It’s beginning to look a lot like…

November 27, 2018 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

You’re not done decorating your resale, consignment, or thrift shop for the holidays until you

switch out your Facebook cover photo.

Santa's sleigh in the consignment shop parking lot.

Sneaky subliminal message: It’s easy to park at my place, and Santa shops here so you should too.

It’s easy to do. Here’s some freebies.

  • Coverize.me
  • Crosscards.com
  • Coverlayout.com
  • And there’s always Canva and Picmonkey and Crello, of course.

Remember, if you have 5 minutes to add your shop info to a stock photo, you’ll turn a pretty picture into a

virtual billboard.

More on the subject? Coming right up:

  • Here’s some great non-seasonal Facebook covers (and one REALLY BAD one.)
  • In case you missed it, turning your FB photos into a magic wand for SEO. Even the sharpest operators miss this one.
  • Don’t know what to choose for a cover photo? You know I’d tell youto use a photo of the outside of your shop (if you missed my point, it’s here. ) Here’s an app that can make the most boring exterior truly mind-blowing.
