The holiday season is here, and for our small business clients, it's a prime time to connect with customers, boost sales, and create memorable brand experiences. As we approach the end of 2024, new trends are shaping how businesses engage with consumers. Here's a look at five holiday marketing trends we’re leveraging to help our BIG DEAL Company small businesses stand out this year. Hyper-Personalized Marketing Consumers now expect more than just generic messages. Personalization is key to catching their attention. Leverage demographic data and customer interactions to send tailored holiday greetings, product or service recommendations, or special discounts based on purchase history. Email campaigns allow you to address potential customers by name; carefully managed email lists mean you can send various emails targeting different customer groups to ensure you’re offering personalized solutions to meet your audience’s needs. Community and Nonprofit Initiatives Consumers appreciate brands with strong values that give back, and the giving spirit is never stronger than during the holiday season. Use social media to show your audience how you’re giving back this season, and invite them to participate. Hosting a toy drive, supporting a local charity, or donating a portion of sales can deepen customer loyalty and spread goodwill. Consider offering a nonprofit donation at checkout, donating in-kind to nonprofit events, or sponsoring a holiday fundraiser and inviting your followers (customers) to join you. Collaborate on Social Media Collaborating with other small businesses or nonprofits in your area can amplify your reach. Joint promotions, pop-up markets, or cross-promotions on social media are great ways to build community spirit and drive traffic. This collaboration goes hand-in-hand with your support of community initiatives; be sure to mention any sponsorship of local charities and partnerships on initiatives that give back, tagging other small businesses and nonprofits along the way for increased visibility. Holiday-Themed Visuals and Messaging Holiday-themed images and posts are powerful tools for boosting small business marketing during the festive season. These visuals instantly capture the joyful spirit of the holidays, creating an emotional connection with your audience. By aligning your brand with the season’s mood, you can enhance engagement, increase visibility, and keep your business top-of-mind during the holidays. Adding festive imagery to your social media, email campaigns, and website creates a cohesive, celebratory experience that resonates with audiences. Prepare for Increased Customer Care Needs The holiday season often brings a surge in customer inquiries, purchases, and service needs. Think of this as an opportunity. Respond to comments on your social media pages and posts promptly, boosting your credibility and increasing the reach of your content (social platforms put popular posts in front of more people). Each time you respond to a private message on one of your pages, you’re demonstrating your commitment to excellent service; and, every face-to-face interaction can leave a lasting impression. Timely online interactions can turn inquiries into sales opportunities, as many customers use social platforms to seek immediate answers before making purchasing decisions. In a fast-paced digital world, quick responses can set your business apart and help you foster trust and engagement with your audience. The holiday season is a golden opportunity for small businesses to connect with customers in meaningful ways. By staying on top of these trends and tailoring your approach to your audience, you can create a memorable holiday marketing campaign that drives sales and builds loyalty.

Choosing sustainable alternatives minimizes the event’s carbon footprint and fosters a culture of environmental responsibility. Eco-friendly events are not only popular, they are required by some companies who are trying to reduce their carbon footprint. Here are the top 5 products to consider when planning your next event: 1. Biodegradable utensils and tableware 2. Compostable decorations 3. Reusable banners and signage 4. Recycled paper products 5. Eco-friendly cleaning supplies Biodegradable utensils and tableware are typically made from materials such as bamboo, agave, or cornstarch and are a great alternative to single use plastic. They decompose naturally and reduce the plastic waste that is produced by most events. Compostable decorations such as banners and signs can be made from recycled materials or natural fibers. Most reusable signs are durable and can be reused for many events. Consider signs that can be utilized at multiple events to help further reduce waste and keep items out of the landfills. Recycled paper products can be used for invitations, programs and other promotional materials to help conserve natural resources and reduce energy consumption with production. You may also want to consider using QR Codes with links to timelines to help in reducing waste. Finally, incorporating eco-friendly cleaning supplies or employing an eco-friendly cleaning company ensures that the post-event cleanup is as environmentally friendly as possible. Look for products that minimize the introduction of harmful chemicals into our ecosystems while promoting a healthier environment for your attendees and staff.
