Purity Brewing Co. is looking to draw on the knowledge of its
Twitter followers to help it win new contracts.
Purity wants its followers to contact the brewery via the
popular micro-blogging site and recommend off-trade and on-trade
locations they think Purity's ales should be sold. These could be
traditional real ale pubs, bars, hip city centre cafés, or
even theatres and event venues.
In return, Purity will offer a case of ale to any Twitter
follower whose recommendation leads to a new contract being signed.
Currently, Purity has almost 1,000 Twitter followers.
Earlier this year, the independent Warwickshire brewery won
contracts at two Birmingham venues - the coffee shop, Urban Coffee
Co, and The Electric Cinema - after a number of Twitter users
posted tweets recommending Purity's ales be sold there.
Paul Halsey, Purity's managing director, said: "In the past
year, we've been really successful using social media to raise our
brand profile, encourage more people to try our ales and win new
contracts.
"While our three award-winning ales are today sold in over 400
on-trade and off-trade premises in the Midlands, London and East
Anglia, I'm keen to take things to the next level and I really
think our Twitter followers can help."
