Not a 'romantic'? Valentine's Day offers a great opportunity to connect with your clients

Sunday 14th February 2021

1. A picture tells a thousand words

Design your own images using online tools and photos of your team, their pets and/or your patients (as long as you've got permission from your clients to use the photos!)

Tips:

Use Canva to design your own images - it's super easy to use and free although the paid version gives you an amazing range of options.
Visit Pablo & make your own image to share on social media - it's super easy to use & free! (For more information about Pablo check out this blog post: Create awesome social media images to inspire your veterinary clients

Once you've designed your images you can:

Print them up hand out to every client that visits your practice on Valentine's Day (& a few days either side!)
Post them on Facebook, Instagram & other social media accounts
Add a few more special resources (see below) and email a special 'Valentine's Day Newsletter' to all your clients

If you want some more Valentine's Day images to share with your clients on Social Media visit Pinterest and use the search feature e.g. type in 'Valentine's Day and pets'.

If you don't want to make your own images, feel free to use these:

Some are from Canva Templates & others I've put together myself on Canva.

2. Share some cute links

3. Write your own blog posts

You could write a range of blog posts on the sort of things you can do to show your pet you love them for example:

Make sure they're the corect weight so they're comfortable & can move with ease
Keep their teeth clean and healthy
Feed them a high quality diet
Provide regular exercise

Check out the range of images from Doggone Safe - each one would make a great title for a blog post:

Valentine's Day - every year there's a 14th February!

Once you've put together some promotional ideas for this Valentine's Day you'll find that with just a little tweaking they'll be just as useful for Valentine's Day in 2022, 2023 & so on!
