TIP JAR IDEAS FOR BARTENDERS
To my fellow bartenders, this blog article is for you!
It should come as no surprise that one of the most prized possessions of a bartender is the tip jar that he has! For after all, who doesn’t love to be rewarded a little extra for a job perfectly done?
Well, as it just so happens, the right tip-jar also increases the chances of a bartender to receive a better tip overall! So, having a good, attractive tip jar is something that lots of bartenders actually do!
As such, here are a few ideas that you simply cannot miss checking out, some ideas that can easily make tip jars more tip-worthy!
- Decorated Tip Jars: One of the main tricks that you can use is to decorate your tip jar well. A decorated tip jar receives much more tips than undecorated ones. And of course, a uniquely decorated tip jar naturally catches the eye of patrons much more, resulting in substantially greater tips overall!
- Using Memes: A lot of bartenders also use memes- they print them out and stick them on the tip jars. Memes like “Y U NO TIP” often have a great effect on the amount of tips that a bartender receives, so that’s yet another method that one can use.
- Using Puns: Again, using puns is another way to catch the eye of patrons. Plus, making them laugh is always a good way to bolster your image as a bartender and eventually receive more tips both from tourists and regulars. I once tipped a bartender myself when I saw something along the lines of “Are you Tip-sy?” on their tip jar!
- Vintage Tip Jars: While this technically falls within the category of decorated tip jars, this still deserves to have a special mention of its own. It has been noticed that a lot of bar frequenters love vintage stuff. So, having vintage tip jar might result in a greater number of tips than usual.
These are some of the most efficient methods that bartenders can and do use in order to get more tips than they would without using them. And honestly, since they make the patrons happy as well, it’s a win-win situation at the end of the day!
