Luckily, there are hundreds of images in the Haute Stock Library that members can use to create polished and professional looking graphics in minutes! It doesn’t have to take forever and a day to find beautiful holiday imagery, or to create graphics that are both on-brand and attention-grabbing.

Here are some of our tips for the types of graphics you can create this season to help you get your sales and promotions noticed by the right people! All examples were made using Haute Stock’s Pink & Red Holiday Collection.

 

1/ Newsletter Graphics

One of the best ways to increase sales is to send promotional offers to your mailing list. Having an attention-grabbing image in the body of your newsletter is a great way to increase your click-through rate. Don’t go overboard with the imagery, which could affect the deliverability of your email — one or two strategically placed images are all you need to make an impact!

Be sure that your eye-catching newsletter graphics link to your sales page or product listings and get straight down to business! This not only brings traffic directly to your promotion but it also cuts down on searching because really who has time for that when a great deal is on the table?!

 

2/ Instagram Stories Graphics

Instagram stories are a great way to reach your audience while they’re scrolling through their favorite Instagram feeds. The fast nature of these posts means that it is important to make a bold statement with these graphics in order to get people to want to know more and take action!

Make sure that you include a call to action or a hashtag that tells your audience how they can find out more information about your promotion.

 

3/ update your website & shop headers

Your website headers and shop headers should remain just as relevant as your other social media posts. This is commonly the first thing viewers will see when they arrive at your page, which makes it the best place to advertise new arrivals, new courses, or any current promotions that you have going on.

4/ social media posts

Consistency is key! You want to be rolling out a set of promotional graphics that are cohesive as a whole (choose images with a similar theme) and you’ll also want share these graphics on different social media platforms that you use.

If you don’t have any specific holiday sales planned for your business but are as excited as a kid on Christmas day with these new holiday images (trust us, we are too!) then you can also create seasonal graphics for holiday blog posts, quotes, e-courses, recipes, tutorials, etc.
