3 Ideas for your St. Patrick’s Day promotions

Here are 3 recommended proposals to celebrate this holiday and engage your audience with a fun offer.

Entertain your audience with a St. Patrick’s Day Wheel and use the QR code.

Cheers to the people who love the wheel! And how could you not love it if it is very easy to create and use.

It also allows you to obtain data from your customers, which is essential to create and design your future email marketing campaigns.

We know that St. Patrick’s Day is a holiday that is celebrated, to a large extent, in bars and breweries, so….

Is Saint Patrick’s Day approaching and you don’t know how to celebrate it? Don’t you have the time to promote and prepare your raffle?

To make this March 17 less complicated, we recommend you to follow these steps:

1. Create a wheel to capture leads.
2. Generate the QR code and download it.
3. Engage your customers in your store by showing them the QR of your wheel.

This way, people who go to your brewery, for example, will be able to participate and win prizes instantly by scanning the QR code you generated.

St. Patrick’s Day promotion on Instagram.

The social network by excellence to run your giveaways and promotions.

Here there are two types of audience willing to participate:

• On the one hand, the shy audience that prefers traditional giveaway conditions, such as tags and mentions.

• And on the other hand, the audience willing to join different challenges. If you are this lucky, you can take the giveaway further and make it a condition to participate that users post a photo wearing something green, for example. You can ask them to upload those photos to their Instagram stories, tagging your account with a fun #hashtag.

If you know your audience, you’ll know if you can encourage them to take their commentary beyond tagging their friends and give these holidays an extra twist to push social media engagement.
