Loyal customers – do you have people in your customer group who often make purchases in your online store? Prepare a personalized Valentine’s offer for them.

Influencers – try to use influencer marketing. Contact opinion leaders tailored to your target group and suggest Valentine’s Day gifts 🙂

Remember a few rules:

Contact influencers with personalized messages. The more general the message, the less chance of a positive response.
Don’t force influencers on specific forms of cooperation: if you count on free advertising, leave the decision to the author. Your task is to prepare a really attractive, recommendable package that will stand out from others.
If you don’t have a huge marketing budget, bet on reliable microinfluencers. Increasingly, we trust them more than the most popular creators in the network cooperating for a fee and only with large brands.
