that we analyse these market statistics and try to understand what they mean to the licensed trade industry. Is this increase a statistical anomaly or does it signpost a reversal of fortunes for the wider industry? Perhaps it is evidence that pubs and bars have started to adjust to economic and cultural changes in the UK?&nbsp;&nbsp;



In this post we analyse pub growth, the regions and countries experiencing the highest net growth (and loss), the types of pubs growing fastest and some of the likely determining factors. We also look at why the upward trend doesn’t extend to licensed clubs, which continue to fall in number.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Pubs are on the rise</h4>



The UK has lost 732 pubs per year on average since 2010, so 2019’s net gain of 320 represents a swing of nearly 1,000 compared to previous years. This is quite a remarkable turnaround, especially given the systematic year decline this decade and numerous challenges facing pub operators. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-style-default"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="347" src="https://stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-1024x347.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-13709" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-1024x347.jpg 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-300x102.jpg 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-768x260.jpg 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-150x51.jpg 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-592x201.jpg 592w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-177x60.jpg 177w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100-266x90.jpg 266w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/ANNUAL_CHANGE_IN_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-7@2x-100.jpg 1051w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



Sadly England is almost solely accountable for this growth, which is not seen elsewhere. It saw a net gain of +345 compared to Scotland (-5) Wales (-25) and Northern Ireland (+5) which were all relatively stable. By region, the South East has the most pubs (5,340) but only grew by 10 in 2019. Much faster growth can be witnessed in the North East (+85), followed closely by the West Midlands (+80).



By town/city, Bristol, Newcastle, Southampton and South-end-on-sea all boast an extra 15 pubs in 2019 (the most in the UK). In London, pub numbers only increased in 10 out of 33 boroughs.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Pub Growth in the UK 2019 Map</h4>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Pub-Growth-UK-Map.png" alt="Pub growth UK Map" class="wp-image-13714" width="437" height="697"/></figure></div>



Large pub groups are driving the most growth in the sector. The biggest increase (+205) comes from pub enterprises with a turnover of £500,000-£1,000,000, and the second biggest increase (+125) was in the £1m-£2m bracket. By contrast, the UK had a net loss of 55 for pub enterprises with a turnover of less than £100,000&nbsp;



These stats demonstrate the dominance of big pub chains and suggests that larger and more profitable pubs may be more resilient to negative market forces – such as rising business rates and alcohol duties – and are therefore less likely to shut down. It may also be the case that there is more investment in larger properties with the potential to drive more revenue – while smaller venues stay shut once they close.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="884" height="315" src="https://stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-13711" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100.jpg 884w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100-300x107.jpg 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100-768x274.jpg 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100-150x53.jpg 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100-592x211.jpg 592w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100-168x60.jpg 168w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2018-2019_L_V_S_PUB_NUMBERSAsset-8@2x-100-253x90.jpg 253w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 884px) 100vw, 884px" /></figure>



We calculate that the growth of pubs in the UK between 2018 and 2019 may have created an extra 8,975 jobs nationwide.** Using a similar formula, we calculate that pubs made an extra £740,875,000 in 2019 vs 2018 (cash turnover not adjusted for inflation)



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">The Source of Growth</h4>



As to why pub numbers are going up, additional analysis suggests that it has little to do with people drinking more. According to the same dataset, we can reveal that licensed clubs remain on the decline – there were 7,420 in 2019 vs 7,610 in 2018, down from 10,000 in 2010***. Likewise, analysis from the British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA) and Marston’s says beer sales volumes dropped to 3.6 billion pints in 2019 compared with a peak of 5.7 billion pints in January 2007.



In the same report, the BBPA noted a rise in craft and world beers, growing by 194,000 and 218,000 pints respectively. The sale of these premium beers may explain how pub numbers were able to grow in 2019. Likewise, it appears that many pubs and bars are coping better with industry challenges. Many have embraced innovation and new revenue streams. More pubs now offer food, accommodation and a greater variety of weekday events to maximise profits. Pubs can no longer afford to rely on the same old regulars to keep coming through the door.&nbsp;



We are seeing more pubs utilising technology, data and marketing automation to better understand their customers and their drinking habits. This means being able to generate more revenue during traditionally quiet periods and changing their operations/business hours based on how their customers behave.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;



“The pub trade has had very little to celebrate in the last decade, but I’m sure they’ll raise a glass to these new numbers,” said Patrick Clover, Stampede founder and CEO. “Pubs have a hugely important place in our society both socially as well as economically, being one of the UK’s biggest employers. The reduction of pubs over the last decade has been heart-breaking, following devastating changes to business taxes and alcohol duties, but I hope these figures signpost a reversal of fortunes. Indeed, we saw our local district of Edinburgh increase the number of pubs significantly this year, and I like to think we played our part in that. Stampede’s aim is to become indispensable to every pub, bar, hotel and restaurant owner in the UK. We want to bring the heart back into these beloved venues that are at the centre of our communities.”&nbsp;



* There are now a total of 39,145 pubs in the UK – based on businesses classified by the Standard Industrial Classification code 56302 : Public houses and bars. Figures are rounded to the nearest five by ONS to prevent identification, meaning these are not exact numbers



**We calculated this figure based on the net difference of pubs multiplied by their number of employees. For example, there were an extra 240 pubs with between 20-49 employees: 240 x 35 [the median figure between 20-19] = 8,400 jobs. Other employment size bands saw a net decrease, thus creating a net job loss, but they have still been factored into the 8,975 jobs estimate. N.B the ONS rounds it figures to the nearest 5 to avoid disclosure, so this figure is only a guide and should be taken with a pinch of salt.&nbsp;

Raising The Bar – A Stampede Report

Connect with your customers and enhance your marketing

Stampede

Is your kids&#8217; menu beige, boring and mainly consisting of chicken nuggets and chips? <a href="https://kam-media.co.uk/family-dining-opportunity/">65% of parents think that restaurants should be more inventive when it comes to their special children&#8217;s offerings</a>. After all, those kids will be the customer of the future, so better get things right early on. We&#8217;ve got some insight to share on what restaurants can do to appeal to families.



<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-standing-out-in-a-crowded-sector">Standing Out In A Crowded Sector</h4>



As mid-market restaurant brands fall by the wayside, many have accused chains of being too samey. There&#8217;s no denying that plenty of brands share similar menus and price points. So how can those targeting the family market differentiate and win family diners away from competitors? 



The obvious answer is to take the time to understand and serve customers better. The little things really do make a difference. 



According to recent research by <a href="https://kam-media.co.uk/family-dining-opportunity/">KAM Media</a>, families make up 57% of restaurants&#8217; revenue. With children playing an important part in deciding where to eat out for over half of the families. Cater well for kids and their parents will reward you with their loyalty. 



We spoke to Lisa O&#8217;Keeffe, Senior Brand and Content Manager at <a href="https://www.dayoutwiththekids.co.uk/">Day Out with The Kids</a> to find out what families look for when dining out in the UK. She confirmed that nailing customer service is the key to unlocking loyalty for family diners.



She told us: &#8220;Dining out together is something our families do together up to four times a month, with a large percentage regularly heading back to tried and tested favourites for one simple reason: the service. There&#8217;s nothing more stressful for parents than heading to a restaurant with the kids that simply isn&#8217;t geared up for the real and honest side of family dining, even if they advertise themselves as family-friendly.&#8221;



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-making-children-your-focus">Making Children Your Focus</h4>



You can do kids eat for a £1 or even boast &#8216;kids eat free&#8217; to get customers through the door. But as Lisa explains it&#8217;s not all about money. Gearing up properly to serve child visitors and putting parents at ease makes it easier for them to spend their cash with you.



&#8220;Our families tell us they&#8217;re often worried about their kids being too noisy, or too messy,&#8221; said Lisa. &#8220;Any restaurant that can help to put parents’ minds at ease and be totally accepting of both these things is certainly likely to be a hit.&#8221;



&#8220;Play areas, activity packs, bringing the kids&#8217; meals out first and space around the table for things like pushchairs are all simple things to implement, but are so often overlooked.&#8221; In fact, <a href="https://www.bighospitality.co.uk/Article/2015/10/30/75-of-families-eating-out-in-restaurants-more-regularly">63% of parents prefer restaurants that offer activity packs</a> for their kids.



A pushchair friendly floor layout, plenty of high chairs and kid-friendly cutlery and cups, are practical ways to serve this group of customers before anyone sits down. These initial moments before your guests even browse a menu are crucial in reassuring families that they are in the right place. 



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-using-wifi-marketing">Using WiFi Marketing</h4>



At Stampede we work with businesses to ensure their <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/wifi/">Guest WiFi</a> is set up to help them serve their family customers better. Context is everything when it comes to understanding customers&#8217; dining priorities. 



If someone signs into WiFi you can ask if they are visiting with children and show them relevant offers. You can add this information into your wider service strategy and use your insights to create <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/drive-revenue-and-loyalty-with-personalisation-part-i/">personalised marketing campaigns</a>. Knowing what proportion of custom comes from families and when they visit can help you to make informed decisions and grow your business. 



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-employees-that-make-a-visit-special">Employees That Make A Visit Special</h4>



You&#8217;re all set up for family-friendly service thanks to the great floor design, menu and entertainment, but to really nail things you need to excel with customer service training. Your employees need to understand the context and priorities behind guests&#8217; visits. 



Is a family looking for a quick and convenient bite to eat after school? Perhaps they&#8217;re hoping for a stress-free trip to celebrate a family member&#8217;s birthday? Encourage waiting staff to build personalisation into their service approach for great table service. They should be able to signpost useful information quickly. 



This means doing things like:



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Asking about the reason behind the visit</li><li>Asking about/providing high chairs</li><li>Offering activity packs, crayons or information on your WiFi</li><li>Asking parents if they&#8217;d like children&#8217;s food brought out first and letting them know how long food will take, updating if necessary</li><li>Letting parents know where toilets, baby change, play areas are</li></ul>



It can also be helpful to let parents know if the kitchen can pack food to go. This may prompt parents to order dessert to eat at home later. It can also provide reassurance if a tired toddler meltdown means they want to head home earlier than expected. Omit, the key is to be attentive and offer fast efficient service without rushing diners. 



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-make-your-menu-malleable">Make Your Menu Malleable</h4>



A kid’s menu that offers good value signals that you&#8217;re set up for younger guests. However, despite what the adverts would have you believe, not every kid likes to eat chicken nuggets or spaghetti in tomato sauce. Some do. But others like to have exactly what&#8217;s on Mummy and Daddy&#8217;s plate. And while it&#8217;s great to have a balanced menu that encourages little ones to try new things, it&#8217;s also pretty smart to cater to what kids want to eat. This is something many restaurants are starting to pick up on. 



Lisa told us: &#8220;When it comes to the menu, we&#8217;re also seeing a growing number of chain restaurants implementing a &#8216;pick your own&#8217; approach to help meet the needs of fussier eaters.&#8221;



&#8220;The ability to create your own pairings makes it much more likely you can rustle up a meal for every child. But it&#8217;s also great when kitchens can be really flexible or even something as simple as plating up. Carrots stood in hummus rather than on the side can, and has, been the difference between a meal a kid will or won&#8217;t eat!&#8221;



Do you let diners mix and match starters and sides to keep kids happy? Do your serving staff know what type of requests your kitchen can accommodate? If you can magic up their real family favourites and keep kids munching long enough, parents could snatch extra moments of conversation. They might even order dessert.

How to Nail Customer Service for Families [Updated 2022]

Marketing automation on its own is powerful. However, when backed up with a <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-create-a-hospitality-crm-strategy-that-drives-results">Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system</a> hospitality businesses can take their revenue and customer loyalty to the next level.



This clever tech pairing comes with significant opportunities to engage and retain customers, drive conversions and significantly boost profit margins.



In this blog post, we&#8217;ll explore what marketing automation fueled by a CRM system means and review some best practices as well as real-life examples.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-is-marketing-automation">What is marketing automation?</h2>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-1-1-definition">1.1. Definition</h4>



Marketing automation is a tool for businesses to streamline their marketing efforts and effectively communicate with their customers using personalisation and targeted messaging.



The driver behind this automation is customer data, which is collected and stored in the CRM solution. Many <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing">CRMs</a> now include a marketing automation feature, allowing for easier campaign management and tracking.



Emails and SMS campaigns are sent out automatically using pre-defined triggers, such as specific customer characteristics or interactions.&nbsp;



Plus, automation saves staff a lot of time and also reduces the risk of human error.&nbsp;



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-1-2-trigger-based-campaign-examples">1.2. Trigger-based campaign examples</h4>



Here are some trigger-based campaign examples hospitality venues should implement.



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>New newsletter subscribers &#8211; a simple welcome message drives engagement and encourages revisits.</li>



<li>Win-back lost customers &#8211; attract them back with a special deal.</li>



<li>Birthday surprise offer &#8211; shows that you value your customers and helps strengthen your relationship.</li>



<li>Online review booster &#8211; an automated post-visit review request email will keep guest feedback flowing.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>



The required customer data for those campaigns can easily be extracted from the CRM through segmentation.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-4-key-reasons-to-implement-marketing-automation">4 key reasons to implement marketing automation</h2>



Marketing automation benefits hospitality businesses in a number of ways.



Firstly, it allows nurturing customers towards long-term loyalty through personalised and targeted content. Customers are more likely to feel valued and appreciated when the messages they receive resonate with their specific interests and needs.&nbsp;



Secondly, personalised emails have proven to be more relevant and therefore have a higher conversion rate. In fact, they have a <a href="https://www.campaignmonitor.com/blog/email-marketing/how-personalization-and-automation-can-supercharge-email-conversions/">2.5 times higher click-through rate</a> than a generic email.



Thirdly, marketing automation also provides businesses with additional sales and upsell opportunities based on historic customer interaction in-venue and online.



Finally, once the setup is complete, automated campaigns don’t require much work as they run automatically. This allows your team to focus on other areas of the business.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-best-practice-tips">Best practice tips</h2>



Marketing automation has become an increasingly important tool in the hospitality industry. However, to be truly effective, some best practices should be considered.&nbsp;



Firstly, input from various data sources through your CRM is crucial. By collating data from your tech tools, such as <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/wifi">Guest Wifi</a>, <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/loyalty">loyalty scheme</a> and <a href="https://stampede.ai/get-bookings">table booking platform</a>, you can build a comprehensive customer profile.



Furthermore, to make the best use of the data, it&#8217;s important to segment it into distinct customer groups. To make it easier, use the pre-defined data segments provided by CRM solutions.



Finally, operators should regularly check their triggers to ensure their automation work effectively and that customers still receive relevant and timely communications.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-how-hospitality-operators-succeed-with-marketing-automation">How hospitality operators succeed with marketing automation</h2>



Here are some real-life examples from hospitality businesses that have used their CRM to automate their marketing processes.



<a href="https://stampede.ai/customer/bar-tonic">Bar Tonic</a> has seen astonishing results from their automated birthday emails, offering customers a martini on the house. So far, they’ve generated over £10,000 return visit ROI from it.&nbsp;



Another marketing automation usage example comes from the <a href="https://stampede.ai/customer/signature-pub-group">Signature Pub Group</a>. By automating their review request emails, they’ve managed to collect more than 12,000 reviews in a short period of time.



Marketing automation not only increases sales but is also a real time-saver. For example, <a href="https://stampede.ai/customer/birdhouse-london">Birdhouse London</a> is able to 2 hours per week since implementing it.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Takeaway</h2>



There is no doubt that marketing automation are an essential tool for any hospitality operator that wants to increase customer loyalty.



By laying down the foundation with a powerful CRM system and then leveraging it with personalised messages tailored to specific customer segments, they can make sure that their guests are engaged and keep coming back.&nbsp;

3 Clever Ways To Use SMS Campaigns To Scale Up Your Marketing ROI [Updated 2023]

For decades, hospitality businesses have trusted in the power of human labour to keep their venues running. Artificial Intelligence (AI) promises more efficient operations and better-personalised experiences for their customers.&nbsp;



But while AI has comes with huge benefits &#8211; from automating mundane tasks to better understanding customers’ needs &#8211; it also poses potential drawbacks.&nbsp;



Before you decide whether or not integrating AI into your hospitality operations is right for you, take some time to consider both the pros and cons we lay down in this blog article.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-how-ai-is-used-in-the-hospitality-industry">How AI is used in the hospitality industry</h2>



AI is being used in a variety of ways in the hospitality industry, from chatbots that assist with reservations to orders to automated systems that streamline check-in and check-out processes and marketing and sales automation.



It also comes with the ability to predict customer needs and preferences, which can help with recommendations, personalised service and upsell.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-key-advantages-of-using-ai-in-hospitality">Key advantages of using AI in hospitality</h2>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">1. Increased operational efficiency and productivity</h4>



With AI, businesses are able to streamline their operational and administrative processes and automate tasks. This allows for a significant increase in productivity and better resource management.



Moreover, with less manual handling required, there is a reduced chance of human error. Especially when dealing with customer data or uploading and updating spreadsheets, which can be prone to mistakes.



Marketing teams can massively improve their efforts with AI. For example, use data insights to build defined customer segments. The foundation for email and SMS campaigns that really resonate with customers and drive them back to their venue.&nbsp;



With clever <a href="https://stampede.ai/downloads/hospitality-marketing-automation-playbook">campaign automation</a>, operators can additionally save valuable time and staff can focus on more crucial tasks.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">2. Reduced costs</h4>



With the rise of AI, there are new opportunities for hospitality businesses to cut costs.



Routine and repetitive tasks can easily be automated, saving on labour costs. Besides, by implementing AI, operators can bypass ongoing staff shortages.



It also allows for more efficient and accurate decision-making backed by real data insights. So without relying on guesswork, operators can ultimately reduce unnecessary costs in the long run.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">3. Improved customer experience</h4>



The key to retaining customers is to ensure that they have a memorable experience when interacting with your brand. This is where the use of AI comes in.&nbsp;



Businesses can create a much more personalised and tailored experience that is based on customers’ preferences and behaviours.



Moreover, AI can help to connect all of a customer&#8217;s interactions with a brand across various digital channels. This contributes towards a more unified and seamless online experience.&nbsp;



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">4. Better forecasting</h4>



In today&#8217;s fast-paced environment, having accurate and timely forecasts can mean the difference between success and failure.&nbsp;



AI has the ability to analyse vast amounts of customer data in a second and provide insights into revenue opportunities that may have otherwise been missed.&nbsp;



Perhaps even more importantly, AI can predict market trends, giving businesses an edge in their strategic planning. By leveraging the preciseness of forecasting, businesses can make smarter decisions, allocate resources more effectively, and ultimately, increase their bottom line.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-main-disadvantages-of-using-ai-in-hospitality">Main disadvantages of using AI in hospitality</h2>



Although AI has the potential to take business operations to the next level, it comes with its share of disadvantages that should also be considered.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">&nbsp;1. Impersonal service</h4>



One major issue with AI is the loss of the human touch. Whether it&#8217;s automated customer service systems or self-checkout kiosks, these rather impersonal experiences can negatively affect customer satisfaction.



AI systems can never fully replace human intuition and judgement, which can also lead to errors and inaccuracies in service.&nbsp;



No doubt, the human element is vital to creating a warm and welcoming environment. It&#8217;s through genuine connections with staff that customers feel valued and it&#8217;s those connections that keep them coming back time and time again.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">2. System failure</h4>



Running a hospitality business is a complex task that requires a lot of moving parts to function well. The success of operations depends heavily on all of the systems working properly.



Unfortunately, when these systems fail, they can cause serious disruption to the entire operation. Rooms may be double-booked, orders may be lost or misplaced and customers may be left waiting for extended periods of time.



As a result, unsatisfied customers and negative reviews can quickly pile up, causing lasting damage to the business.&nbsp;



To mitigate the risk of system failure, it’s important for hospitality operators to have a plan in place in case their AI tool breaks down. By being proactive and prepared, they can ensure a seamless experience for their customers.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">3. Technological limitations</h4>



The hospitality industry requires technology tools that cater to their particular needs. Customer interactions happen both online and offline. Generic AI tools might not align with their specific requirements and might therefore create more work than taking off the workload if not set up properly.



Even with the right technology tools to hand the various systems used need to interact and talk to each other. Without those <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/5-common-data-integration-flaws-in-hospitality-tech">integrations</a>, the data flow is disconnected and operators are not able to generate a single customer view.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">4. High implementation costs</h4>



The implementation of these tools often comes at a high cost, making them unaffordable for smaller venues. This situation has forced operators to carefully weigh the pros and cons before deciding if it is worth investing in AI tools.&nbsp;



While AI can bring about significant returns, it may not be a worthwhile investment for all businesses. However, as technology continues to advance, we may see a rise in more cost-effective solutions that cater to a range of budgets.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-summary">Summary</h2>



In conclusion, there are pros and cons of using AI in the hospitality industry that should be taken into account.&nbsp;



Technology can be used to save money, increase efficiency, improve customer experience and enable more precise forecasting. However, many operators are still struggling with the lack of human element when it comes to dealing with customers and their needs.&nbsp;



Furthermore, technological limitations should not be disregarded as they might also cause certain problems when it comes to adapting AI to existing processes.&nbsp;



Finally, before making any investments in AI, operators should evaluate the costs associated with them as this could highly affect their financial situation.&nbsp;



All factors taken into consideration, applying AI technology correctly can prove extremely beneficial for restaurants and the hospitality industry in general.

Like many industries, it can be tough to drum up repeat trade in the restaurant business. Especially with the ever-changing high street, the cold British weather not to mention competition from larger chains. The good news is that there are many ways you can create repeat business for your small business. Even better, there are many free restaurant promotions ideas. 







In fact, the beauty of having your own restaurant is that you can get creative, making a <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/5-marketing-technologies-all-restaurants-should-be-using/">strateg</a><a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/5-marketing-technologies-all-restaurants-should-be-using/">y</a> that is much more personal for your customers than a bite at McDonald’s.



People love independent restaurants for their homely feel, especially with excellent hospitality and amazing food. Drawing on these strengths <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/building-customer-loyalty-with-blackbx/">creates a sense of loyalty</a>, helping your brand to become adopted by the local population.



If you own a small to a medium-sized restaurant, here’s our top free advice to promote your restaurant and boost your repeat business:



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Get Social</h4>



It goes without saying that in the digital age, a social presence is a must when it comes to your business. Facebook and <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/rock-your-restaurant-with-wifi-and-instagram/">Instagram</a>, in particular, are great ways to show off your restaurant. Also, another free way of promoting your restaurant. Whether you advertise deals or introduce new items to your menu, it’s an excellent visual tool to get stomachs rumbling and ultimately feet through the door.



Most of all, it keeps <a href="https://econsultancy.com/five-restaurants-with-first-class-social-media-strategies/">your business in the mindset of your customers</a>. Your restaurant goes from being a physical space they may pass on the high street from time to time, to something they are viewing every time they scroll through their feed. It also gives the ability for tagging, inviting others to dine with you or view your posts.



The more your brand becomes a lifestyle and connects with your customers during their everyday lives, the more likely they are to visit. You can even use social media to advertise bookings for big events such as Christmas Day, Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, etc. It’s a multifaceted tool that can give a huge organic or paid reach, opening you up to new customers even if you’re closed!



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Special Offers</h4>



Few of us can <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/infographic-how-likely-are-people-to-act-on-promotions/">resist a bargain</a> and the same is absolutely true when it comes to food. Eating out regularly can seem like a bit of a stretch for some, so getting the right deals will help boost repeat business.



Some restaurants have a set menu where every night there is a different deal, such as “a curry and a pint for £5 on Thursdays”, or “buy one get one free burger on Saturdays”. You can completely tailor deals to the type of cuisine you serve and your clientele. The main thing is that it’s a way excellent of attracting customers, and helps create loyalty. Think of <a href="https://www.dominos.co.uk/blog/two-tuesday/">how successful Domino’s two for Tuesday</a> is!



Don’t forget to advertise any deals on posters or boards to attract passing trade also. The best combination is to combine a great deal with a slow part of the week. Give your customers a reason to head out in the rain and come visit you over the bigger chains down the street.



Be proud of what you do differently as an independent restaurant, and don’t be afraid to share it.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Rewards</h4>



From the traditional reward card that gets stamped each time a customer visits your restaurant, to offering a discount each time someone leaves you a review online &#8211; <a href="https://www.marketingdonut.co.uk/customer-care/customer-loyalty/ten-ways-to-reward-loyal-customers">rewards are an excellent marketing tool in themselves</a>.



In terms of getting repeat business, there are many ways you can make rewards that give you just that. For example, patrons can receive a free drink on their 6th visit. Or, a half-price meal if they return twice in one week. You can tailor the deals to make them work for your restaurant.



Here comes another free restaurant promotion input. Have a read in our eBook on how loyalty programs can help you boost your repeat business.

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Themed Nights</h4>



Everyone likes something to look forward to, and <a href="https://restaurantden.com/restaurant-event-ideas/">themed nights are an excellent way</a> to drum up business both repeat and new. You could hold a jazz night and invite a local musician to play, or even a tapas night. Some restaurants even hold murder mystery nights!



The idea is to create a buzz and expand the potential of your restaurant. If people can visit you for a delicious lunch but also return a few days later for a Halloween night or even a poetry reading &#8211; this is repeat business.



The best part about themed nights is that your customers will likely turn up in groups. This means even more new or repeat business is generated.



<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>



If you own a restaurant and you’re looking to <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/engaging-customers-through-wi-fi-marketing/">increase footfall</a>, it’s time to act now by getting creative. It’s important your business is a place people want to visit more than once in a while, so it’s essential to take steps to make this happen. Our free tips and tricks will help you promote your restaurant more successfully. 



Whether you venture out with themed nights or offer special promotions for your loyal customers, it’s all about getting into the mindset of your patrons. The more customer-friendly your restaurant is, the more likely you are to secure repeat trade.&nbsp;

Free Restaurant Promotions Ideas

<h3>Stampede launches “Wi-Fi Stories” to revamp outdated guest Wi-Fi and eliminates paper</h3>
<a href="https://stampede.ai/">Stampede</a>, the smart Wi-Fi and marketing analytics start-up, today announced the launch of its brand new “Wi-Fi Stories” feature – initially available on a free trial period. The Instagram-style stories feature is a unique digital channel for venue owners to display promotions, deals and events to customers, including links to encourage TripAdvisor and Google reviews. These short five second videos and landing pages, which are immediately displayed to returning customers when they go online, eliminate the need for wasteful and time-consuming paper promotions. This allows venues to create new promotions on the fly and, since detailed conversion analytics are available for all promoted Stories, lets venues experiment with different displays and track their success. Stories gives venue owners more value from their Wi-Fi, which has historically been given away for free, while also keeping customers up-to-date on relevant deals in real-time such as Happy Hour promotions, today’s specials and upcoming live music.
Stories is now available on Stampede’s Wi-Fi and data analytics platform, which is an alternative log in option for secure guest Wi-Fi that doesn’t require a password. The launch also follows Stampede market research in May 2019 revealing that the majority of British food and drink venues put little or no effort promoting new deals or attracting new customers, and that only 38% of people have left an online review for their favourite restaurant – see more in notes for editors.
“Like paying for dinner by cheque or smoking at the bar, I think that physical food &amp; drink promos and Wi-Fi passwords scrawled on blackboards will be alien concepts in the next five years,” said Stampede founder and CEO, Patrick Clover. “We’re on a mission to make Wi-Fi better for everyone and give physical venues the digital tools they need to reach their customers. Physical promotions are easily ignored, they take time to design, must be re-printed for every change and, let’s face it, paper is a poor environmental choice. For businesses that want more value from Wi-Fi or don’t know how to get started with digital marketing, our Stories feature is the ultimate in-venue promotional tool and the perfect replacement for boring paper promotions.” 
Core features of Stories include:
<ul>
<li>Stories can promote anything chosen by the venue eg. a new menu, an upcoming event, a TripAdvisor review page, or a daily promotion to help increase transactions (eg. buy-one-get-one-free cocktails, happy hour events, the weekly pub quiz)</li>
<li>Venues see detailed conversion analytics for all their Stories (eg. how many customers left a review, how many saw their latest cocktail promotion), letting them experiment with different promotions and track their success</li>
<li>No other guest Wi-Fi / captive portal provider has a solution of this kind</li>
</ul>
“High street shops and the hospitality sector at large is struggling, it can’t compete with the likes of Amazon, Airbnb and JustEat, and things are getting worse not better,” continued Clover. “We want to empower these venues with the digital tools and customer understanding that have made digital businesses so successful – helping them know their customers better, showcase everything they have to offer and be a bit more agile when it comes to communicating with customers.”
Notes for editors 
In May 2019, Stampede released <a href="https://stampede.ai/news/press-releases/research-reveals-insight-to-british-social-routines/">market research</a> on the struggles facing the hospitality sector and the significance of guest Wi-Fi. Key results from 2,000 UK respondents include:
<ul>
<li>British people only try new food and drink venues 1-2 times per year</li>
<li>78% of respondents said that their favourite food and drink venue puts little or no effort into marketing new events/promotions or attracting new customers</li>
<li>Only 36% of people have left an online review for their favourite restaurant</li>
<li>62% of respondents agreed with the statement “I feel better when connected to Wi-Fi, even if I have data remaining” This number rises to 88% for 25-34yr olds</li>
<li>53% had experienced guest Wi-Fi connectivity problems. The most common complaints were passwords not working (25%), not being able to find the password (23%) and registration processes taking too long (15%)</li>
<li>Roughly three in ten people said that they could go longer without sex or alcohol (28% and 34%) than data</li>
</ul>

Stampede launches “Wi-Fi Stories” to revamp outdated guest Wi-Fi

Getting up early has never been easy. Luckily, we&#8217;re blessed with coffee and people who have a passion for preparing good coffee. While enjoying a cup of java, we met Tom Hyde, co- founder of Brew Lab Coffee, at his shop on South College Street in Edinburgh.
Brew Lab Coffee opened about five years ago and is now a crucial part of many people’s daily routine. Instead of simply supplying Edinburgh with good quality coffee, Tom decided to go a step further and diversify the business. Opening a training lab beneath the shop was adding the “Lab” to Brew Lab . It&#8217;s used to train professionals and coffee lovers to brew their favourite drink to perfection. Furthermore, Brew Lab started selling their homemade Cold Brew last year (which we tried and it was delicious!).
<iframe loading="lazy" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/tuFYIzShg8s" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
<h2>It&#8217;s all about customer experience&#8230;</h2>
For Tom it is always crucial to provide the best possible customer experience to guests and not only provide them with great coffee, but also with great atmosphere and the best WiFi experience. From day one, Brew Lab Coffee was providing WiFi to its guests &#8211; but encountered problems with the login, the number of allowed users and other restrictions.
“We used to have a WiFi password in a picture frame on the wall and we used to change that every five days. It was a real headache to manage”, Tom mentions. 
And who doesn’t know the hassle of walking over to the counter and asking for the password? 
<h3>&#8230;and your Brand!</h3>
As one of our first customers, we reached out to Tom and introduced him to Stampede Guest WiFi. He is now welcoming customers with a uniquely branded login screen and making it as easy as possible for them to use the WiFi in a fast and secure manner.
“I think delivering something like WiFi has an effect on your brand. We are quite a brand led business. We take a lot of care and time to make sure we project the image we want to and delivering a safe and secure WiFi network is part of that. It’s not going to be at the forefront of any customer’s mind but it should be something that works seamlessly in the background, so they don’t have to think about it.“
<h3>How our Guest WiFi Software Helped Brew Lab</h3>
Another advantage that Tom gets out of Stampede WiFi are the <a class="" href="https://www.stampede.ai/how-it-works#insight" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">powerful insights</a>. Even though Tom knows the shop inside-out and spends a lot of time at his business, he admits that it is very helpful to have an actual data source to rely on. 
Gaining insights into customer behaviour is very valuable for every business, as the data can be used to get to know your customers better and approach them on a personal level. Stampede helps you to setup automated marketing campaigns and reach out to customers that connected to your WiFi earlier. 
<h3>Want to Provide Awesome WiFi and an Epic Experience to your customers?</h3>
