As the winter season approaches, businesses have a unique opportunity to infuse their marketing strategies in line with the seasonal time of year. Winter Wonderland Marketing is more than just a catchy phrase; it’s a chance to connect with your audience on a deeper, more emotional level. In this blog post, we’ll explore creative and engaging seasonal marketing campaigns that can elevate your brand during the winter months.
CONTENT CREATION
We may be over Christmas and the festive period, but there is still plenty of interesting wintery content that can be covered in January. Embracing winter-themed content creation for your business provides a unique opportunity to connect with your audience during the colder season.
We recommend creating content that resonates with the cosy and festive vibes of winter. It’s interesting and relatable! If you’re struggling to come up with anything, and need some inspiration, then feel free to use some of these:
- Blog posts featuring winter products – If you’re a clothing brand, then advertising the latest line of wooly jumpers is incredibly fitting. Additionally, if you’re a cafe in Kent, then focusing on your seasonal hot chocolate will be the perfect feature in a blog post.
- Behind-the-scene content of your business and your team enjoying winter activities, and guides on making the most of the season. It could even be something as simple as going for a wintery walk and sharing your recommended walking routes. Utilising media content in the form of videos and images will effectively capture the enchantment of winter on your social media channels.
- Don’t forget to take note of any seasonal national days that are relevant to your business. Whether it be for National Soup Day in February or Winter Solstice Day, it could be relevant content to include in your seasonal marketing campaigns.
ANYONE FOR A SPECIAL OFFER?
January is notoriously known as a slow month for businesses due to a number of factors. Post-Christmas exhaustion, tightened budgets after festive spending, and New Year resolutions often focused on saving money collectively contribute to a decline in consumer spending. However, savvy businesses can turn this perceived lull into an opportunity by strategically offering special deals and promotions.
By providing enticing discounts, limited-time special offers, or exclusive bundles, businesses can capture the attention of cost-conscious consumers and stimulate purchasing decisions. So if you’re offering a 2 for 1 discount on your products, or even on a service, this could be a vital part of your seasonal marketing campaigns.
Go one step further, and set up a competition / giveaway. If you need to promote a particular product or service, then during the wintery months could be a win win for you!
COLLABORATE WITH INFLUENCERS
When sales hit a low in January, it’s the perfect time to collaborate with local influencers to advertise your business. Set up seasonal marketing campaigns and invite influencers along. Promoting your products, and connecting with other local businesses and individuals will increase your engagement.
Don’t forget to share their content on your socials, and tag them in yours!
