Social Media Marketing Tips for Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is the perfect time to express love to an important person in your life; a time to show that you care. Mothers may look very different from family to family, but it’s almost assured that she has a piece of her family’s heart. Here are some social media marketing tips so that you can speak to clients, moms, and moms-at-heart.

  • Share graphics encouraging your e-community to treat their mother with a massage gift card. If you’re feeling creative, check out www.canva.com to make your own graphics. You can also visit www.facebook.com/ABMPpage or www.instagram.com/ABMPmassage and share the images you find there.
  • Post relevant content about how beneficial massage is for mothers. ABMP has an entire issue of Massage & Bodywork magazine dedicated to moms-to-be. Check it out at http://abmp.us/1Y9aklK.
  • Have a social media contest! Make it fun and engaging: ask for a favorite story between a person and their mom, choose your favorite, and offer the winner a discount on a service. Or post a secret phrase that only followers have access to, and then have a raffle with the winner receiving a goody bag. This is a great way to encourage your followers to stay up to date on all of your social media channels as well as your website.
