We’re all using the same marketing theme this year: Shop Indie Local. When we work together to spread the word, we’ll multiply how many customers we reach.

Cyber Monday used to be the day lots of people went back to work and spent their time browsing for sales online. Well that’s pretty dated. We’ve been inundated with online deals all month long, so that’s not news.
But you can play on the media mentions of Cyber Monday by promoting Cider Monday, November 28, 2022. You serve cider and local deals, and have some fun.
If there’s local cider in your region, this is the day you’ve been waiting for. Partner up with a local cider maker for some in-store tasting, if you can.
The Local Crowd Monadnock has been using Cider Monday for years. Check their site for inspiration.
Next week: Giving Tuesday
Giving Tuesday puts the focus on causes that matter, and we’ll talk about how to do that in a meaningful way.
