The Lock In team takes a look at the pub regular, from old Dave propping up the bar, to the crowd that tell you how to run the pub - how important are regulars, and how do you control them?
Giving people a reason to get out to the pub has never been more important, so the Lock In team take a look at some of the wild, wacky and traditional ideas for pulling in the punters.
With modern society going through seismic changes (is it jam first, or cream first) the Lock In team decided to take a look at the unwritten rules of the pub - do people actually know what they are?!
Are influencers really delivering for pubs? The Lock In team hears what works, what doesn’t and how pubs can use influencers, reviewers and social media more effectively to help drive footfall.
