McConnell’s knows that Valentine's Day isn't just about exchanging gifts. It's also about making sweet memories with our loved ones. To help create these special moments for their customers, the ice cream company used geo-targeting to invite local subscribers to swing by a nearby scoop shop. There, they could enjoy a Valentine's Day cupcake (complete with house-made pink whipped cream) for a limited time.

MATE the Label came up with a clever plan to reduce their inventory before moving warehouses in the new year: asking customers to help lighten the load by doing some shopping. The brand announced they were having a major sale at the end of December and kept their promotions going into January, nudging non-purchasers with reminders along the way.

ILIA Canada launched a three-day Boxing Day Event to wrap up the holiday season and celebrate the new year on the horizon. On December 26, the clean beauty brand gave customers 20% off everything on the site, so they could stock up and refresh their makeup bags. But they only had until the 28th to shop, which created a sense of urgency for people to click through and purchase.

Modern home decor brand CB2 used text messaging to let their subscribers know about new spring furniture. They took their message strategy a step further by creating several category-focused new arrival messages and targeted subscribers based on their browse history (e.g. browsed furniture, lighting, etc). Using data to segment text messaging sends is an effective way to send highly relevant content to your subscribers. CB2 also included an eye-catching GIF that previewed an item from the new collection.
