Last year, Halloween was not much of a festive holiday around my community. This year things look brighter, many did lose their homes to the economy but in the bright side many have benefit by being able to purchase a home in a community they may have no otherwise been able to afford.

In my opinion Las Vegas / Henderson is a good place to find a deal if you can afford to have your property sit there for a while. Anyhow, this is my Trick or Treat business tip: Promote your business this Halloween with special treats for the kids or parents. Here is how….

If you are giving out candy, place a sticker with  your Store Name, blog, or website store. Kids love stickers, so aside from just giving out candy; sneak in some nice stickers. Of course not to obvious after all they would be your neighbors kids etc….

Or, donate to your church Harvest Festival, community Halloween event, school etc.. Banners and flyers are fine, but unless you spend some serious money for a eye catching banner its not going to do much.Food, such as baked goods are always a hit. Get to a consumers heart through the tummy.  

Thinking of volunteering this time of the year? That is also an opportunity to expose your business. Create some fun and not to obvious T-Shirts for your business. Wear them when out; you never know when the charity you volunteer for might get some Free TV Time.

What are your creative ways to get some traffic?
