As the leaves begin to turn and the air grows crisp, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of the impending holiday season. But before you start shelling out for eggnog and Christmas cookies, there’s one important question you need to ask yourself: Is your business ready for the winter?
Unfortunately, many businesses let their marketing efforts go dormant during the winter months and with holiday shopping in full swing and people spending more time indoors, it’s a critical time to make sure your business is visible and relevant.
Season’s Changing
Just because the leaves are falling doesn’t mean your business has to as well. If you ever feel like your company is stuck in a rut, then now is the perfect time to change things up and start fresh. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
Tis The Season To Be Social
The holidays are all about spending time with family and friends, so why not reflect that on your business’s social media channels?
Host a holiday-themed contest or giveaway, post festive photos or videos, or simply wish your followers a happy holiday season. This is also a great time to take advantage of social media ads to boost your reach. Or you could take the shortcut so you could enjoy your own holiday celebrations and hire someone like Crunchy Lemons to do the work for you with our SEO service.
Deck The (Digital) Halls
Make sure your website is ready for holiday traffic by giving it a festive makeover.
- Add holiday-themed banners or images
- Update your Copywriting to reflect seasonal promotions or deals
- Create dedicated landing pages for any special offers you’re running.
This will not only make your site more visually appealing, but also help improve your conversion rates.
