Celebrating Grandparents With Generational Heartfelt Keepsakes
Celebrating grandparents may not grab headlines, but that’s exactly what makes it a hidden opportunity for your boutique. Run with the theme and add it to your monthly specials! You have the chance to highlight the special bond between grandparents and their grandchildren and offer families keepsakes that stretch generational connections.
Shine a Light on Grandparents
By promoting grandparents, you remind families that it is important to make loved ones feel special. You can position your boutique as the place to honor grandparents with something tangible, personal, and memorable. Even a small, curated promotion highlighting them can encourage bookings and visits!
Thoughtful Gift Packages
Bundling your offerings into ready-made packages makes it easy for families to say yes. A “Gift for Grandma” could include a Heartbeat Animal with the baby’s recorded heartbeat and a framed ultrasound photo. For added impact, offer a “Generational Bundle” with two Heartbeat Animals, one for grandparents to cherish, and one for the nursery. This approach not only creates a touching keepsake but also naturally doubles your unit sales per visit.
Make It an Experience
Products alone can be meaningful, but experiences create memories. Hosting a small boutique event can be a powerful way to engage families. It can be a simple gathering with cookies, coffee, and a styled photo area allows three generations to pose together. Include recording stations for grandparents to leave a personal message for the baby, a recording that can be tucked inside a Heartbeat Animal and treasured for years to come. Offering photo packages or printed keepsakes for purchase adds both value for the family and additional revenue for your boutique.
Marketing
Social media posts, short videos, or customer photos showcasing grandparents will tug on heartstrings. Limited-time incentives like early-bird booking discounts, free accessories, or small bundled upgrades encourage families to plan ahead and commit.
Remember, grandparents are often the ones willing to add a few extras before checking out, so keep those keepsakes within reach!
