Businesses aren’t just capitalizing on March Madness this spring; they also are seeing green with their social media efforts around Saint Patrick’s Day. There is a lot of competition, and taking advantage of holiday promotion and content is key to standing out.
Content
Now is the perfect time to develop a schedule to help build up the holiday’s promotion. It’s helpful to post content that your followers like, and while that might not always be the case, we recommend you look at your previous reports and analytics to see which past holiday posts performed the best.
Promotion
If your company sells a product or service, this is a great opportunity to run a social media promotion. You can create holiday-themed landing pages or even a fun St. Patty’s-themed video. The secret to creating good content is telling a compelling story. Sometimes building that relationship with your clients requires you to give away something to get buy-in. You don’t have to give a product away for free; a discount, promo code, or even a contest giveaway can be impactful. In return, you can ask for something as little as following your social media pages to enter. This will build your brand’s following and credibility.
Team Photo
You don’t need to be selling a product to celebrate big events with your fans. Holidays like St. Patty’s is the perfect time to show off your company culture. One of the easiest things you can do is share a team photo of your entire staff dressed in green. Showing off company morale is great for clients and potential employees to see what goes on behind the scenes.
