Theme your social media posts

A Valentine’s inspired social media post could really help boost your brand. Especially as consumers are likely to check their social media feed on this day.

Therefore why not reach out to your target audience by creating Valentine’s themed social media posts. You can do this by simply placing an image of the product you want to promote in a heart-shaped surround, or even superimposing the item in front of a sunset backdrop for a fun way to entice your customers. To create even more impressions, run Valentine’s themed competition. The prize does not need to be expensive, but you must ensure the entry mechanism and any terms and conditions are clear, for example, if the entry is only valid in the UK.

Alternatively, if you want to promote a specific item, any Valentine’s sales related messaging must have a strong call to action, plus don’t forget to include a link to the product landing page on your website.

So there you have it, by adding Valentine’s inspired theme to your ecommerce site this February, will not only show your target audience you are a warm and friendly business to deal with but also set you apart from your competitors.
