The Challenges Bars & Breweries Face

Crowds don’t just show up — they need a reason. Without consistent promotion, even the best bar nights or brewery events risk empty tables. Posting to social media or sending emails by hand takes time, and last-minute pushes often fall flat.

Reputation is another challenge. Guests often leave happy, but without a reminder, reviews rarely make it online. Competitors with more 5-star ratings rise higher on Google, drawing in new customers while your spot gets overlooked.

How Surge Helps Bars & Breweries Draw a Crowd

Surge makes it simple to boost attendance and reputation at the same time. With Email & SMS Marketing, you can promote live music, trivia nights, or beer releases directly to your audience — ensuring more filled seats and better nights. After events, Reputation Managementautomatically requests reviews, showcasing happy guests and helping you stand out in search results.

With Surge, you can:

  • Promote events and specials directly with Email & SMS Marketing
  • Boost your reputation automatically by requesting reviews through Reputation Management
  • Stay visible online with consistent posting through Social Media Automation
