But before that… let’s start with some general tips: ## Don’t overload your customers A single SMS promotion on Christmas Day should be enough. Because let`s face it: if people are interested in your product, **one message will do the trick.** But if they leave something in their shopping cart then why not give them a gentle nudge with an **additional abandoned cart SMS alert**? **Set up your SMS automations** to remind customers of their forgotten checkouts and get those orders completed. ## Blast out exclusive offers Give customers an exclusive **Christmas deal they can’t refuse**. Try going for a bigger discount on popular and bestselling items. You should also try targeting customers based on their product interests to **combine exclusiveness with personalization** and make the offer irresistible. ## Timing is everything If you’re aware of the **times when your customers are most engaged** with your store, stick to that. But remember that Christmas Day is unlike any other shopping day. Remember to **enable your Quiet Hours** if you want to avoid sending marketing messages at inappropriate times (during night times). ## 6 SMS templates you should try this Christmas Here are a few Christmas-themed templates you can try for your next campaign and get the snowball of cash rolling! 1. ### Build Up the Anticipation Send SMS notifications to your customers to rev up the hype for your Christmas sales. **Full SMS Template:** **{SiteName}**: Be the first to uncover our crazy Christmas deals with up to 50% off ALL products: **{DiscountCodeURL}**.
