Let’s Keep ‘Em Coming Back!
Holiday promotions are great — but let’s be real: they’re often one-and-done. Customers enter, maybe they buy something, but then they’re gone, off to the next holiday deal. What if you could bring them back every day? Enter: BeeLiked’s 12 Days of Christmas Advent Calendar—our holiday gift to eCommerce pros looking to keep customers engaged beyond a single visit.
01 – The Power of a 12-Day Holiday Promotion
How do you keep the excitement going beyond one purchase? By giving your customers something to come back for every day. BeeLiked’s Advent Calendar (yes, we call them “doors”!) lets you spread out the fun—and the rewards—over 12 days, creating multiple reasons for your audience to keep returning.
How It Works:
- Set Up a 12-Day Promotion – Each day, a new “door” reveals a prize, discount, or exclusive offer.
- First Come, First Serve – Unlike traditional games of chance, rewards go to the first customers to open each door until prizes run out. Or, use the Sweepstakes feature to select winners randomly from daily entries.
- Direct-to-Discount – Offer every entrant a unique discount code to use that day, linking them straight to your holiday product page for easy shopping.
- Build Loyalty – With every entry, your customers are reminded of your brand, making them more likely to return for post-holiday shopping.
Why Use BeeLiked’s Advent Calendar?
- Sustained Engagement – Drive daily visits for 12 days.
- Exclusive Offers – Reward loyal participants with unique, timely incentives.
- More Sales Opportunities – Each day can link back to your store’s best seasonal offers.
02 – Feature Design
Spreading holiday cheer has never looked better! This week, we’re showing off a Santa-themed Advent Calendar design, complete with animated snow and a charming Santa with his belly as the prize window.
What’s Special About This Design?
- Santa-Themed Fun – Your audience can open “doors” in Santa’s belly, giving a playful twist to a standard calendar.
- Interactive Backgrounds – Add falling snow or a festive backdrop to keep things visually exciting.
- Holiday Magic – A unique design keeps people looking forward to the next day’s reveal!
