Next Steps

🎯 Next Steps for Your Multi-Channel Holiday Message Strategy

1. Choose Your Emotional Thread

Decide the single core emotion that should unify all versions of your message. Examples:

  • Gratitude → “Thank you for being part of our journey.”
  • Celebration → “Look how far we’ve come—together.”
  • Renewal → “We’re just getting started.”
  • Support → “We’re here with you—then, now, and next year.”

🧠 Tip: Pick the emotion that best matches your audience’s current state and your brand’s tone.

2. Prioritize Channels by Emotional Engagement

Identify which platforms your audience is most emotionally present on right now:

  • Video → Deep connection (use for most loyal community)
  • Email → Rich storytelling + visuals (use for broader audience)
  • SMS → High immediacy + personalization (use for VIPs or warm leads)
  • Social Media → Light touch, wide reach, visual memory (use for visibility)

✅ Select 1-2 primary channels and 1-2 supporting channels for coordinated delivery.

3. Tailor for Loyalty Tiers

Segment your audience:

  • Inner Circle / Enthusiasts → Use language that rewards their emotional investment (e.g., “You’ve been with us since
” or “Because of your belief in us
”)
  • General Audience → Speak warmly, inclusively, and with gratitude
  • Lapsed or Observers → Invite them to rejoin in the new year with a gentle gesture

đŸ§© Consider adding a small gift, download, or exclusive content for top-tier contacts.

4. Write, Then Adapt—Not Copy-Paste

Use the same emotional essence, but different expressions on each channel:

  • Email: “We’re pausing to thank you
”
  • Video: “From our hearts to yours
”
  • Social: “What a year it’s been. Thank you for being part of it.”
  • SMS: “Happy Holidays from all of us—grateful for you!”

đŸȘž Ask: “Does this version sound natural for this platform and to this audience?”

5. Decide on an Optional CTA

Choose a light, relationship-focused next step, or none at all:

  • 🎁 Download a year-end gift or reflection resource
  • đŸ“œ Watch our 30-sec holiday video
  • 🧭 Get early access to what’s coming in January
  • 💌 Simply “Reply to share your own highlight this year”

⚠ Avoid overly promotional CTAs—this is not a sales message unless the offer is emotionally generous.
