131 January Marketing Ideas To Boost Your Sales In 2023

Holidays, no matter how obscure or strange, can be excellent marketing tools as well as a springboard for ideas.

What better excuse to send an email to your list than to remind them that today is National Peanut Butter Day, and if they tell you why they like creamy better than chunky or vice versa, they get a 21% discount off your product?

National Backward Day might be a time to offer your products at backward prices ($79 instead of $97, for example.)

National Hangover Day? Send them your own personal hangover cure. If you don’t have one, make it up with humor.

If you have red hair, then on National Kiss a Ginger Day you might wear a t-shirt or carry a sign that tells people it’s Kiss a Ginger Day and make a video of yourself in a public place trying to get air kisses or handing out Hershey Kisses. 

The ideas are boundless and many of these offer excellent chances to inject humor into your marketing.

The more serious causes are even easier; simply give your readers a tiny education or story about the cause and let them know you’re donating a certain percentage of all sales made that day.

In the list of holidays, I’m also including hashtags to help you with your social media marketing as well, so that you can pick up some new subscribers from your holiday campaigns.
