The Most Successful Summer Advertising Hacks Your Competitors Don’t Want You To Know About
Come summertime, everyone is in a better mood, and your audience is no exception. If you’ve been suffering through a dip in sales, then there’s nothing better than warm weather to heat your sales strategy back up again. Here are three tried-and-tested ways to market your business under the summer sun and get people sweating over what you have to offer:
- Planning: What are the major holidays this summer? In other words, what opportunities do you have to sell more online by showing your human side and holiday spirit? Plan and create thoughtful campaigns that build up to certain holidays over the course of several weeks – with your product or service being the ultimate “must-have” this season.
- Contests: Everyone loves to win. While giveaways might seem like a standard marketing technique, there’s a reason they’re so popular – and there’s a reason why they work. You can customize an exciting giveaway to suit your business, your audience, and the season, and while it may seem like a loss to give something away for free, just think of the customers you’ll earn and the sales you’ll make.
- Freebies: You might say we’re crazy for telling you to give away even more free stuff, but trust us – we’ve seen it 1000 times. Companies that give away free stuff are seen differently by their audience. One free drink with a meal – or a free birthday dinner altogether – could (and probably will) lead to a lot more future sales.
