Summer 2021 (July-September)

Capture your customers’ attention throughout the entire summer with easy-to-implement text message ideas—including 24-hour flash sales, behind-the-scenes looks, product recommendations, and more—for big and small holidays. Here’s a sneak peek of what to expect:

Summer tip #1:

This summer, people are spending more time traveling and meeting loved ones again. Consider recommending items that will help them as they explore and socialize, including warm-weather apparel, luggage, and outdoor equipment and furniture.  

Summer tip #2:

Many students, families, and teachers are looking forward to a traditional back-to-school season for the first time in nearly two years. Help your SMS subscribers start the school year confidently by sharing school supply shopping lists and other items that will help them prepare for a successful year ahead. Consider sharing product recommendations and reviews to help guide shoppers as they check items off their lists.
