Countdown to Christmas – food for thought?
Christmas is the perfect time to show your customers just how much you value their business.
Unfortunately, many business fail to fully capitalise on the season of goodwill and they can endanger the happiest time of the year.
With only 34 days until the big day, here are a few simple ideas to help you make Christmas 2014 go with a bang!
Christmas postcards
The card itself should be tasteful and professional with a nice photo titled “Happy Holidays” or “Merry Christmas” wishing them all the best.
Digital Christmas e-cards
Good old email marketing is still a more-than-viable option for sending your message around in the holiday season.
Decorate online
Your shop is not the only place that your customers can view your business. Make sure to spruce up your website, social media and any other online mediums.
Give away a little Christmas cheer
It may be as simple as handing out free hot chocolate or candy cane to customers. You could link this in with your social media to drive traffic to your business.
Christmas sales
Every business offers sales during the Christmas season. It is what you do with those sales that makes the difference. Up the ante, push the envelope a little and get creative!
Christmas advertising
Having a great sale is one thing but you need to get the word out! Email, newspapers, magazines, posters, radio, TV, social media. The options are endless.
Hold an event
You should plan at least one or two major Christmas events at your store. Make it a nice big occasion that will encourage customers to spend money, but also have fun. Make sure to inform customers about your event using email or social media.
Hold a competition
Holding a contest is a premier way to draw visitors to your social accounts or website. Get it right and you can secure not only hefty amounts of traffic, but also loyal followers and even customers.
