Tap into the sights, sounds, and smells that ground us in the holidays to connect with your customers on an emotional level like this email from the Matador Network:
Hi all,
There is something truly magical about the holiday season—houses decked in stringed lights, mulled wine warming in the kitchen, snowy landscapes draped in white. Regardless if you celebrate or not, Christmas day offers a chance for us all to be present and savor life as the world seems to stop spinning.
Wherever the holidays have led you and no matter how you celebrate this time of year, we hope it’s a time of reflection and rejuvenation. A time to just enjoy the world as it slows—if only briefly.
Extend a little heartfelt warmth and gratitude to the people who keep you in business.
Dear Customers,
As the festive season envelops us in warmth and joy, we want to take a moment to extend our heartfelt wishes to you and your loved ones. 🌟 Merry Christmas from all of us at Campmor!
We hope this holiday season brings you moments of happiness, laughter, and cherished time spent with family and friends. May your days be filled with love and your hearts with gratitude.
In observance of Christmas Day, please note that our retail store and warehouse will be closed on December 25th. We appreciate your understanding as we take this time to celebrate with our families and recharge for the new year.
However, fear not! We’ll be back and ready to assist you with all your outdoor needs on December 26th, following our regular schedule.
Thank you for being a part of the Campmor family. We look forward to continuing to serve you in the coming year and providing you with the best outdoor gear and experiences.
Wishing you a Christmas filled with warmth, wonder, and the magic of the season!
Warm regards,
Campmor Team
