As an LHS member moving into 2024, let’s keep the energy and success going strong with quirky holiday ideas that can earn you more sales.

In the midst of the holiday season, you’ve likely been experiencing a bustling time for your business. However, once the holidays pass, business activity tends to slow down.

While post-New Year’s tends to be a quieter period, you still have sales opportunities. Customers may use gift cards or spend cash they received as gifts. Plus, you might also have returns and exchanges to manage. But there are other ways to keep your momentum going.

During this time, I like to share a unique and fun list of weird holidays around the world, which I’ve done for the past few years. This list is a valuable resource that can help boost your sales even after the holiday rush. Whether it’s January or any other month, you can use this list in several ways.

You can use it to spark new design ideas or create promotions for unusual or lesser-known holidays. For instance, January 24, 2024 is National Puzzle Day. You could run a special promotion centered around this holiday and come up with design ideas related to puzzles.

To illustrate, I found a couple of creative results from an Etsy search for “puzzle mug:”
