What is your favourite holiday retail promotion? Many may say Christmas, or Valentine’s, but what about Chinese New Year? To celebrate this special holiday, Tigris provided one female promotional model for a CNY Swatch promotion. Because of the market, our promotional model was bilingual in English and Cantonese.
The event was held at the Swatch store in Metropolis @ Metrotown, Jan. 27-28. The New Year is a time for Asian families to celebrate with loved ones. To celebrate this holiday, Swatch designed a special edition Chinese New Year Watch for consumers.
CNY Holiday Retail Promotion, Gong Hey Fat Choy!
Onsite, our bilingual promotional model was to stand at the front entrance. As a result, customers were eager to browse inside the store. She encourages shoppers to view the CNY watch. In addition to welcoming customers, our promotional model was to assist with refreshments. Lastly, a Swatch red pocket was given to each customer for a ‘Gong Hey Fat Choy!’
Leveraging special holidays to increase store traffic is a popular idea. Not only are people out shopping, but they are looking for something specific in mind. Most of all, by offering a promotion, special offer or product, you can increase sales around popular events.
