Each month there are so many great candy-themed holidays to
celebrate. One very fun day is coming up next week, April 22 – National Jelly
Bean Day! This week’s tip is to have fun and celebrate!
Four fun ways to celebrate National
Jelly Bean Day:
·
Post jelly bean trivia on Facebook and Twitter.
Even better, make it a contest and whoever walks into your store with the
answer gets free jelly beans (set a standard weight that is free).
·
Post colorful pictures of jelly beans on Pinterest
and Instagram, reminding your followers they can buy them at your store
(remember to make the pictures high quality!) (will link to last week’s post about pics)
·
Deliver ‘thank you’ packages of jelly beans to
local heroes – fire, police and ambulance departments. Be sure they know it’s
from you and that they are appreciated!
·
Recently RCI member Jelly Belly Candy Company
revealed a candy calculator on their website. It helps you figure out how much
candy you need for favors, parties or candy buffets. Check it
out here. And then share with your wedding and party planning customers and
remind them to come to you to fill their candy buffet!
