Valentine’s Day presents an abundance of opportunities for business marketing. Many people celebrate Valentine’s Day and tend to spend a lot of money on their loved ones. This is the perfect time to leverage the holiday of love for your business. Here are some marketing strategies that are useful for eCommerce businesses.

Have a Valentine’s Day Sale

During Valentine’s Day, millions of consumers shop online and in stores for their significant others and family members. This is the best time for your business to send out promotional emails or come up with discounts on selected items specifically for Valentine’s Day. Customers love sales and involving holidays and offering coupons and deals is a sure way to bring traffic to your business.

 

Offer Benefits

Many stores offer Valentine’s Day discounts and deals; however, you can make your business stand out by offering incentives as well. These benefits could include free shipping on orders of a certain price, free shipping on all items until Valentine’s Day, or even gift wrapping for the holiday. You can also offer a gift with a purchase of a certain amount such as a tote bag or a festive T-shirt. These deals are the perfect Valentine’s Day marketing strategy for your business.

 

Promote Relevant Products for Valentine’s Day

Make sure that your website and business social media channels are flashing Valentine’s Day hearts and love. You want your products to stand out as Valentine’s gifts over birthday gifts or everyday items. If you focus on the theme of red, pink, and glitter, you can’t go wrong! Design special Valentine’s Day limited edition items that can’t be bought any other time of year. This will make your business stand out and can increase your sales.

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it is best to start promoting Valentine’s items quickly! This is the time of year when sales spike for businesses who have products relevant to the theme of love and hearts. Follow these marketing strategies for Valentine’s Day for your business and you won’t be sorry you did.
