The holidays are just around the corner, and you know what that means. Family, parties, gifts, and emotions. It’s possible to have your holiday marketing and shipping strategies locked down and totally figured out without planning for the time you’re not working. Let’s go through some tips to help us all enjoy the holidays!
You may not be ready for Christmas music and holiday decorations, but that shouldn’t apply to your marketing. If you don’t have a holiday marketing strategy, this could be your last chance before things get busy and you run out of time for marketing.
Whether you’re building a massive holiday campaign or something small, these tips can help you have a successful holiday season. Remember to connect with people instead of just throwing ads and discounts in their faces. Think about the businesses you buy from and the relationships you have with them.
The holidays are coming up and before you know it, you’ll have packages that need to be shipped out NOW! Here are some tips and key dates to remember to stay on top of holiday shipping for your customers.
Your best bet is to ship as much as you can, as soon as you can. We know that can’t always be possible, so the next step is to be prepared!
