MARKETING & PROMOTION
As business owners and managers, we want locals and visitors to have a perception of Gloucester as a city on the up, and a place where they want to do business, shop, visit, study and invest.
Gloucester BID board plan to build a platform to promote activities across the whole city centre, using traditional, outdoor, digital, print, broadcast and social media, this will include promoting events, the leisure and evening economy and assisting in raising the profile of large projects that benefit the wider business community, locally and nationally.
PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS
The BID will adopt an integrated marketing strategy, developing copy and material in newspaper advertising, billboards, radio, leaflets, annual reports, newsletters and through our website as appropriate. The BID will look to promote a wide range of sectors, including professional services, restaurants and bars and independent retailers.
SOCIAL MEDIA & ONLINE
A website and social media accounts are established for Gloucester BID and are successful at attracting visitors. It is intended to continue to develop these, and utilise other social media accounts focused on the city to help promote the BID area.
