Pink Friday is just one month away!
For those of you who don’t already know, Pink Friday is an annual event held every November before Black Friday with one mission: to promote shopping small first. It’s a chance for you to get consumers in the door before all of the big guys and Black Friday deals. So, today I’m talking all things Pink Friday – why we celebrate, ideas for how to do so and the tools at your disposal.
Trust me, I know how crazy fourth quarter can get, and I want to make it as easy as possible for you to get involved — which is why The Hub has all the tools you need to make the most of Pink Friday. If you sign up online using the link in the show notes, you can be listed our #ShopSmallFirst map, be invited to our public Facebook event to get tips from and collaborate with other store owners, plus we will send you our Pink Friday media kit full of digital marketing materials and a press release template.
We want to help your business have the best fourth quarter yet and continue to grow the #SupportSmallFirst Movement. So, mark your calendars for November 17 and visit the link below to join us in celebrating the Fourth Annual Pink Friday!
