4 Ways to Attract New Guests to Your Venue

If you are a savvy planner, then you will have realised that you can’t rely on one database of attendees to fill your venue every year. You need to find a good way of attracting new guests to your venue in the hope that they’ll love what you offer and come back time and time again. Fortunately, there are a few simple ways to attract new guests to your venue. Here, we take a look at 4 great ways to get more guests through your doors.

1. Consider a Photo Booth

At the top of the list is finding a photo booth for sale. There no doubts the fact that taking photographs of people having fun is great, especially at a wedding venue. Investing in a photo booth for sale will help you reap a number of benefits. The first benefit is that it helps to entertain your guests. You can ensure that every guest that attends your event gets to enjoy each and every moment at the venue. The addition of a photo booth will give any event you hold at your venue a little extra pizazz. It will also help with your marketing efforts, as with digital photo booths guests can share their photos directly from the booth, allowing everyone to see what a great time they’re having at your venue. These photographs are going to create some very lasting memories. The best part is that your guests can click as many pictures as they want.

2. Offer amenities that meet the needs of different groups of people

It makes sense to provide as many different amenities as you can to suit the needs of a diverse group of guests. It makes sense to offer Wi-Fi and there should be outlets where your guests can connect their laptops. Also, think about providing free drinking water as well as parking space for your guests. Being comfortable in a space as they have everything they need will ensure your guests return to your venue more than once.

3. Offer exciting food and beverages

There is nothing quite like offering your guests the most exciting food and beverage options. There is no need to offer F & B service, but if you do then you will make your venue that much more attractive to those who are looking to spend some real time there. The best way to attract guests to your venue is to offer customisable food options. Adding a station where guests can make their own pizzas is known to help attract more guests. The same can be said about using a theme that goes well with the meeting agenda.

4. Make full use of social media

It makes sense for you to promote your venue on social media. You should be ready to make use of websites like YouTube and Vimeo. At these sites, you can post your videos about your venue to your potential guests, who when they see what is on offer, will be more likely to attend the function if they are impressed with what they are shown. You can also photograph your event and post these pictures on your Twitter and Facebook pages. This will help to promote the venue and it also allows you to introduce your venue to your guests.

These 4 ways to attract more guests to your venue are bound to succeed. From marketing on social media, to being attentive to your guests needs and exciting their senses, you’re sure to have a regular stream of returning customers to your venue.
