Dec…orate Your Social Platforms

 

Dressing for the festive season on social media can be as simple as adding an emoji to your Twitter handle, or even just changing your banner image! Whether your business is a shop or a venue, you can still show off your Christmas decorating skills! Put the spotlight on your in-office ornaments or grab some Santa hats and get your team to pose for a group photo, you just need to make sure everyone’s smiling!

If you want to get extra Christmassy, add a little Santa hat to your logo. This can be done quickly and easily using a website like Canva. Whatever you decide to do, we’re sure it’ll get your followers in the mood for the upcoming festivities.

 

Give Your Followers A Gift

 

There’s nothing better than giving someone a gift, so why not do just that for your followers this December? There are a number of options to choose from: one large draw with a main prize, a giveaway with different prize tiers or an ongoing competition with several small prizes over a number of days. The latter is perfect for a ‘12 Days of Christmas’ theme, of course, and instead of starting on Christmas Day, start on Monday the 13th and finish on Christmas Eve. How about that? 

You don’t necessarily need to sell products to do a giveaway either. You could offer a percentage off certain services, a free consultation or something just as valuable, it just depends on what your business has to offer.

 

Create A Gift Guide

 

Gift guides are absolute lifesavers for people who don’t know where to start. Finding several products in one place? And they’re all from your business? Perfect! 

With a gift guide, you can showcase some of the wonderful products you have to offer, whilst gently encouraging people to fill up their baskets. Gift guides can come in the form of blogs, Instagram posts or even videos, if you don’t mind getting in front of the camera. Don’t forget, if you offer a vast array of products or services, go for it and create a series! If you’re friends with other local business owners, it’d pay to team up. That way, everyone gets a bit of promo and hopefully some customers in return, it’s a win-win!

 

Make It Personal

 

We don’t mean take revenge on a shark or anything but sometimes, you’ve just gotta make things personal. Your engaging social media posts don’t have to be 100% business every single day, especially during the holiday season! 

Your followers will love seeing the people behind your business, so if you and your team are doing some Christmas crafts, yuletide baking or anything else festive, you should share it with the world. If you have a Christmas playlist on in your shop that you’re particularly enjoying, post the link and spread the Christmas cheer to all you hold dear.
