Why Host a Mother's Day Giveaway?

Mother's Day promotions have become increasingly popular. It's in no way the biggest event of the year (for most retailers). Yet, stores and brands are ready to accommodate customers looking for great gifts for their moms. These stores need to promote these gifts so customers will have an idea of where to find great gifts. However, the promotion window for Mother's Day is small. You don't want to start too early. This will make your brand look desperate as if you are trying to rake in every dollar you can. So how do you run a successful viral campaign just before Mother's Day?

Who Do You Target with Your Mother's Day Giveaway?

This is an important question. Do you target the moms? Or do you target the kids (or even the dads)? If you have an online store, then targeting the person who is going to buy the gift might be the right answer. Generally, the kid (younger person) would be more inclined to make online purchases. They would also be the one buying the gift.

Now, if your brand caters mostly for moms, then your giveaway should appeal to moms. In this case, you should not target the person buying the mother's day gift. If your store only caters to older age groups, then keep your giveaway exclusive to that age group. Use a store voucher or one of your products as the prize.

❓️ What is the average duration of a giveaway? Giveaways, on average, are hosted over two weeks (14 days). You can run them over a longer or shorter time frame.
