Wonderful digital marketing campaigns for Valentine's Day
Valentine’s Day is a unique marketing opportunity for various sectors, but it can be extra useful for retail. In this article, you will find a few ways and examples that your retail store can benefit from on Valentine’s Day.
- Offer in-store / traffic generating discount coupons
When couples come over to your retail store, make sure you can reward them on Valentine’s Day. Digital coupons are a great solution for this. With Coupontools, you can design wonderful, Valentine-themed digital coupons.
- In-store
Provide store visitors the opportunity to score a digital discount coupon while strolling through your store. For example, display posters with QR codes or let them send a text message to a shortcode. In response, they'll receive a message with your coupon URL included. The value doesn't need to be as high as for traffic generating digital coupons because those people are already in your store and will be happy with any discount.
- Traffic generating
Distribute your digital coupons through your existing communication channels such as SMS, Email, Social Media, website, app,... Compared to in-store discounts, this coupon should be more valuable to stimulate people to make an effort to visit your store. Another approach can be that you launch a digital coupon with a discount of 25% that is worth 50% on Valentine's day.
- In-store
- Offer gamified coupons
