Leap Year Marketing - Inspiration From Online Retailers
There truly is much opportunity to get creative with special event promotions. Today happens to be February 29, the only day that comes around only once in 4 years. It ain't no Valentine's Day, but many creative e-tailers are taking advantage of leap year with $29 deals, 29% off sales and other offers - some using jumping or frogs in imagery. (My favorite is the Container Store's "Leap year happens every 4 years. Filing your taxes doesn't. Get organized today!")
