Spring has sprung, and with it comes one of the most underrated but opportunity-rich holidays for marketers: Easter. Itâs a time of renewal, family gatherings, andâletâs be honestâchocolate overload. While it may not have the flash of Black Friday or the heart-tugging sentiment of the winter holidays, Easter still packs a serious punch for brands looking to connect, convert, and celebrate.
Whether you're selling seasonal products, offering services, or just want to inject a little springtime cheer into your campaigns, here are some Easter marketing tips to help you hop ahead of the competition.
Easter is all about pastels, blooms, and sunshine. Update your branding and creative assetsâthink emails, ads, social postsâwith bright, cheerful visuals that evoke the season. People are craving lightness after winter, so meet them with visuals that feel fresh, airy, and optimistic.
đď¸ Pro tip: Use seasonal imagery like Easter eggs, bunnies, florals, and sunshineâbut donât go overboard. Keep it on-brand.
Sales and promotions are a no-brainer, but the key is in how you theme them. Give your standard offers a holiday twist:
âEaster Basket Bundlesâ
âEgg-stra Savings Weekendâ
âSpring Into Styleâ discount codes
Make your messaging fun and festiveâit boosts engagement and feels timely without being salesy.
đ Idea: Create a digital Easter egg hunt on your website. Hide âeggsâ (promo codes or deals) across pages to encourage browsing.
People are checking their inboxes (and phones) for holiday plans, sales, and ideas. Send Easter-themed campaigns that:
Highlight your promotions
Offer gift guides or inspiration
Send last-minute reminders or âyou forgot somethingâ nudges
đ Try a subject line like: âHippity Hoppity, Easter Deals Are Here!â or âCrack Open These Sweet Savings.â
Easter is extremely visual, making it perfect for Instagram, Pinterest, and TikTok. Create engaging content like:
DIY Easter decor or basket ideas
Behind-the-scenes peeks at your seasonal prep
Polls (âPeeps or chocolate bunnies?â)
Easter-themed giveaways
Once shoppers have browsed your site, donât let them hop away. Use retargeting ads to:
Remind them of products they viewed
Offer an extra incentive to complete their purchase
Countdown to shipping cutoffs
đĽ Tip: Segment your audience based on behaviorâabandoned carts, product views, or past seasonal purchasesâfor smarter messaging.
Easter isnât just about candy and egg hunts. Think broader:
Promote products tied to spring cleaning, home refreshes, or seasonal self-care
Tap into family-focused messagingâmeals, gatherings, and memory-making
Share uplifting stories or community initiatives to tie into Easterâs theme of renewal
Easter may be a shorter holiday window, but the opportunities are wide open for creative, joyful, and strategic marketing. Whether youâre launching a limited-time offer or just giving your brand a seasonal glow-up, these tips will help you hop into holiday mode with purpose and style.
