Beyond the Boost: Facebook & Instagram Ads Done Right for Pubs

Pub Marketing Unplugged: Stories, Strategies & Smart Tools by shaun mcmanus

Episode notes

Most landlords waste money hitting “boost” on a blurry pint photo and hoping punters show up. The result? 3 likes — usually from your mum, your bar manager, and one random bloke.

This episode is your Beyond the Boost playbook: how to stop wasting budget and start running Facebook & Instagram ads that actually sell pints, seats, and roasts.

We’ll cover: 🍻 Why boosting is dead in 2025. 📍 How to target locals within 2 miles — not the whole city. ⚽ Templates that fill quiz nights, match days, and roast slots. 📊 Real ROI case studies (£75 → £1,200+ sales). 🎯 How to track bookings, not likes.

If you’ve ever sworn ads don’t work for pubs — this will change your mind.
