Mother's Day
As Mother's Day approaches, brands are looking for original contest ideas to animate their social media, e-commerce sites and stores. Gamification mechanics like personality tests, quizzes and wheels of fortune are particularly effective for this period, helping to recommend gift ideas while collecting qualified leads.
Whether you are running a Mother's Day Instagram contest, an in-store activation or an online lead generation campaign, gamification is a powerful lever for capturing the attention of gift-buyers at the moment they are searching for the perfect present.
Why leverage Mother's Day ?
Mother's Day is the third biggest commercial event of the year after Christmas and Valentine's Day. It is a unique opportunity to create a strong emotional connection with your audience.
Consumers are searching for the perfect gift and are open to inspiration. A well-designed marketing game allows you to guide them towards your products while giving them the chance to win an extra gift for their mum.
Marketing insight
Mother's Day touches almost everyone: children, partners, grandchildren. The average gift budget is significant and purchases are typically made in the two weeks before the event. A well-timed contest lets you capture this searching audience and direct them towards your products with a personality test like 'What gift suits your mum?'.
