Looking for outrageous marketing themes for July to keep your customers engaged and buying? You’ve come to the right place. Below are a list of food and drink National Days to give your marketing a sparkling flare!
I like July 31st – National Cotton Candy Day. It just so happens its during the local County Fair in my area! I have lots of happy childhood memories attached to Cotton Candy.
Rent a cotton candy machine for your business and invite your customers to come in with their families for free cotton candy. You can create an event on Facebook, tweet about it and set up a Foursquare promotion related to National Cotton Candy Day. And if you hurry you can even drop a cotton candy themed postcard in the mail to your customer list. Invite your guests to post photos of their cotton candy fun on your Facebook wall.
National Junk Food Day on July 21st sounds like lots of fun! Get your customers talking about their favorite Junk Food and have them post photos on your Facebook Wall.
Want a tropical theme for your marketing promotion? National Pina Colada Day on July 10th should work just fine. If you are a non-food service business you can have non alcoholic Pina Coladas available for customers to enjoy/
If you want to get fancy and deal with a luxury market send your best clients caviar on July 18th National Caviar Day.
