Lighting up the year!

by | Jun 15, 2012 | Event Planning

The Fourth of July is the one day of the year we remember what our country was founded on.  In an effort to honor our nation’s independence, show customers you care by trying these easy Fourth of July promotions that will light up the whole year.

Raffle off a Fourth of July basket…

Make a patriotic basket that contains in-store coupons and popular items from your store.  Display the basket near the entrance and sell the raffle tickets at the counter.  Announce the winner the week of July fourth.

Host a Fourth of July Facebook photo contest…

While hosting a contest on Facebook is prohibited, using a third party ap is a great way to connect with your customers online and bring traffic to your page.  The contest guidelines can be customized to fit your store.  Costume contests, for example, can be customized to fit any retail setting.  Post the photos to your page so users can like their favorites.  The photo with the most likes wins.  Award the winner by featuring their photo in your next catalog or advertisement.*

Support your local military

Find a local organization that supports military families.  Ask customers to make a donation at the register.  Display the names of customers who have donated throughout the store.   This encourages your customers and the community to honor a soldier that fought for our freedom.

Kick off America’s Birthday by taking advantage of these easy promotions that will be remembered all year long!
