Valentine’s Day isn’t just for your significant other! Settle down and cosy up, it’s time to show your customers, clients and fans some love with our guide to Valentine’s Day promotions for businesses. If marketing be the food of love, promote on…
You’ve Got Mail

Two For One
It’s always a nice touch to offer a double-up offer at Valentine’s Day. Meal for two, two for the price of one – means you can treat the couples without forgetting the singles. Love all round!
Tell us what you want, what you really want
Polls on social media can be a great way to learn more about your customer’s needs and desires, which in turn, can be used to drive future marketing campaigns. Ask for feedback on what they love, what they want to see more of, and even what turns them off. Feedback is everything.

Postman’s here!
In this digital age, it can be really nice to receive a little gift and card through the post. According to industry research, 70% of consumers feel appreciated and valued when they receive printed mail.
We can help your customer get that warm and fuzzy feeling too.
So, how did you two meet?
User-Generated Content (UGC) is the best way for a brand to increase its viral reach (or how many people see its content through social media. Ask your fans to share their love stories for a chance to win your competition.
Sharing the love
Think of a way you can give back to a local charity or cause through customer purchases during your campaign. Pizza Express do this really well with their Venice In Peril partnership where a percentage of each sale of a Pizza Veneziana is donated back to the charity. They’ve raised £2 million so far.
Here’s an extra little something
As with all things marketing, it’s good to add value. Help your customers by sharing a free Valentine’s Day Checklist. Just like ours. Email info@virtualassistantwhiz.co.uk for yours.
So however you plan to treat your customers, your besties, the special one in your life, or even the cat(!), have a wonderful Valentine’s Day everyone.
