Analyze Previous Years
Before you dive into all things marketing, take a step back and analyze what worked and what didn’t in previous years.
If this is your first year, take a look at current trends and competitors to get a better idea of where to concentrate your energy. Is your competitor emphasizing social media or email?
When it comes to marketing you have to be bold, follow what your competitors are doing, and add to it. Figure out a way to authentically brand your business to stand out among the crowd.
Create a Promo
You will want to broadcast all the lovey-dovey vibes to the universe, whether it is through your site banners or email funnel.
Typically you can start seeing Valentine’s Day products in-store by the second week of January. So get on board and start early.
Time moves fast. Don’t miss this window of opportunity to introduce new designs or give Valentine’s Day discounts to increase the traffic to your site.
Here are a few things you can implement for Valentine’s Day:
- Move your top-selling/new products to a more visible place on your site (keep it one or two clicks away)
- Always market CustomCat’s Personalization Tool. It’s a great way to keep your target market on your site longer (stumble upon on a variety of products)
- Send an unexpected gift after a customer purchases a product (a coupon, free tee, etc.)
- Run a Valentine’s Day Contest (this is a great way to connect and build relationships with customers)
