🍺 The average price of a pint pushed over £5 as Brits expected to tip more our latest research found! The research, based on 2,500 hospitality businesses, staff and customers to gain insight into the UK’s tipping culture, uncovered how 74% of the hospitality industry will apply a service charge as standard for pouring pints and making cocktails. 22% of these already charge a tip while 52% plan to add a charge of up to 10% for the service, pushing the current average price of £4.75 for a pint to over £5 in some places for the first time. Those living in the Home Counties, Northern Ireland and the capital could bear the brunt of these changes. In London a pint will cost you at least £7.15, with a 10% tipping charge, followed by Lisburn (£6.71) and Brighton (£6.60). The three cheapest cities in the UK for a pint will be Wrexham (£2.20), Bangor (£2.42) and Dunfermline (£2.97). Want to find out what else we uncovered?

Sometimes all we need is a change of perspective. Hospitality can make that happen with every interaction between ourselves and the people around us. One act of kindness can change the way we see the rest of our day! #hospitality #nycevents #nycstaffing #eventstaffing

Does your meeting environment affect your close rate? As I meet people in various bars and restaurants I’m very conscious of ensuring that the meeting place is conducive to a positive meeting. It must have air con for my guests, it must have power for my laptop, it must have atmosphere but not be too noisy that we can’t be heard and it must have a good supply of beers/waters/coffees/teas! But it also must reflect my proposition. We have a premiumly priced professional service and therefore the environment around must reflect that. So I looked at my close rate at my usual “office” the WooBar at the W and then also at the couple of Brotzeit’s that I use in Vivo and Raffles City and I noticed that my close rate at the W was far superior to Brotzeit. I put this down to various factors. If you make the effort to visit me in Sentosa and don’t complain about the $6 entry fee then you’re already on the way to becoming a client. Then the WooBar is a lovely calm and sophisticated environment in a luxury 5 star hotel, usually with no one around as their clients tend to come at night, unlike Brotzeit which had a daytime and night time trade so it can get very busy during lunchtime. I have a fantastic standing table with power, air con and a great team supplying me with and my guests with drinks at the WooBar. Brotzeit is epic but is less premium and less set up for presentations. I have therefore stopped meeting anywhere but the Woobar or on Zoom if they don’t wish to come to Sentosa or live abroad. It’s all about ensuring that all the factors involved in the sales process are conducive to closing a deal. What do you think? If you would like to meet up at my ‘office’ at the WooBar at the W in Sentosa or on a zoom to discuss how we could enhance your personal brand on LinkedIn to win you new clients, new investors or get a new job/NED role with a FREE CV, DM me, our service details are here: https://lnkd.in/dqWRi6EZ #linkedin #rockstar #mohawk #founder #entrepreneur #personalbrand #blackmarketing #sentosa #singapore

A TALE OF TWO PROPERTIES 🍽️ 🍺 I recently got back from a trip around the west coast of Ireland with my wife. We spent our last night in Galway (an amazing city that neither of us had been to before) and we both loved the contrasts you could find in neighbouring properties. On the left is Aniar - a Michelin star restaurant (and one of the best meals we have ever had). It only recently reopened after a refurbishment project which completely transformed the inside of the restaurant. On the right is M.P. Walsh - an old school pub which was previously a post office and was incredibly welcoming (and did a cracking pint of Guinness). I recently posted asking what landlords and tenants can do to make their properties stand out from the crowd. Aniar and M.P. Walsh are good examples of differing approaches from hospitality spaces which do not have a huge amount of space inside so need to maximise the experience for their customers. Aniar is the only Michelin star restaurant in Galway but cannot rest on its laurels as they are only able to take a maximum of 38 covers for dinner. The closed curtains (and traditional Irish folk music) create ambience for customers inside the restaurant and add a sense of intrigue for passersby. As for M.P Walsh, the barman told me that, as they have no beer garden which a lot of pubs around them do, they need to make the inside of the pub as appealing as possible to attract customers. Both are leaning into their strengths and utilising them as much as they can instead of trying to cover up their weaknesses. New and quirky VS old and full of character in the same place - more of this in London please, unless there’s an area that has this and I’ve missed it? #commercialproperty #landlord #tenant #landlordandtenant #hospitality #pubs #restaurants
