Create a Mother’s Day branded email for your mailing list with some nice content. If you sell directly— beauty or spa services/products, gifts etc, you can send out some an email/SMS reminding your customers that you can provide a solution for their Mother’s Day gifts.  For Instance: a discount if they book their next service by a certain date, buy something and get a special gift sent to their mother etc. You can also offer a special combination of products or services just for moms.  Whether you add an offer to the email or just create a friendly reminder, email marketing around special days is an opportunity not to be missed.

Run a ‘bring your mum’ promotion in your store

Sometimes the best gift we can gift our mothers is to spend a little quality time with them.  You can encourage your customers to bring their mum with them to shop or enjoy services, by running a ‘bring your mom’ promotion. You can offer a discount for both. For example, a beauty salon can run a promotion along with the lines of “bring your mom in for a little pampering and you’ll both enjoy 30% off!” It’s not only a great way to give existing clients a reason to come in but will also help winning future business from their mothers.

Offer a Mother’s Day Gift with Purchase

Mother’s Day marketing idea is one of the most popular.  By offering a free bonus with purchase, you will be able to build more buzz.  If you’re offering a service, consider creating a tangible gift to give to their mothers. Whatever you offer, make sure that it’s something that moms want (or people want to give to their moms).  For example, if you’re a fitness trainer, you can offer a free gift basket with a 3-month subscription package. If you run a beauty salon, gifting a pretty basket filled with tailored beauty goodies hits the spot. Other free gifts with purchase include free flowers, free desserts, free drinks, free appetizers, and more.
