About this Event
Staffordshire may be home to a dizzying array of high street hospitality venues, but there’s a common challenge that connects them all: how to drive footfall in an increasingly competitive business landscape 👣.
Independent cafés, pubs, restaurants 🍴 and more are going head-to-head with chains, supermarkets and out-of-town retail parks – all while navigating rising operational expenses and the ongoing cost-of-living crisis 💰.
Despite these challenges, the chances are that there is an audience for what you’re offering 👥. The trick is to figure out who your ideal customer is and how to persuade them to spend their hard-earned money at your establishment.
In this half-day workshop, the team from Chatty Duck Creative – in partnership with Stoke-on-Trent & Staffordshire Growth Hub – will help you cut through the noise by answering three pivotal questions:
👤 Who are our existing customers?
🎯 Who do we want to attract?
💡 How can we use these insights to drive footfall and spending?
Through interactive exercises and hospitality-specific examples, you’ll build an accurate picture of your existing audience, develop a clear profile of your ideal customer, and identify the elements that are most likely to convince the right people to walk through your door. You’ll also explore low-cost, practical strategies to expand your customer base while forging new relationships with fellow high street hospitality businesses.
Outcomes
✅ Understand who you’re talking to and why they should visit your establishment.
✅ Leave with a well-defined profile of your ideal customer and a clear idea of your next steps.
Perfect if you’ve been meaning to rejuvenate your social media content, update your website or design fresh promotional materials for your venue.
