For small businesses and marketers, May is chock full of opportunities to share products and services with clients and encourage new sales. If you’re looking to make the most of your small business marketing efforts during the month of May, check out some of these ideas to get started and grow.

 

Mother’s Day

This year, Mother’s Day falls on May 12th, and is a great opportunity for businesses to reach out to families and market their products or services as the ultimate Mother’s Day experience. 

Flowers, food and gifts are all items commonly associated with Mother’s Day. If you’re a small business owner, tap into Mother’s Day by marketing the organization as family-friendly and eager to help out in any way to celebrate.

 

Memorial Day

Memorial Day is May 27th this year, and though it may be towards the end of the month, now is a great time to get started on promoting sales and giveaways. 

With most offices being closed that day, the 3-day weekend is the perfect opportunity to market items to people who are usually at work. Start advertising your Memorial Day sales and promotions early to see how many customers and clients can be brought in.

Graduations
