Your customer comes to you with an item in mind, but if you’re good at marketing then they will leave with more than just what they came for. They just didn’t know they wanted those other products until you told them.
According to a 2019 survey, out of 3,100 adults, 86 percent said they hoped to get their shopping done over Labor Day weekend. For Labor Day weekend, some marketing strategies to think about is planning around family events such as traveling, going out, ordering food, BBQing, attending/hosting parties, or gathering with family, friends, and co-workers.
