In my AUTUMN creative business camp forum I've shared a few more posts & discussions on planning for the holidays including new PDF workbooks, journal cards and tabs {photo above} for your creative business notebook. Today's ACBC holiday planning post delves into 25 ideas to jumpstart your holiday social media promotion. As you know social media can be used in many ways to promote and market your business. Here are five of the 25 ideas...
<<<<< FIVE holiday social media promotion ideas >>>>>
IDEA #1: create a Pinterest board of interesting DIY holiday ideas including holiday decor, holiday recipes or patterns. Add in a few of pins from your own site to promote your handmade holiday items. create a collaborative board and invite others to add pins.
<<<<< photos of DIY project in process>>>>>
IDEA #2: share a photo of a DIY holiday project in process on Facebook or IG. Last holiday season, I shared this photo via Instagram of my handmade pompoms and fiber crocheted garland Christmas tree decorations.
<<<<< sales promotion codes>>>>>
IDEA #3: offer special holiday sales promotion codes on all your social media outlets. TIP: provide different promo codes for each promotion so it's easier to track which promotions your audience respond to. For this promo code I used "holiday20tweet" for Twitter and "holiday20fb" for Facebook. Make sure to share the rules of your promo code in your post.
<<<<< HOLIDAY giveaways>>>>>
IDEA #4: put together a special HOLIDAY giveaway and promote in via all your social media outlets. Last year, I put together a box full of goodies of my favorite art supplies and gave it away on my blog for Thanksgiving as a thank you for all my lovely blog readers. What kind of fun giveaway can you offer your audience? think about creating different giveaways for each social media audience. Maybe a digital download for the 20th person who retweets a tweet. Experiment with different engaging ideas to interact with your audience.
<<<<< HOLIDAY blog button>>>>>
IDEA #5: design a holiday branded blog button for your holiday blog series and encourage your readers to join in the blog series by adding the blog button to their sites. Also, the branded blog button is a great image for people to use when pinning your DIY tutorials or blog series. The image below is one of the blog buttons I created for my {24} HOLIDAY inspirations blog series.
