How do I run a January Club?

Give people a reason to go out again once the festive spending stops. Switch this one on for January and off again once it’s over.

Set it up

Anything the menu marks Off shows Switched off when you open it: press Switch on and set it up (on a phone, + Add more lists them). Changes wait for Save in the bar at the bottom of the page, or at the top right of an offer’s full-screen editor on a phone.

1. The January set menu, with a pudding. In Your club, under What members get, press Weekly & monthly offers. Choose Same every time, then Set price. In What they get, write “a two-course set menu, with a complimentary dessert on weekdays”. In What they pay, enter your member price. Under When it repeats, set Repeat every to 1 week and tick your weekdays. Under How long they have, choose Custom… and 1 day.
2. The dry-January serve. Press Add another standing offer. Choose Same every time, then Free item, and write “a selected alcohol-free drink” as the item, repeating every day you open. Press Save.
3. January table priority. Press Club perks in the menu, then Add a perk, with a Heading such as “We keep our cosy midweek tables free for members in January”. Press Done, then Save.

What members get

The January set menu with pudding on weekdays, a free alcohol-free drink every day you open, and a cosy midweek table kept free for them.

What your staff need to know

Both standing offers show ready to give on the days you’ve picked. Table priority is a Club perk with nothing to redeem: keep a couple of tables back on quiet midweek nights.

How you’ll know it’s working

The Weekly & monthly offers card shows how many of its offers were claimed this month. Turn its switch off once January’s over — see How do I add, change or turn off an offer?
