This month, Clubhouse became available for all. They dropped the ‘invite only’ option, and finally launched an app for Android users. But, the audio-only social media app doesn’t seem to be the centre of attention any more. 

What is Clubhouse?

If you haven’t already heard of it, Clubhouse is a social media app where users can communicate in voice chat rooms that accommodate groups of thousands of people. The audio app hosts live discussions, whether you are hosting, participating or just listening, there is a space for everyone. Find out more here. 

During the pandemic this app took the world by storm, helping people all over the world communicate with each other. Clubhouse was launched in March 2020 and was made to seem private and exclusive, which only boosted people’s urge to want to be a part of it.

Members began posting it on their social media, Instagram etc with an invite code, saying they could have one person join, this helped the app to grow and grow until it was valued at a whopping $4 billion after a few months of being on the market.

So, why has Clubhouse gone quiet?

A year on and the clubhouse party might be over….it has shown that numbers are beginning to slow, as well as engagement from people already on the platform. But why?? Many people will argue that the use of the app suited the pandemic but after all rules in the UK were officially dropped on the 19th July (Freedom day), many no longer see the use and are excited to get back to the office. In person meetings and being able to socialise at a  conference is a far more appealing option for most. Since over 137.2 million people have now received their first dose of the vaccine, with all over 18’s having their second by the end of August, no one wants to sit inside on their phones anymore.

The app is also yet to introduce recording of conversations, this could be massively holding them back as other apps that offer similar abilities such as zoom enable you to record the conversation and go back and listen to it later on.

Recent rumours of data breaches are also bad news for the app. A Twitter user recently shared:

“A database of 3.8 billion phone numbers of #Clubhouse users is up for sale on the #Darknet. It also contains Numbers of people in user’s PhoneBooks that were Synced. So Chances are high that you are listed even if you haven’t had a Clubhouse login. #DataPrivacy,” 

Can Clubhouse bounce back?

Is it the end of the app? With the world opening back up and competitors hot on their tails, things don’t look promising for the billion dollar app. Headlines have gone from ‘how to get an invite to the exclusive app: club house’ to ‘is clubhouse already failing’. The future is not looking bright.

Clubhouse paved the way for huge changes within the social media industry. So whilst this audio-only app may have passed its peak, it has certainly cemented itself into the history books for changing how we use technology. 

Barely 18 hours after the much anticipated reopening of nightclubs, those dreams of freedom were dampened. The 19th July saw tens of thousands of young Brits forming long queues, eager for their first taste of non-socially distanced dancing since last March. A day after the so-called ‘Freedom Day’, however, Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that from this coming September, a previously dismissed domestic COVID certificate, showing proof of a full course of vaccination against COVID-19, will then be required for entry into such premises. The September date is justified due this also being the deadline at which all over 18’s would have been given the opportunity to have received both doses.

In a virtual press conference, PM Johnson, isolating at home due to a recent contact with the COVID positive Health Secretary, defended his decision to lift all restrictions on social contact, arguing that opening the country later would only give the virus more opportunities to spread among the population. 

“There comes a time when restrictions do not prevent the inevitable, but only delay it. We have to ask ourselves: if not now, when?” said PM Johnson, responding to criticism from some within the scientific community for his decision.

Urging all citizens to be “cautious”, he confirmed the news delivered minutes earlier by the Secretary of State for Vaccination, Nadhim Zahawi, that having the two jabs of the vaccine will be an essential condition from the end of September to gain access to nightclubs and “other places where a lot of people gather”. The United Kingdom is following the same strategy as countries such as France, where the introduction of restrictions on unvaccinated individuals is to be introduced also. This news comes as the health department continues the push for vaccination among young people, as the age group has seen numbers of Covid cases skyrocket in recent weeks. 

Yesterday, Oxford, a student hub, was the English city with the highest rate of covid infection.

Although so far the double vaccine requirement has only been announced for clubs, it has been widely rumored that it could also become a requirement for pubs and other smaller venues. Boris Johnson’s spokesperson said that they’re “going to use the coming weeks to look at the evidence, particularly both in the UK and globally before making a specific decision” and furthermore that PM Johnson was “not keen’’ for that to happen in pubs. The spokesperson said the main risk factors were “close proximity, late at night and consumption of alcohol”, which had landed nightclubs first on the list for requiring the COVID passes. 

Conservative MP Charles Walker told Sky’s All Out Politics that vaccine passports for nightclubs are “way over the top” and fears the PM’s announcement is the “thin end of the wedge” when it comes to people having to prove their COVID vaccine status to access venues. “I suspect we will start off with nightclubs and by sometime in the autumn most hospitality venues will require a vaccine passport,” he said.

Downing Street insists it is not ruling out the idea of covid certification if the country faces “a difficult situation in autumn or winter”. With everyone 18+ having been offered two doses of vaccine by September, this would pave the way for vaccine passports to be required in places where social distancing is not possible.

The proliferation of plastic products in the last several decades has been extraordinary. It seems that we are addicted to this nearly indestructible material. We are producing over 380 million tons of plastic every year, and some reports indicate that up to 50% of that is for single-use purposes – utilized for just a few moments, but on the planet for at least several hundred years.

With the severity of plastic pollution, we want to draw attention and celebrate the great work that Plastic Free July is doing! 

What is Plastic Free July? 

Plastic Free July is a global movement that encourages and helps millions of people be part of the solution to plastic pollution so that we can have cleaner streets, oceans and communities. It has attracted an estimated 326 million participants across 177 counties. The movement encourages people to refuse single-use plastics in July (and beyond!) through education and the provision of free resources. 

What Posh Cockney are doing to help

Here at Posh Cockney we are joining Plastic Free July and striving to find alternatives to single-use plastics that can become new habits forever. 

And, we are proud to work with a range of clients that also strive to work sustainably and look after our planet. 

Temakinho is paving the way for sustainable business models and restaurants in the hospitality industry, becoming the first restaurant chain to obtain Friend of the Sea certification. 

Linda Maroli, owner of the Japanese and Brazilian culinary fusion, came up with the Temakinho idea while pregnant with her son. Her pregnancy influenced the development of a sustainable and ethical business model to bequeath to future generations an Earth which will not be irreversibly damaged by human activity.                                          

In order to reduce plastic waste, Temakinho replaced plastic straws with PLA alternatives, a biodegradable material derived from corn. In addition, the restaurant offers free filtered water, to avoid plastic bottles waste, as well as sustainable and recyclable take-away packaging.

‘’Sustainability has been part of Temakhino’s philosophy from the very beginning. We made sure that we only sourced sustainable fish and had no plastic in our restaurant. Sustainability is no doubt the key to the future: the only way to ensure a future for us and for the generations to come.’’

By making small and simple changes, as part of a collective group, we can make a big impact. Join in on Plastic Free July, and visit restaurants like Temakinho who create delicious food which tastes even better when you know it is produced ethically and sustainably! 

After months of waiting, the hospitality sector will finally reopen its doors again with apparent normality, and likely with no covid tests or vaccine passports in sight – hooray! British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Monday that the current situation in the United Kingdom “looks good” to be able to irreversibly lift all restrictions on July 19, the so-called “Freedom Day”, after having to delay the date for four weeks.

The partial reopening of hospitality on May 6 has caused an overwhelming wave of bookings in restaurants and pubs across the country. While having the freedom of booking a table has been a huge breath of fresh air for both customers and the hospitality industry, some venues have come under pressure to meet the ‘zero to one hundred’ demand due to staffing shortages. This is why not everyone will be jumping for joy on Freedom Day as some venues do not believe they have enough staff to open their doors.

What are the reasons for the staff shortages?

The reasons for such shortages are varied but there seem to be three main reasons behind the shortfall of around 188,000 workers, with front-of-house staff and chefs being particularly affected: 

• Brexit: many workers had to return to their home countries due to the difficulty in regulating their employment status after Brexit. In the same way that many potential workers have stopped coming to the country.
• Pandemic: many foreign workers returned to their home countries at the beginning of the pandemic and have not been able to return due to travel restrictions. 
• Uncertainty: this sentiment predominates in the sector and pushes many people to seek work in other sectors where the grass may appear greener.

This staff crisis not only affects the owners of pubs or restaurants but also affects the workers themselves. The hospitality workers who are working are having to work longer hours to compensate for the under-staffed industry, under more stressful conditions making them at risk of being subject to burnouts.

Boris Johnson recently said that “the most important thing” for the national economy and to pay for the recovery is to ensure that it continues to “open (society), in a cautious but irreversible way, and make the economy move again”. “That is the government’s priority, and we are working hard on it,” said the conservative leader.

What happens next?

The hospitality sector is seeking solutions asking the government to renew its list of shortage occupations and to consider a visa scheme for workers who would not qualify under the points-based system in a bid to ease staffing pressures. Government sources assure that they are working to “understand the impact of Brexit and the pandemic in this sector” and that they are “doing everything [they] can to support hospitality to recover”. They add that their “dedicated work coaches are supporting people into work, including into hospitality, and through the Kickstart Scheme [they are] offering generous incentives to employers to recruit, with hundreds of young people starting work every day”.

Latest statistics from the job site Indeed show that the number of London vacancies posted in hospitality categories – listings for pub, restaurant and bar staff – have increased by almost 600 per cent from February 22nd, the day Boris Johnson revealed his roadmap out of lockdown. This could mean that for job searchers, the hospitality sector could offer an easy and quick solution for employment. The lack of both experienced and inexperienced staff that could fill endless positions in the industry means that now, more than ever, jobseekers stand a higher chance of landing a well-paying role, say experts.

At Posh Cockney, also experts in recruitment in hospitality, we encourage people to pursue a career in the exciting world of hospitality as opportunities may never be as fruitful as of now, in a world where people seeking hospitality jobs have the upper hand.

The effect of visual imagery on the human brain is frequently under research and rigorous testing, with one test conducted by Peter Winkielman of the University of California concluding that emotionally charged images carry more power than words (Bennett, 2018).

Despite not currently having a concrete explanation for why this is, Winkielman hypothesises that humans engage with pictures differently than with words, due to ‘ambiguity and need for greater analysis’ (Bennett).

So, with this in mind, what does this mean for human engagement with videos?

Tyler Lessard, the VP of Marketing at Vidyard summarises the 4 Es of Great Video Content (Simon, 2021), beginning with Engaging:

• • Lessard said our brains are programmed to naturally engage in storytelling, with humans logically drawn to a good story. So, if a visual story is strong, its reception will be just as strong, or stronger.
  • Emotional: The emotional consequences which can be triggered from video are stimulated through a visual technique which can’t be stimulated from words. With a more personal impact caused by watching a video, there’s greater opportunity to connect with the audience on a greater emotional level.

• Educational: With the human brain being able to process visual information quicker than written text – releasing information through visual means it’s easier to remember. According to Forrester Research, employees are 75% more likely to watch a video instead of reading emails, documents or articles. Therefore, the ultimate way to dodge delays and maximise communication is through video.

• Empathetic: The authenticity which can be achieved by using a human face/real people talking about relevant information and problems can be substantial. Therefore, by creating empathy with who’s watching, it can be a key tool in building trust.

When it comes to realising the utility of video for business and marketing, it’s clear that it’s the frontrunner of techniques in increasing brand growth, reach and recognition. Walker-Ford reveals that video contributes to an increase in brand awareness by 70%, whilst 85% of consumers say videos help them connect with brands more effectively (Walker-Ford, 2020).

What about Socal Media?

Not only is it important to realise the significance of video in assisting in marketing and business outcomes, but also the platforms and touchpoints where these videos can be posted, accessed and viewed. Studies show 71% of businesses post videos on social media (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter), 63% post via YouTube, 50% on their websites and 11% on Vimeo (Walker-Ford). Therefore, when brands and businesses go about creating their own visual video content, the location of where these videos will be openly released is dominated by social media platforms – with 81% of people preferring to view videos via social media over (decreasing in popularity) images, text posts, stories, quizzes and lives.

Using video can be one of the greatest and most useful tools in your business and marketing strategies if done cleverly, tactically and professionally. By creating visual content which can draw the viewer into the story, triggering the correct emotions quickly, and tapping into the shared needs and ideals of your brand with your consumers, a bridge of trust can be formed between the two.

Having a piece of video content is only half the battle though, as you need to be able to feed this visual content to the consumers via the most necessary and popular channels at hand. If all this is done right, the brand will achieve the highly sought-after consequences of growth, awareness and success.

PR in the hospitality industry is often dismissed as an expense that does not really need the investment. Brands are often more eager to place their investment in printed advertisements and traditional marketing strategies. 

But in this digital age, the communications and media industry has increased in complexity and diversity and as a result, has complicated and altered the marketing and promotional techniques required to thrive in the hospitality industry. 

Gone are the days when venues could sweep a poor episode of service under the carpet and keep it on the down low. Now, with the rise of social media and the visibility of brands across social platforms and digital media, hospitality venues are faced with the threat of every customer becoming a keyboard warrior and tainting the image of their brand by posting online. 

It is now more than ever, critical to have a Public Relations team to monitor, respond and react to mentions of your brand anywhere in the digital landscape. 

It is this unique service provided by a PR team that enables a brand within hospitality to maintain one’s image and reputation as well as implement a strategy to sway customers and other brands to understand, support and visit you. 

In other words, PR makes you look good. And looking good in the hospitality industry is critical to attracting new customers, beating competitors, and nurturing consumer relationships. 

So let’s break it down to the top 5 advantages of implementing successful PR in the hospitality industry: 

1. Increase in brand visibility 

In today’s COVID climate, it is rare for customers to waltz down the street and simply walk into a restaurant for a meal. People have to plan, and this planning is driven by scouring the web for reviews, promotions and enticing restaurant aesthetics. PR ensures that your brand is visible in the digital landscape and therefore likely to attract bookings. And, PR teams have clever tricks up their sleeves to target customers without them even knowing they are about to become one. Techniques such as newsjacking and multi-media campaign strategies, can enable a brand to become visible across platforms simultaneously, and attract bookings from spontaneous consumerism. 

2.  Building and cementing relationships

 The hospitality industry is all about building good relationships, and good relationships can’t be built without good PR. I mean, it’s literally in the name. A PR team can use publications to engage and attract customers. However, with the channels provided by social media, they can also create solid and personalised relationships with customers; responding to enquiries, bookings and offering personalised service. 

3. Crisis Management 

If the past 18 months have taught us anything, it’s that a crisis can strike at any moment. PR teams are ready to act fast whenever a crisis hits. Whether that’s dealing with bad press, having to announce negative company news or guidance through a global pandemic, a PR team will be there to help. 

We understand the media and we understand the people reading it, allow us to strategically manage the situation.

4. Innovation & Reactivity

Employing PR within the hospitality industry does not only equip you with the capacity to respond to crises. It also enables your brand to be responsive to trending topics by connecting your venue to the cultural moment through clever campaigns. Ever wonder why so many brands create content and campaigns connected to Love Island phrases and trends? By inserting your brand into a trending topic, you are getting your brand name involved in the conversation and constantly increasing the visibility of it in the media. 

5. Improve your SEO

Ever wondered how to get to the first page of Google? Whilst there are many tactics to assist in this, one way to boost your SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is by earning strong backlinks.

A PR team will create campaigns that will land your business links in respected online publications and websites. Not only will this drive traffic to your site through people clicking on the link, it will also allow Google’s bots to find your website.

The more relevant links from high DA websites, the higher Google feels your page deserves to be ranked.

The hospitality industry is dependent on building good relationships. Having a PR team on hand is a fantastic way to understand who your customers are, reach them, and maintain that relationship.

The dreaded news has finally arrived, after many whispers and rumours, the restrictions that were due to be lifted on June 21st have been pushed back. Boris Johnson revealed in a news conference that there will be a delay in the next phase of England’s reopening on Monday, extending the Covid restrictions. The lockdown restrictions will be delayed by four weeks, from 21st June to 19th July. 

Recent figures delivered from Public Health England, reveal that 42,323 cases of the ‘Delta variant’ of the coronavirus that was first identified in India, have been confirmed across the U.K.. This is an increase of 240% from just last week.

Johnson has declared that the delay allows for more people to receive their second COVID-19 jab before all restrictions are due to end. It is expected that around two-thirds of adults will have been offered two doses of the vaccine by 19th July.

There has been a social media outcry of petitions and uproar surrounding the decision, with the Night Time Industries Association (NTIA) providing figures that 700,000 jobs have been lost within the nightclub industry and that billions of pounds have also been lost in revenue. Michael Kill, NTIA CEO, has said, “Night time economy businesses have waited patiently for there opportunity to open for over 15 months, many have not survived, some are on a cliff edge, hundreds of thousands of jobs have been lost, a huge pool of talent has been swept away and left to suffer extreme financial hardship.”

Nightclubs aren’t the only events having taken a hit, with many festivals and live music events having also been canceled or postponed, disappointing festival-goers, organisers, artists and staff- costing tens of thousands of pounds in fees and lost income.

Of course, it goes without saying that all eyes have been on the Euro 2020 Football Championship, with many sports fans holding their breath to be able to attend a full stadium. The postponed date will continue the limited capacity venues, with large outdoor venues capped at 10,000 or just 4,000 for smaller venues.

Tips to help you get through lockdown:

Get Outside!

With the summer days approaching, now is the perfect time to walk with your family, friends or pets. Attend outdoor events and keep your calendars full, keeping in line with the COVID social distancing restrictions, making memories and staying safe.

Support Local Businesses

By supporting a small business, you’re supporting a vital part of your local community that will keep businesses afloat and thriving, ready to continue back as normal once restrictions have been lifted.

Focus on the Facts

There is so much overwhelming information online surrounding the coronavirus, with many false facts or speculation spread across social media. Stay informed and keep updated by looking at the NHS or official Government guidance website.

One of life’s pleasures that the pandemic took away from us was brunching. Who didn’t miss gathering with friends, sipping Mimosas and enjoying a wide range of delicious dishes?

Thankfully, we are now able to spend our weekends brunching with friends, instead of laying down on the couch for the whole day, gazing longly out of the window.

We all love a good brunch, but not many people know the history behind this original meal. For this, we should all thank Guy Beringer who coined the term in Britain in 1895 to describe a Sunday meal for “Saturday-night carousers”. 

The author was inspired by his own hangover to write the essay “Brunch: a Plea!”. The term was a portmanteau of breakfast and lunch, which was described very similarly to the concept of brunch we are familiar with: rising late, gathering your mates and chatting the afternoon away. 

Brunch in 2021

We all know that Londoners love brunch. From bottomless prosecco to beach brunch and karaoke, brunch themes are ever-growing.

Temakinho London is no different. With the help of the Posh Cockney team, Temakinho will kick off its brunch offering on Old Compton Street on the 26th of June, before taking the party to Tower Bridge the following week.

Temakinho gives a new meaning to the concept of traditional brunching by adding a touch of Japanese and Brasilian culture. Forget the traditional eggs benedict and be ready to immerse yourself into a vibrant atmosphere. 

“Brunch … is cheerful, sociable, and inciting. It is talk-compelling,” Beringer claimed in his essay. The Posh Cockney team definitely agrees with him, therefore, we made sure to build a dynamic and entertaining space where to spend your Saturday with family and friends. 

Live music to keep the spirit high, original nipo-brasilian dishes and plenty of tropical cocktails. What’s not to love? 

If you are interested in joining our party, don’t forget to pre-book a ticket as we will only accept reservations on that day.

Posh Cockney is always in search of exciting and original ways to market their clients. The Temakinho brunch is only one of the many initiatives we have developed this year. If you are interested in finding out more about the campaigns Posh Cockney could develop for your business, get in touch today.

Summer 2021 is fast approaching and we want to share with you some of the most exciting and highly anticipated food festivals that are coming our way. We no longer have to witness those empty streets, closed businesses or cancelled events- it’s time to fill those calendars. You don’t want to miss out on these perfect foodie days out!
