The Best Promotional Products To Increase Your Retail Sales Through The Holiday

If you are in retail then you are probably sweating out the holiday season

. The word on the block is that this is going to be a tough year in the retail market and as a small business owner you may really be concerned about the major retailers taking their holiday promotions up a notch this year.

It is a fight to get people's money first, and that is obvious with how quickly businesses are running holiday sales, but there are some things that you can do to help promote your business through the holidays and catch those dollars first.

Spending first thing in the morning is common for people who have more money. You can try offering early birds a discount. This way people will come in and spend more earlier in the day and more freely. Many of these buyers are not fully awake either so it may encourage them to buy more as they aren't paying attention completely to what they are doing.

Another way to dance the money away from them is to create promotional products as giveaway items to those who spend over a certain dollar amount. If you are unsure about using this as a stimulus than all you need to do is watch when you go into another store that uses this form of spending motivation. When a customer arrives at the counter with $80 worth of merchandise and you tell them that if they spend $100 they get a free something, they will immediately turn around and start picking up things they don't need or will return to pick up that item that they were going to leave behind today. This form of incentive will really help drive up your holiday sales.

Having holiday shopping bags will also give your customers a little more cheer and also they will appreciate not having to stop again or take time to wrap some of their gifts. Also other people will see their bags and want to come to your store: it's like a walking advertisement.
