We’ve compiled a wide array of holidays so that you can reach every type of customer possible. Hopefully, one holiday speaks out to you and your target audience.
Are you a believer? Have you had a spooky experience? National Paranormal Day is a day to celebrate all things scary and unknown.
There’s something about the idea of things going bump in the night that fascinates and scares us at the same time. There are so many books, movies, documentaries, and true stories to provide hours of entertainment.
Examples of the paranormal:
People who enjoy the paranormal don’t restrict themselves to just a day. Usually, people incorporate their love of the paranormal into their everyday life.
An easy way to do this is through home decor. Try creating spooky designs on our pillows! They’re perfect for decorating any room and can be subtle enough if your customers don’t want to be obvious with their love of the paranormal.

Use social media for this holiday. Make a callout for all paranormal lovers. Ask your followers if they’ve ever seen a ghost or had a spooky experience. This gets a conversation started and more eyes on your pages.
Make sure you have a lot of photos of your product so your customers can see it. Also, if any customers have questions about your product, answer them quickly.

If anyone deserves to be celebrated it’s nurses! They have been working themselves to exhaustion to keep us healthy during the pandemic.
Use National Nurses Day to show a nurse in your life that you care. This holiday starts National Nursing Week, which ends on May 12th. Why does it end on the 12th? It’s Florence Nightingale’s birthday, she essentially created modern nursing.
Nurses are always on the go, it’s important for them to stay hydrated. You can use our traveler tumbler to help them stay hydrated! They can grab and carry the tumbler with them while doing their rounds without worrying about spills.

Using both social media and email campaigns, you’ll reach as many people as possible. Some people within your customer base must know or be nurses. Appeal to them specifically in both your posts and emails.
