We're getting closer, friends - so here's our critical third step: creating our holiday content before the official craze comes in. Because the last thing you're going to want to do is sit down and think about social media when you have a holiday sales floor to run. But before you let the moans and procrastination roll in, I want to help shift your mindset so you can see what a true money-making opportunity this is.

And definitely check out our Holiday Roadmap because I've got loads of ready-to-go prompts that you can literally copy and paste. ✌️

In our previous episode, we talked a lot about staying true to your branding and your values and whatever it is that your community of customers love you. So now we're taking that one step further by turning the ways you stand out into literal pieces of content. Planning your promotions now rather than later allows you to be incredibly creative, less stressed, and ready to be present for the craze that is about to ensue.

In this episode, we cover:

• Planned Promotions vs. Lever Pullers
• making your way and standing out through the noise
• how content creation is a way to tap into your creativity
• that it's not the algorithm, it's the competition you gotta focus on

We're getting real about that Holiday vibe check. Get ready to tune into some serious, expert hot takes as we enter our second action item on our Holiday Roadmap. Because it's time to find our middle ground between full on Holiday decorations and the integrity of our brand. The last thing you want to do to stand out in a world of red and green is wear the colors of red and green.

We'll focus on what makes you you and why your community of customers loves you in the first place. Reminding them of your connection rather than applying the pressure to make a Holiday purchase will carry you so much farther in the noise of Holiday marketing.

In this episode, we cover:

• having cohesion and standing tall amongst the holiday craze
• revisiting your brand mission and values
• how to feel like a breath of fresh air to your customers
• creating a holiday persona

Now is prime time to start preparing and gearing up for the holiday season - and if you're listening to this in the year beyond 2021, that means October. With the Feel Good Holiday Roadmap, I've created a bulletproof action outline that will relieve retailers from at least some of the pressures of this demanding season and help you make that money with a greater sense of ease.

And I welcome you to our first action item on our Holiday Roadmap, which is to have a date with your data - yes, make it fun! Because even though analytics is not the sexiest thing in the world, it can be an incredibly powerful tool if you know how to use it. But if you don't know what you're looking for, it can turn into a complete waste of time - maybe even lead you down the wrong path.

But don't worry, I'm here with all the goodies on exactly what you should be looking for in your data. Let's dive in, get cozy, and together we'll find those retail magic numbers so you don't have to work backwards and play a guessing game when there is such a great opportunity to be making that money, honey!

In this episode, we cover:

• you don't have start from cold or square one or a blank page
• how to read your data & what to look at
• finding your retail magic numbers
• which is better - percentages or sales
