Create A Festive Photo Opportunity

People love taking photos all the time – and especially so during the holidays! Hence a festive photo opportunity would be perfect to get some user-generated content for your brand:

• Instagram AR filter – Develop a fun branded filter that will help your customers look good on their InstaStories that they will share with their friends and community.
• Instagram-able Backdrop – Create an Instagram-worthy festive backdrop at your brick-and-mortar shop and it could help get people coming in just for the ‘gram while helping to spread the word about your brand.
• Festive Collection – Come up with a festive collection that looks great in pictures – it will make people want to share about it on Instagram. Think about the Starbucks Pumpkin spice latte.
• Make sure you ask them to tag your brand or use your festive hashtag so you can share and re-gram their photos!

Have A 12- Day Christmas Countdown

Who doesn’t love a good fun countdown? This can be a great way to get your followers coming back for more content every day – since they have something to look forward to! Some possible ideas to consider include:

• Fashion brands – highlight a different outfit each day for holiday festivities (from cozying up at home by the fireplace to attending a Christmas ball).
• Fitness brands – can spotlight simple daily exercises to help combat winter weight gain 
• Food brands – can share festive recipes that are easy to replicate at home
