So many Christmas marketing ideas, so little time…

November 22, 2008 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

If you haven’t written your holiday marketing in stone, or if you haven’t even thought about it, or if you are going to roll over and play dead in your consignment, resale, or thrift shop this year….

or if you for some reason have misplaced your Holidays in Resale, a Product for the Professional Resaler which you can get Pretty Darn Quick here

a list of some past ideas from here on Auntie Kate The Blog that might, just might, draw in all those folks who are now open to shopping secondhand, even for Christmas etc. gifts.

Also, be sure to visit HowToConsign.com, our consumer oriented web site with a Directory of wonderful shops across the continent and beyond for some “talking points” for your clientele. You’re welcome, as always, to direct your viewers to HTC but please respect my copyright.

On HowToConsign.com, written for your future customer:

  • Have yourself a Merry Thrifty Christmas
  • Try it, Yule Like It
  • And for those who need to clear out the guest room
  • Or freshen up their decor, on a budget, before the guests arrive

And ideas from here, the blog, for shopkeepers who want to help their clientele (as well as the rest of town!) to have a wonderful holiday:

  • Green Christmas
  • Ungreen Christmas
  • White Christmas?
  • Need a broadcast email postcard suggestion or two?
  • Trying to fight the department store 50-75% off ads?
  • Managing too much, then not enough, holiday goods
  • Ideas for your windows, your littlest shoppers, and more
  • Does your honey know what to buy you for Christmas?
  • And just for fun, my Light-up Santa, and tales of my angel in-laws and what they had to put up with and my current (polka-dot) Santa sleigh and other people’s Christmas lights

Hope all these resources help your shop have a great holiday selling season!
