The Halls were well and truly Tech’d! 🥳

The Halls were well and truly Tech’d! 🥳

Yesterday, we held our first-ever event! We packed out The Mowbray with some of the best hospitality minds, both supplier and operator, in order to host a hospitality marketing masterclass for the upcoming festive season. Our speeches included 👇

- Rachel Lane, from GAUCHO, taught us the building blocks of a successful Christmas strategy, through winning Corporate business, as well as driving additional revenue at the 11th hour! 🥳

- Annica Wainwright, from 2 Forks, instructed us on how to #BeMoreEditorial!

- Katie Jenkins from KAM Research and Insights, gave a sneak peak at the findings from Airship and Toggle’s research with KAM, looking at consumer intentions for this Christmas.🚀

- Ellie P. stepped in for Victoria Searl last minute, and gave two great talks. The first was looking at the key to CRM success. The second looked at insight data from Toggle last christmas - hoping to provide analysis that could support operators this year!

- Nibble’s Co-Founder, Michael Radley, spoke about how their soon-to-launch app will resolve problems around influencer marketing in hospitality!

- Tom Patrick from Provenance Collection walked us through how Airship and Toggle helped them boost their digital marketing practices.🙌

- Jack Edge from Mission Mars gave us all a masterclass on how to open a pizzeria in a city where no one knows your name. If just reading this gives you FOMO, read the original blog here 👉 https://airship.co.uk/blog/pizza-a-story-as-old-as-thyme

- We announced our partnership with Solovey Vodka! In the coming weeks, we will bring that across all our channels so you can all find out how to support us and Yasha Estraikh in a mission to raise £1 million for War Child UK 😎

- Finally, we all got to unwind with Sam Brown’s Christmas Quiz… until he made half the room start punching holes in cardboard (don't ask).

A big big shout out to all the speakers who truly made the day! We will soon be releasing the recordings of all the speeches, so don’t worry if you couldn't make it - they will still be available for you to gain insights on how to smash Christmas!🥳

We also want to thank Snaparazzi Photobooths for providing an Airship branded photobooth. These guys offer some of the coolest uses of tech for hospitality businesses, and to make it even better - they integrate with Airship in order to help hospitality businesses gather customer & PoP data!😁

A big shout out to Richard Tissington and the team from OD Content, who filmed the event & speeches for us, and no doubt did a Christmas-cracker of a job (apologies for the pun).👏

Finally, a huge thank you to all the team over at The Mowbray. We can not state how brilliant all the bar staff were, how helpful the event team have been, and how ridiculously nice the food was. Huge compliments to the chefs. 🍺

Thank you to all that came and made the day what it was! Now, let's get on with Christmas.
