Making the most of your week at the Gate

Booking the space is the start, now you will need to attract your visitors.

Please give our Marketing Team some more information to help them to promote your week the Gate,

Make art!

Consider making art whilst you are there – we have found that people can be very curious to see artwork being created

 

Consider offering simple free, or low price, drop-in workshops where visitors can learn some basic skills

Personal recommendation

Personal invitations to friends and past customers work wonders and don’t forget to tell them the days when you are stewarding so you can welcome them personally.

Events

Consider holding an opening event or a closing event; invite people through your social media channels and with personal invitations. The cost of refreshments can be offset by the increased visitor numbers (and the potential of making sales).

Attracting passersby

An open door is inviting. Westgate Street is one of Gloucester’s busiest streets – shoppers, office workers and tourists.
