Every business knows that in the weeks before Mother\u2019s Day<\/a> and Father\u2019s Day<\/a>, kids across the country race to local shops to grab a token of appreciation for their mom or dad. Family-motivated holidays are big business. In fact, Mother\u2019s Day rakes in around $21 billion and Father\u2019s Day nets around $12 billion in sales of cards, flowers, and gifts. But what about National Grandparent\u2019s Day<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This underappreciated holiday takes place every year on the Sunday after Labor Day. National Grandparent\u2019s Day has been set aside as a special day to honor those people who have always been your biggest cheerleaders and never forget to send you a birthday card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Few businesses take advantage of this opportunity. It’s a perfect time for your company to show some love to grandparents and stand out from your competitors. Here are some tips for promoting your business on Grandparent\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Grandparents Eat\/Enter for Half Off<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you run a restaurant or you charge admission, then you can lure in customers by halving the amount that grandparents pay, provided they come with a grandkid in tow. Hang a banner<\/a> in front of your restaurant to attract grandparents looking for a bit to eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. A Special Ticket<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Provide a bundle of services that can be redeemed with a custom-made ticket<\/a> or gift card. Grandkids can buy them for their grandparents to redeem when it\u2019s convenient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Don\u2019t Count on the Kids<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not every grandparent is going to be able to see their grandchildren on National Grandparents Day. So, dress up your shop or restaurant with eye-catching promotional materials<\/a> to welcome those looking for a little appreciation, even if their grandkids are far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Early Bird Specials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Everyone knows that grandparents like to wake up early. Cater your business to them on their special day! Restaurants can offer specials for early arrivals. Bars can move their happy hour specials to earlier in the day. Retail shops can offer special deals during the early morning hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
