The Seven Steps to Sales Success
Step 1 – Know Your Pub and Your Competition
Every great pub starts with self-awareness. Learn how to understand your pub’s strengths, analyse your competitors, and define your place in the market. You’ll discover how to manage online reviews, set up Google, Facebook and TripAdvisor pages, and benchmark your reputation.
Outcome: You’ll know exactly where your pub stands and how to make it stand out.
Step 2 – Know Your Customers
Find out who your customers really are, what they value, and how to keep them coming back. We’ll show you how to profile your audience and match your offer to their habits and expectations.
Outcome: Your pub experience will connect with the people who matter most — your guests.
Step 3 – How Does Your Pub Look and Feel?
First impressions count. This step focuses on pub standards, atmosphere, and presentation — the details that turn a visit into an experience.
Outcome: You’ll create a welcoming environment that builds pride, repeat visits, and great word of mouth.
Step 4 – Sell the Right Things (Food, Drink & Machines)
Learn how to build the perfect range of drink and food that fits your audience and drives profit.
Outcome: You’ll understand what sells best in your market and how to make every product earn its keep.
Step 5 – Selling at the Right Price
Pricing can make or break your pub’s success. Discover how to balance value, perception, and margin, and position your prices confidently within your market.
Outcome: You’ll price smarter, boost profitability, and still keep customers happy.
Step 6 – Build a Great Hospitality Team
Your people are your biggest asset. Learn how to hire, train, and motivate a team that delivers great service every day.
Outcome: You’ll build a confident, motivated team that guests love and respect.
Step 7 – Create Reasons to Visit and Grow Sales
Keep your pub front of mind with smart, low-cost ideas for promotions, events, and community engagement.
