It's time to have fun in the sun. Keep your customers coming back for more as they embark on summer adventures with the new marketing materials. We know how busy the summer can be so we focused on a few topics that could help you and your customers enjoy the long days and long rides. Find these and other assets in the Page Library located in the Page Editor of your SmartEtailing Site Manager.

These marketing materials are designed to drive sales online and in-store. Don't see marketing materials for the product categories you want to promote? Reach out our support team, or your marketing account representative, and they would love to help you get what you need to increase sales online and in store.

Independence Day

July 4th is the biggest holiday of the summer. Promote summer products like cycling apparel, hydration, and bikes. Independence Day is also a big traveling holiday, so promoting rental services with your sale will capture some of that traffic in your area.

Road Bikes

Take advantage of the warm sunny weather, and the coverage of the Tour, to promote road bikes. Road bikes are the most recognizable style of bike and are often the entry point to other styles of riding. Don't forget to offer the apparel and gear to go along with these new bike purchases.

Car Racks

Help your customers take their bikes with them on their summer adventures. Make bicycle car racks a key piece of summer gear this year with these marketing assets. Offer service specials with rack sales to get your customers ready for the road.

Durable Content

Every month we also work to create new durable and basic pages in the library. These help your SmartEtailing sites maintain best practices in web design and give you a springboard to create your own custom pages. These pages are also built fully optimized for SEO to help you rank better in searches. This month's pages include Bike Repair & Services, Bike Rentals, and Bike Fit.
