You did it! You had amazing sales for Mother's Day and 5.5, so now what? How can you keep the momentum going? Well, this article should help you out with a few tips that will not only help your business after the amazing spending this past week, but all year round as well.
While it's fun to bask in the glory of your new sales, you should spend additional effort to follow through on your successes. We've got a few good ideas how to do just that.
First, Take Care of the Basics
Next, Focus On Your New Customers
You heard that right: giant sales and shopping events are great opportunities to reach new customers. And because it's Mother's Day, you'll bet some mothers have received something from your shop! It's time to make sure they love your product and recommend you to their kumare. Put out a few posts on how to use your winning product and you'll get their attention for sure!
Third, Keep Marketing Moving
To make a good profit, businesses should keep marketing even though the sale holiday is over. That means planning new deals, new ads, and making plans for the next big sale. Start looking into how to boost your sales for the future so that you're not caught off-guard when the sales start up again in a month.

Fourth, Refresh Your Products
Not everyone wants a bargain or discount on things that have been left behind as the "rush" of sales comes to an end. Some people prefer seeing new things that they can get excited about. Remember that there are new holidays on the horizon, like Father's Day and Independence Day, that you can plan your inventory and marketing around.
Fifth, Upsell
To make the most of the fact that you have more new customers after 5.5, don't just wait for things to get back to normal. Get them to come back to you by giving loyal customers a little something: it can be a little freebie, a discount, or a promotion that's related to what they bought from you. They'll feel like a VIP and love you for it!
Sixth, Get to Know Your New Customers
You've got new customers, great! But don't expect that they're just like your older customers. At a massive sale like 5.5, you just might have been discovered by a new kind of market. If you're not paying attention to who your new customers are, you might lose out on good ideas on how to expand your business even more. Connect to your new customers and get to know them!
Lastly, Stay Available
After this week, Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, and Instagram will be full of people showing off their gifts and their 5.5 haul. People love to talk about their budol finds, so you should stay attentive on social media if anyone mentions or tags your business.
If they see you're around and hyper-responsive even with the success of your sales, they know they're in good hands even if they're still waiting for their order or hoping to score a deal. Make sure you've got a chatbot like Chatbuddy available to handle all your inquiries so you're not worrying about missed sales.
Good luck and keep moving!
