Seasonal campaigns are a great way to promote your business and create more customer engagement. It is the time of the year to announce some sizzling deals, fun outdoor events and some cool summer-themed giveaways. No matter what your product or service is, summer season promotion is a great way to heat up sales.
1.Make the most of the holidays
Summer is dotted with a lot of business-friendly holidays right from Memorial Day to Fourth of July and  Back to School among many others. Marketers can think of a themed event, product launch or special holiday sale to draw attention of the audience.
Discount coupons and special sales are a rage. Send news letters to your regular customers to inform them of exclusive events and offerings so that they do not miss the hot deals. You can also take up an aggressive social media campaign with a holiday-themed hashtag to boost engagement.
2.Outdoor marketing
Summer is the perfect time to come up with some interesting outdoor marketing tactics. Stick a few full color car magnets on your sales vehicle or get a few beach umbrellas imprinted with your brand and message to spread the word and get people talk about your summer sales. Locate some busy outdoor areas where these logo items will get easily noticed.
3.Fun & Festival contests
Run a fun contest in your store or at popular festivals and carnivals. Collect the  contact information  of the attendees in return for a chance to win a prize. You have a great mailing list to follow up once the festival is over.
4.Give Back to the Local Community
Strengthen your association with the local community by giving back to non-profits, charities, and other local groups. You can use a percentage of your sales or profits to sponsor an event or help others. It will go a long way in highlighting your social commitment.
- Summer themed giveaways
Who doesnât like freebies? Â It is probably one of the best ways to increase consumer engagement and boost your social media following.

Your brand and message imprinted on these will get a lot of attention for sure.
- Sidewalk sales/ misters
If your store stands in a busy shopping area, organize a sidewalk sale that will get people in. It is a great way to make your stores popular among the busy crowd. You can even set up sidewalk misters on the hottest days that will be a big relief for people in a scalding hot day. Do not forget to hand out small custom gifts like mints or custom sunglasses to keep the audience engaged.
