MIRAMAR, FL 33027 954 • 450 • 3100 www.cocolopez.com by James Careless For savvy bar owners, Facebook and Twitter are more than just fads: Both forms of social media are proven business-boosters that don’t cost a penny to use. As for content? It can be anything; including hot food specials, seasonal drinks, Happy Hour promotions, live band bookings, saucy photos of the last raucous party, and whatever else makes your bar stand out. But whatever it is, it should be posted on Facebook and Twitter for the world to see – and for your bar to get results. Illustration by Daren Jannace Make no mistake: “Facebook has helped our business,” says Jason Workman. He co-owns the Tremont Tap House, a ‘gastro-pub’ located in Cleveland, Ohio and online at facebook.com/ TremontTapHouse. “It’s a great tool that increases our online visibility and vastly extends the number of people who we can directly communicate with,” Workman tells Bartender magazine. “It can be used to target extremely specific demographics, including age, interests and hobbies, gender, location, and much more.” 24 To date, Buffa’s Facebook page has garnered 837 ‘Likes’. That’s good news: Every time a Facebook user clicks on Buffa’s ‘Like’ button, Buffa’s information and website is sent to all of that user’s Facebook friends. Talk about effective word-of-mouth! Recently, Buffa’s conclusively proved that Facebook can generate traffic. “We put a ‘status update’ only on Facebook that said anyone who wears a Hawaiian shirt would get Happy Hour prices,” explains Rogers. “We didn’t post that on our web site or anywhere else just to see if it would have any impact. Several people came in and mentioned, ‘I wore a Hawaiian shirt, so I get Happy Hour prices, right?’” Atlanta’s Porter Beer Bar also has a Facebook page. Aditionally, “we use Twitter as well because it’s even more timely than Facebook,” says bar co-owner Molly Gunn. “If we want our customers to know about something immediately we ‘tweet’ about it [because subscribers to Porter’s Twitter feed receive these messages instantly], while we post Facebook updates Faceb Through Facebo Chuck Rogers agrees. The co-owner of Buffa’s Bar & Restaurant in New Orleans, Rogers’ eatery can be found at facebook.com/buffas. “Facebook is sort of ‘word of mouth’ on steroids, all by itself,” he says. “So we make sure it is featured prominently on our web site, and in both our in-house and take-out menus. We also run Facebook ads from time to time. When we do, we always see an increase of traffic to both our Facebook page and our web site.” BARTENDER MAGAZINE bartender.com BOOSTING WINTER 2011 only once a day.” (The Porter Beer Bar’s Twitter page can be seen at twitter.com/PorterBeerBar.) “We use Twitter too,” Workman says. “Twitter is less of a communication and more of a platform to be heard. I like it because it is INSTANT, simple, and to the point. This is the most effective and direct way to get a message out.” The Porter Beer Bar also supports “check-ins” from mobile phone users running location-based games such as Foursquare. In this game, players record their physical locations using their phones’ GPS trackers, with the data being sent back to Foursquare and – by extension – the people who own the venues the gamers are reporting from. “All those ‘check in’ apps are invaluable to us to know who’s at our business and how often,” Gunn says. “And we don’t even have to be there to know!” Clearly, these bars are profiting from Facebook and Twitter. But maintaining this success means that the online BUSINESS content has to be regularly refreshed. So “put it on a daily checklist,” Gunn advises. (Note: Experienced bar owners who are a bit overwhelmed by social media would be wise to delegate the job to their youngest and brightest staff.) “Facebook is an investment in time,” Workman says. “I think sometimes there is more effort put into the social media aspect of a business then there is into the actual business. However, if you have a solid business and a good product, social media can help take your business to another level altogether.” “Once you start, you can’t stop,” Rogers agrees. “This isn’t something you can do once a month or even once a week and expect it to have any impact ... [But] If you have the diligence to use social media frequently and with some imagination, it will pay off.” book ook and Twitter WINTER 2011 bartender.com BARTENDER MAGAZINE 25 CHOOSE YO U R DESTINATIO N. great mix of exhibits at the wisconsin restaurant expo endless value for your business – from bevs to wares, tech to trends you’ll find what’s next in food and beverage get inspired. come to the expo. www.everythingfoodservice.org like us on facebook MARCH 12-14, 2012 Frontier Airlines Center – Milwaukee register today - just $25 in advance to attend expo 2012 BAROSCOPES CAPRICORN December 22 – January 20 Things will be a bit tense for you this winter.
