Aim: A night out with friends or family all require the perfect location. Our app will enable users to search and book reservations UK wide!
My names Callum Morrison and I’m the CEO & Owner of VIPR Official. When booking a night out with friends or family more specifically in the nightlife sector you have to phone or book via the establishments PR directly in order to secure your reservation. Now, from booking beauty appointments to dinner dates - it can 9 times out of 10 be done online as the hospitality world is keeping up with the times. So why hasn’t the nightlife industry? There’s nothing worse than a last minute night out being made, and not having a concrete reservation on where your night will be begin or spent! The idea dawned on me when I was visiting Manchester for the first time with my girlfriend - we didn’t know which bars were best to visit, which ones would be our scene but most of all which ones would have the availability. The idea of VIPR, is to be the Virtual Public Relations manager right at the palm of your hand, giving you a VIP experience not only during your night out, but also when booking your night out. Our app aims to use a location based search with a variety of filters available ensuring you and your party enjoy the hard earned night out after a long week at work. Listening to your favourite music whether it may be in a cocktail bar, a night club, a pub with live music or a live events venue! Our app has multiple benefits and plenty of information for your desired night out. From how busy a venue is, to the type of music they play & the type of drinks and hospitality they offer. Our vision is to bring the nightlife industry up to speed with the current times and have end users being able to plan and organise their night out with just a few clicks of a button. Our system connects you directly to the venues on our app in live time ensuring no double bookings occur & your night will go as smooth as possible! So far, through personal savings I’ve invested just shy of £60,000 - this has achieved multiple milestones such as a pitch deck & business plan, a landing page, a brand refresh & an offline clickable prototype. We are now at the stage where we are wanting to launch by the end of 2024 and the money raised will be used to develop the live Web & App which will allow all of our end users to make memories for life. We will also use the funds for the best marketing strategies to ensure when we launch, we take off! Thank you for reading.
