Seasonal marketing campaigns. How to build your team’s skills…

Feb 18, 2022 | FMCG digital marketing

Many brands miss seasonal opportunities for marketing because they don’t have the right structures in place, or their teams lack the right knowledge and attitude. Here’s how to fix that.

Top tips for unlocking the right attitudes for your seasonal marketing

  • Decide your campaign areas: look for seasonal events that are both relevant for your brand and will boost your growth
  • Brief all agencies: consider having an open brief to both your existing agencies and crowdsourcing platforms for creative communities
  • Challenge your colleagues: extend the brief for ideas to your teams – going beyond marketing to all those working on the brand
  • Get inspiration: review the approach of brands in your sector and adjacent sectors
  • Roleplay ideas: when you have a shortlist of ideas, roleplay how your audiences will get involved so you can identify those with maximum talkability
  • Show recognition: when you find something you like, share the praise – ensure all the people you briefed see who developed the winning idea
