2. Cook up a few Halloween-themed graphics
Bring out your company’s spooky side with a few custom graphics to get into the holiday spirit.
3. Send Halloween-themed e-mails
A selection of spirited emails will help to drive brand awareness with potential customers.
4. Have a Halloween costume photo contest
Show off the costume you will be wearing this year to show your company’s personality, and ask your followers to do the same. Offer a prize to incentivize more people to engage with your profile.
