Small Business Inspiration: 4 Ideas for Holiday Blog Posts

If you run a small business, you know how difficult it can be to think of new, fresh ideas for your website’s blog. If your content is getting stale consider using the holiday season as your inspiration. Writing content about this topic can help spur new creativity into your everyday posts. It can also keep you posting consistently even during a busier sales season.

Here are 4 holiday post ideas to inspire you:
1. Gift Guides
During the holiday season, everyone is on the hunt for new gift ideas. Whether you run a clothing boutique, a chimney sweep company or a small restaurant, you more than likely sell at least one thing that would make a good gift. A gift guide article can be a great way to showcase your products while offering useful information your readers will want to explore.

2. A Pledge for the Coming Year
What’s to come in the next year for your small business? Share with your readers what your future plans are and how you will best serve them in the coming year. Reconfirming your commitment to offering excellence can help build trust with your customers while giving them insight into where you are heading.

3. Highlights from the Past Year
Reflecting on the past year can be a great way to bring to light all the wonderful things your small business has accomplished. These types of articles could be based on new products or services you began to offer, charitable works you participated in or any rewards and recognitions received.

4. A Thank You Note
There is no time better than the holidays to extend a sincere note of thanks to those customers that have supported you over the last year. Including a post extending your gratitude for their loyalty is always a welcomed addition to any small business blog.

    Grand Marketing Solutions has been very effective for us. They are the right size firm with the right mix of talents. They spruced up our logo, redesigned our web site, printed new literature, and worked smoothly with our people.
    - Bill
    Before starting Business Image Magazine, I met with dozens of graphic designers/printers and worked with a couple before I met Karl Hofmeier of Grand Marketing Solutions. I heard Karl speak at a networking event and was impressed with his expertise. Since then, Grand Marketing Solutions has become my one stop shop for marketing advice, graphic design, printing, website design and maintenance. The service is second to none and I am happy to refer all my clients and prospects to him.

    We are proud to be partners with GMS. As an entrepreneur and small business owner, I value a relationship with a partner who is cut from the same mold. Grand Marketing Solutions understands what it takes to keep our company competitive in a ever changing market. They ask the right questions and treat our business as it was their own. With Grand Marketing Solutions as our partner we can focus on our core business while they execute on our marketing strategy. We've been with a handful of marketing firms over the years. Some were large, some were small, but none of them have had the impact that Grand Marketing Solutions has.
