6 Tips to Get Your Business Holiday-Ready
Facebook BusinessHoliday season is upon us and for many businesses, it’s the busiest time of year. Give your creative a holiday twist this season with our simple tips and tricks you can tackle in less time than it takes to decorate the tree.
Create gift guides
Position your product or service as a gift by using different personas in your posts and ads. For example, try sharing different gift ideas for mom, dad, sister, and friends.
Share gifts in every price range
To inspire audience consideration, showcase a variety of price ranges, discounts, and special offers. Learn how to create an offer from your Facebook Page.
Add holiday flair
Try adding a holiday background, sticker, or emoji to your posts and stories. You can also use GIFs in stories to add an extra layer of holiday spirit. Search for: “cs holiday” for a full holiday sticker pack for Instagram Stories. Learn more about Stories.
Use your product to create holiday specific visuals
Make your product feel gift-worthy. Consider making an unboxing video using ‘Stop Motion’ or ‘Hyperlapse’. You can also create a photo version just by placing your product in an open gift box.
Plan a holiday event
Whether it's for a sale, a party, or some other occasion, a holiday event can be a great way to connect with people in the real world and get them to visit your business. Learn more about creating an event from your Facebook Page.
Encourage customers to share the holiday cheer

Learn more about how Shari increased sales over the holidays in Milton & Goose’s success story.
