💘 Here’s What You’ll Find:

 

First Things First: Establish Your Goals

Needless to say, every time you plan a campaign or a Valentine’s sale, you should follow a process to make it easier for you to keep growing:

  1. First, you need to establish your goals? What are you looking for from this sale? 
  2. Then plan and implement your sale! 
  3. When your sale is finished, make an evaluation of how it performed. Were you close to your goals? Did the results exceed your expectations? If they didn’t, did something go wrong or not as expected?
  4. Plan for your next sale with the new knowledge and make improvements.


When you get in the habit of working for this circle again and again, you can make amazing growth for your brand. 

💡 Setting your goals straight from the beginning makes it easier for you to choose which strategies to use.

10 Marketing Ideas for Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is a great opportunity to get creative and gather new ideas to build a Valentine’s Day sale! So let’s check 10 incredible actions you can implement this February to put your brand in the spotlight. 

1. Create a Valentine’s Collection 💖

Offer a themed collection of your products for your users. Bonus: use festive packaging! Even the smallest detail will be appreciated! You can offer t-shirts, hoodies, mugs, agendas, tote bags, phone cases, and so much more! 

💡 Using mockups to create your product images can really lift up your store’s quality!

 

2. Define Your Valentine’s Edge 💘

Valentine’s Day feelings in your customers may vary according to their romantic situation. This is why it’s a great practice to keep it open and celebrate different kinds of love!

💛 Galentine’s Day

Celebrate female friendships on February 13 with Galentine’s Day. Best friends, sisters, moms, daughters, and so on. 

💓 Celebrate Self-Love

Encourage your users to show some self-love, get something they want for themselves, share a selfie, etc. 

Check all the Valentine’s templates you can use from Placeit by Envato to build your products!

❤️‍🔥 Forever Singles

For a few years now, we’ve seen single people celebrate with humor that they have no partner on this day, and it’s ok! Give them something to celebrate their singleness. At Placeit, you can find incredible Singles Day templates to cover everything for this day. As well as Anti-Valentine’s Day assets for those against this romantic day. 

🐶 What About Loving Your Pet?

That’s right! This is too a holiday to show the fury ones some love. You can also offer themed products or special deals for your users to get presents for their pets! Remember, they are best friends too!

 

3. Offer Express Delivery 🚚

Consider your customer’s lack of gift planning on your side! Most people don’t plan to get their gifts with a lot of anticipation, so make sure you offer quick and efficient deliveries so they can get their gifts on time!

 

4. Send an Email Blast 💌

Let your customers know everything about your sale on a Valentine’s spirited email blast!

Start with a hot subject line that catches your user’s interest. You should use emojis and customize your email as much as you can. Also, set a clear call to action right before your introductory text. On your body, you can add:

  • Your themed promotions,
  • A Happy Valentine’s card,
  • Make your reader feel valued! Throw in a gift or a special deal for your newsletter subscribers.
