As the holiday season approaches, small businesses have an incredible opportunity to refresh their branding and attract attention through festive, seasonal designs. Whether you're gearing up for Black Friday, a winter sale, or New Year's promotions, here are some seasonal branding tips to help you stand out.
- Update Your Logo with a Seasonal Twist
Your logo is the face of your brand, but during special times of the year, it can be fun to give it a holiday makeover. Adding subtle, festive touches—like snowflakes, holly, or a color change—can make your brand feel timely and festive. This approach keeps your brand recognizable while showing customers you're engaged with the season. Adding a seasonal twist to a high-resolution logo would be less than $100.

- Create Festive Social Media Graphics
Seasonal social media graphics are essential to catching attention online. Use your brand's colors mixed with holiday tones like red, green, or gold. Incorporating elements like gift boxes, wreaths, or winter landscapes helps bring the season into your online presence. Be sure to maintain brand consistency while still embracing the festive spirit.
