Unique holiday campaigns can get 4.5x more social engagement
An unexpected take on any holiday marketing campaign elicits a stronger response than the usual cliche ads, prompting your followers to participate.
Focus your Valentine’s Day marketing campaigns on self-love instead of coupledom, or try shying away from the usual family-centric messaging on Christmas to catch your followers off guard:
- LL Bean took a fun approach to the 12 Days of Christmas, changing it to the #12daysofpuppies for an Instagram campaign. Their creative Christmas Eve puppy image earned them 4.5x more likes compared to a traditional pumpkin photo posted for Halloween.
- Starbucks’ #redcupcontest pulled in 40,000 entries by inviting customers to create their own designs, instead of using cliche holiday images.
Create a social media campaign that invites a broader range of consumers to participate and connect with your brand by expanding tired holiday messaging. Invite participants to tag their friends and leave comments.
