99 December Marketing Ideas to Boost Your Sales

If there’s one month that’s filled to the brim with holiday festivities, it’s December. Between Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s Eve, there’s always something to use for your marketing campaigns.

For example, you’ve just got to do something with the, “Festival of Enormous Changes at the Last Minute” day. No matter what kind of ‘how to’ products you’re selling, this day is tailor made for a sales campaign.

Then there’s app day, ‘cookie day, and cat herders day. You can have all kinds of fun with those.

What if you send out two emails each day during the month of December? Each day you pick one theme, send out an email in the morning with the campaign for that day and a reminder in the afternoon.

For example, “Believe it or not, today is Cat Herders’ Day. Send me a photo of your cat for 10% off the ABC product. Send a photo of your cat with you in the picture and I’ll give you 20% off. Send me your cat and the product is free. JUST KIDDING about that last one, do not send me your kitty!”

Have fun with these and your audience will enjoy receiving and reading your emails.

And they’ll respond with clicks and sales, too.
