Mother’s Day

This year, Mother’s Day falls on May 12th, and is a great opportunity for businesses to reach out to families and market their products or services as the ultimate Mother’s Day experience. 

Flowers, food and gifts are all items commonly associated with Mother’s Day. If you’re a small business owner, tap into Mother’s Day by marketing the organization as family-friendly and eager to help out in any way to celebrate.

 

Memorial Day

Memorial Day is May 27th this year, and though it may be towards the end of the month, now is a great time to get started on promoting sales and giveaways. 

With most offices being closed that day, the 3-day weekend is the perfect opportunity to market items to people who are usually at work. Start advertising your Memorial Day sales and promotions early to see how many customers and clients can be brought in.

 

End of School

Of course, May marks the end of another successful school year for students of all ages. Celebrate by marketing end of the school year promotions! No matter what a business’s products or services are, there’s a way to reach out to students—elementary through college—and especially their parents. 

How can you get them prepared for summer? What do you have to offer to celebrate the end of the year? Search the organization for these answers and then market them to consumers.

 

Graduations

With the end of the school year comes the inevitable graduations, a perfect opportunity for businesses to tap into the new batch of adults leaving their parents’ nests. What can businesses offer to new graduates to help get them prepared for summer and the following fall? 

By marketing products and services like these, small businesses are able to gain new clients in recent graduates, who will continue to come back for years to come.

 

Weddings
