4th of July is the day when Americans celebrate independence, the rights of the individual, and the pursuit of happiness. 

 

It is also another opportunity for merchants to launch a special holiday-themed campaign. 

 

Where to begin? The best time to start your Independence Day campaign would be right after Father’s Day. 4th of July is usually associated with summer, patriotism, happy memories, and quality time with friends and family. Traditionally, some of the most purchased items will be fireworks (!), BBQ food and supplies, home & garden decorations, sports and outdoor equipment.

 

But even if your store products don’t fit the Family-Fun-Food trinity, you can still think of a way to flaunt your latest summer collection. Launch a text marketing campaign combining uplifting and cheerful holiday-themed text copy with red, white, and blue visuals to gently push your subscribers’ emotional and patriotic buttons. Don’t forget to add a sense of urgency to let them know your juicy summer offers are valid for a limited time only.

 

This 4th of July, bring the spirit of Independence to your store with our 11 holiday-themed SMS templates!
