Emotional Connection is essential to showcase for a celebration like Mother’s Day. Use your social media to tell meaningful stories. Share posts highlighting different kinds of mother figures—grandmothers, mentors, and other maternal influences—to celebrate motherhood. If you’re a florist, share what Mother’s Day means to you personally to add a personal touch.

Encourage followers to share why they’re celebrating Mother’s Day and tag your shop for a chance to be featured, thus, creating a community around your shop and flowers. 

Engage Your Audience

Mother’s Day is a sentimental holiday, so take the time to interact with your followers by asking them about their favorite flowers or best gift ideas through polls and questions. Hosting a "Win a Mother’s Day Bouquet" contest can significantly boost engagement and reach, while responding promptly to inquiries and comments helps foster real-time connections with your audience.

Highlight Special Offers

Encouraging customers to order early while also keeping an eye on last-minute buyers can significantly impact sales. Offering a limited-time discount for pre-orders creates urgency, while using countdown stickers in stories helps highlight order deadlines. Additionally, reminding customers of last-minute gifting options like same-day delivery can capture last-minute shoppers who are still looking for the perfect bouquet.

Collaborate With Local Businesses

Expanding your reach by partnering with influencers or local businesses that align with your brand is a great way to increase visibility. Partnering with lifestyle or family influencers can help showcase your arrangements, while teaming up with local bakeries, gift shops, or spas for bundle giveaways can add value to your offerings. Additionally, donating a portion of your sales to a cause supporting mothers and sharing the impact online can resonate with customers who appreciate businesses that give back.
