Christmas Campaign Planning

Although the Christmas shopping season doesn’t technically begin until Black Friday, retailers typically start rolling out Christmas, and St. Stephen’s Day campaigns in early November. Have yours ready to go by early October so you have time to work out the final details.

Christmas Campaign Launch

Launch Christmas social media marketing campaigns by early November. Begin teasing St. Stephen’s Day campaigns at least a week before the shopping holiday.
