Pubs and bars
Most of the people who spend money in your pub leave with no way for you to contact them again.
The Wi-Fi is the one thing nearly everybody uses. Make it the thing that remembers them.
- Works with any broadband
- Live in under an hour
- Nothing changes on your router
- 30 days to change your mind
Common problems
You have regulars you could name, and hundreds of people you couldn’t.
A quiet Tuesday costs you the same in staff as a busy Friday.
The only way to reach anyone is to pay Facebook to show them a post.
What you’d actually use it for
Tuesday is dead
Message everyone who hasn’t been in for a month. Two hundred people who already know where you are, instead of forty pounds of boosted post aimed at strangers.
The quiz needs numbers
Send it to everyone who came on a Wednesday. They’re already the sort who come out midweek.
A big match is on
One message the morning of, to everyone who’s been in on a match day before.
The kitchen has a new menu
Tell the people who’ve eaten with you. They’re the ones who’ll come back for it.
You want more reviews
Everyone who opted in gets asked the day after, once they’re home. No staff member hovering over a table with an iPad.
You’re selling up
A named customer list with recorded consent is an asset, and one of the few things in a leasehold pub you can take with you.
Built for the router in your cupboard
Guest Wi-Fi software normally expects you to already own commercial networking equipment, fitted by a contractor. Most small venues don’t, and there is no reason they should.
If your router came in a box from BT, Sky, Virgin or anyone else, this was built for you. We supply the equipment. You keep the broadband you’ve got.
“I don’t want my Wi-Fi going down on a Saturday.”
Neither do we, which is why the off switch changes nothing on your router. If you ever want us out completely you move one cable back. We show you that on the day, before you have to take our word for it.
