Here are some examples of pranks launched last year by some brands on Social Media:

2. Share ideas for Easter

Easter is one of the most important holidays of the year, and for many it is an opportunity to connect with friends and family. This means that it is also an important time for marketers to create relevant and engaging content for their audience. One of the most important things for your customers is to feel special.

Use WhatsApp to send personalized Easter greetings to your customers.

If you are an e-commerce business in the food sector, share with your customers ideas for Easter cooking, such as recipes, tips for preparing traditional sweets, or suggestions for table decoration. In this way, you can create an emotional connection with your audience and offer them added value.

3. Promote Easter-themed products and give away a coupon

Use Easter colors and images on your website, social media, newsletters, and advertisements to create a unique Easter experience for your customers.

Promote Easter-themed products by sending images of your products or offer exclusive promotions to your customers by sending a coupon to use as early as 10 days before Easter.

4. Introduce the new S/S collection

Present the new spring/summer collection to your customers effectively and personally via WhatsApp. The message can include images of the main novelties, colors, and current trends. It is also possible to mention any promotions or special offers related to the new collection. This way, customers can get an idea of the new products and may be incentivized to make a purchase.

5. Suggest ideas for Easter Monday and April 25th

Many people use Easter Monday and April 25th for picnics and outings. Use your communication channels to share ideas for places to visit or activities to do, in order to offer your audience added value.

If your brand sells picnic-related products, such as picnic baskets or blankets, use these days to promote them. Send WhatsApp messages to your customers with special offers, share images on Instagram and Facebook of people picnicking with your products, and create a dedicated section on your website.

You can also create a picnic-themed contest, inviting your followers to share photos of their picnics. Offer an attractive prize such as a personalized picnic basket or an outdoor trip experience to encourage user interaction.
