THE GATEKEEPER
Social Media | Website | Photography
We were approached by the new owners of a local pub, The Gatekeeper, and asked to help them re-design their brand and give them a fresh look online. This was an exciting task for the DRIVE team - as it always is when we are giving the chance to be creative.
We firstly worked on getting access to the previous owners website and social media accounts - this was important to ensure the following was maintained. Once this was achieved we were able to optimise the social media pages with new branding as below.
We also produced a brand new SEO friendly website for the new owners to promote deals and offerings.
Throughout the global pandemic of 2020, The Gatekeeper sadly had to shut its doors for a vast majority of the time. Through this difficulty, DRIVE ensured that the social media remained positive and the local customers were always kept updated.

DRIVE has increased Whelan's social media engagement across all eight sites by an average of 170% and receive double the amount of Facebook messages than previously.
Whelan's approached us with a brief to expand their digital marketing efforts by managing their social media and designing a website for their chain of eight Irish traditional and premium pubs. We created video and graphic design content to engage with local people on Facebook and Instagram, as well as run paid advertising campaigns promoting sport, live music and seasonal events.
DRIVE has also produced an SEO-friendly website, with responsive design and carried out interior photography shoots for all eight pubs.
