The purpose of the 'Our Pubs section of the OurBrum site is to
increase trade for the best pubs in our City by ensuring people find the pub that best suits their lifestyle
preferences. You already know what makes your pub an attraction to it's customers. It may just be a relaxed and friendly environment. You may have 'guest beers', karaoke evenings, child friendly play areas, cocktails, mini bus transport arrangements, live bands, comedians, quiz nights, singles nights, lunch time specials, happy hour or hours (Hick!), a beer garden, live sports coverage, electronic games attractions, free juke box, who knows what else! With the OurBrum.co.uk site you have a focused notice board dedicated to getting these features before the eyes of a wider audience than those who pass your front doors. It's very possible that your pub is already listed under the area in which it resides so take a look if you haven't already. We also hope to build in many cost effective options for you to promote the best features of your establishment like a dedicated page featuring interior shots or the history of your pub. We will also have an upcoming events section were you can secure an entry for main attraction events you have planned. Here are some frequently asked questions How strongly can my pub feature on the OurBrum site? The other two pubs featured will be singled out for the events and attractions they have on offer today. One will be a larger landmark establishment probably having a function room whilst the other could be a small community type pub featuring a traditional bar and intimate lounge. The feature is designed to attract spontaneous patronage of your establishment. So the choice of these pubs comes down to how much is happening in a given pub in the immediate two week period following insertion. Innovative features will probably help ensure inclusion. What can be done to help me present my establishment in the best light? We already have a web site how can this work for us? What is the first thing I should do to get my pub noticed? Once the description is up, how can I get featured? Seriously though. You let us know what you have going on in your pub on a fortnightly basis by e-mail. We will then update the events portion of the features page associated with your venue. We will review these features on a regular basis and shortlist pubs that we feel are providing a varied and dynamic program. We also want to hear from publicans who feel they have a case for being featured - this too can be done via e-mail so get writing. We will then invite around six pubs to put together a venue profile with us that encapsulates their pubs features. We need about a month to compile these so if you know you have a good program of events for October you need to let us know in mid August. Who will see these features? The personal associations that people form through their interaction in these places is as valuable today as ever it was. In fact it is very easy today to feel totally isolated so part of the OurBrum's goal is to get people meeting together face to face as regularly as possible. One of the primary places to do that is still 'the local'. So OurBrum will provide the information for people to find places where they feel comfortable and were they can mix with other like minded Brummies.
