Mobile Marketing for Bars & Nightclubs

Mobile SMS Marketing is the No 1 Marketing tool for clubs and pubs across the UK. In fact it would be fair to say that Text Marketing is an absolute critical marketing tool for any entertainment venue targeting the 18 – 30 year age group. The cost of Text Message Marketing is unbeatable when compared with posters, mailers, press or broadcast advertising and the return on investment is exceptional, it really works for this industry.

How can mobile marketing help your business?

• Increase loyalty
  Keep customers updated on all news involving the venue, refurbishments, new menus etc.
• Lead generation
  Set up a Free Text Club. New members can simply join by texting a keyword. You can then keep them updated on all your events & promotions!
• Sales promotions
  If you are looking to increase footfall during quiet periods, send out text promotions such as 2 for 1 entry, drinks promotions, meal discounts. Monitor responses by the number of people redeeming offers.

What if I don’t have any mobile numbers?
