Try These Spooky Halloween Social Media Posts!

Halloween is right around the corner, and now is the perfect time to come up with some spooky Halloween social media posts that will capture your audience's attention. Check out these scary good Halloween marketing ideas to elevate your seasonal content.

Start a Spooky Countdown

Countdowns work well on Instagram, and it is one of the easiest ways to engage your users. Countdown the days to Halloween with a scary post. In addition, you can ask your followers different questions, such as how they will celebrate Halloween or some trendy costume ideas. If you're offering discounts or deals, you can remind your audience, so they don't miss out.

Post a different post every day with new ways to engage. Such as a poll for their favorite candy or a Halloween quiz. Be sure to include the countdown on each post so that your audience can anticipate it.

Use Ghoulish Images

Social media audiences respond much better to visual content such as images, GIFs, and videos than plain text or link previews. Creating Halloween social media posts can be done in several ways. Create easy and fun seasonal content with these ideas:

  • Use Halloween puns
  • Decide on a color or theme (scary, cute, kid-friendly, etc.)
  • Post spooky images daily
  • Enhance your product photos with fun illustrations
  • Get your team to dress up and take pictures

Embrace The Spookiness!

Give your products a festive feel by featuring orange and black designs with cobwebs, bats, and pumpkins. We all love when our favorite products are redesigned with festive themes, especially at Halloween. Consider trying a limited-time or theme-based product as part of your Halloween marketing strategy. Customers love themed items, and they buy them to use at their parties or events.

Host a Frightening Event!

In the spooky month of October, there are many Halloween events and parties to attend. So don't miss out on the opportunity to organize a frightening online event and invite your followers to join it by sharing your event's date, time, and activities. You can offer your participants a 5% to 10% discount as an incentive to join. Marketers can benefit from hosting online events because they can promote their brands. As a result, you can attract more customers and make the business more festive during Halloween. Facebook groups are a great way to host events & invite your friends.

Don't Let Your Halloween Marketing Get Buried Alive!

We've given you four spooky, simple, and effective seasonal content ideas for your Halloween social media posts. We hope that you'll be able to implement at least one this year to boost engagement and sales! And don't forget about content repurposing when creating new content—there may be a way to add a new twist to an existing piece instead of starting from scratch.

Using Facebook for Business: The Basics

This past weekend, I was a guest speaker at a conference for chiropractors. I spoke for about 90 minutes on how to use Facebook and Instagram for your business. During (and after) my presentation I received a lot of questions from the group about how to schedule posts, share them, comment on them etc. This is all stuff I would consider basic, but it dawned on me that many people do not know how to do this so I created a demonstration video for the group. However, everything I am showing will apply to you guys as well so I wanted to share it with you.

Using Facebook Insights to Best Engage with your Audience

I've been writing all these blog posts lately explaining how to improve your social media presence, specifically on Facebook. And, coincidentally, I just spoke on one of my client's webinars to show their fanbase how to review Facebook insights to get the most out of their social media. So I pulled my portion of the webinar together into a video clip to share with you guys. You'll probably notice my dog barking in the background throughout...she gets just as fired up about marketing as I do and couldn't seem to help herself :) Hope you enjoy!
