Bars, pubs and microbreweries · Digital marketing
One plan for the map, the website, the posts and the booking message.
Digital marketing for a bar, pub or microbrewery joins your map profile, website, social posts and WhatsApp into one plan around your programme. GullySales builds each piece, sets the order of work and reads the results with you, with every message kept on the venue and away from alcohol.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What digital marketing means
Digital marketing is the combined work of search, social media, advertising and website channels running together rather than as separate projects with separate people. GullySales runs these as one connected system so a change in one channel, such as a new offer, is reflected everywhere at once.

For bars, pubs and microbreweries
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Each channel has a job”
The map brings in the nearby guest, the site answers the planner, social shows the night and WhatsApp takes the booking. Asking each to do everything leaves gaps.
“The programme is the calendar”
Match fixtures, festivals and live nights set when to post and what to say. Work done after the date has passed reaches nobody.
“Paid promotion needs a rule check”
Platforms and states restrict advertising for alcohol venues. Check both before spending anything, and keep the copy about the venue and the event.
What we do
What we deliver for bars, pubs and microbreweries.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Programme calendar
A dated plan placing posts, emails and messages before each event, match and festival.
Result: Every date is promoted ahead of time.
Channel roles
A written note on what each channel is for and who looks after it.
Result: Nobody expects the wrong thing from a channel.
Tracking set-up
Calls, forms and WhatsApp clicks tagged by source.
Result: You can see which channel brought tables.
Rules sheet agreed with your adviser
A one-page list of what the venue may and may not say online.
Result: Everyone writing for the venue follows one list.
Season review
A look at bookings, sources and guest questions, written up for the next plan.
Result: The next season starts with what you learned.

Strategise the central idea
One message and offer is developed that will work across every planned channel.

Implement across channels
Each channel receives its own adapted version, launched on a shared timeline.
- 5
Measure as one campaign
Results from every channel are combined into a single report against the original objective.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
