Secure your spot today!

November 19, 2014

The holidays are less than 2 months away (but WHO IS counting?!?) and Macaroni Kid subscribers are already looking for that special gift for their family, friends, teachers, and colleagues.

Macaroni Kid is publishing this special holiday gift guide starting December 3. If you have a business (large, small, on-line, home-based), then you'll want to get in on this! Advertise your holiday deals in the spotlight this holiday season through Mac Kid. This guide gives you busy MK parents a chance to check off some Holiday shopping while supporting local businesses (including Macaroni Kid). Please share this opportunity with your friends and the owners of your favorite local businesses. 

Here is a brief description of what is included:

  • listing in the Holiday Gift Guide, that lists all of your pertinent information, plus up to 3 images, and products or services you'd like to promote for the holidays. 
  • listing in a recurring article on Mac Kid, that will run continuously from December 3-December 24, 2014.
  • an ad on the Mac Kid website that leads to the business directory (where all your information will be) when clicked.
  • inclusion in the business directory all next year 2015.
  • featured on the Macaroni Kid facebook page

You will also have the option for review and giveaway in addition to your business listing in the Holiday Gift Guide.  Doing this will give you your own lead article. Item needs to be approved at the discretion of Mac Kid publisher. This is on a first come first serve basis. There are only so many weeks to run giveaways so get in touch with me now!

This is a great way to increase your presence in the community and a wonderful, inexpensive way to advertise! What can you advertise? Here are some ideas:

  • Special holiday gift card giveaways (ex.: buy $25 worth of gift cards, get $5 free)
  • Black Friday and Cyber Monday specials
  • Christmas deals and sales
  • Christmas gifts for the family
  • Stocking stuffers
  • Winter-related services
  • New products

The 2014 Holiday Guide is a unique opportunity to reach a very targeted audience. This is a wonderful way to advertise your business for FOUR WEEKS! Businesses will be listed alphabetically. 

If you would like your business to be included please fill out this form.  

*Home based businesses please note--I will only accept ONE consultant/rep per company (one Mary Kay rep, one Thirty-one rep, etc.), and this will be on a first-come basis. I will, however, accept multiple companies who are offering a different product (Stella and Dot, Premier Jewelry, Silpada, etc). You must complete the form in order to secure your spot. Please email heathers@macaronikid.com with any question.
