"I'm not good at taking pictures, and I don't know how to make posters. How can I post on Instagram?"

Reinforce conversion with in-store posters

After attracting customers to the store through the above methods, in-store promotional materials such as posters, TV display images, and images on self-service ordering machines can remind customers of holiday events or new products, achieving higher conversion rates.

Gift-giving requires gift cards

There is a tradition of giving gifts during the holidays, and gift cards are very popular. Starbucks and Amazon also offer holiday-themed gift cards, and there are even Christmas gift card gift boxes, creating a festive atmosphere.

During the holidays, restaurants can introduce their own gift cards, encouraging customers to give them to their friends and family. Restaurants can also lock in turnover in advance through gift cards.
