The holiday dust has finally settled, and winter cabin fever is officially setting in. Spring isn’t just about cleaning; it’s about getting off the couch and making memories!
Valentine’s Day is literally around the corner, and Spring Break is hot on its heels! Customers are shifting from “hibernate mode” to “adventure mode.” They are looking for “New Year, New Experiences,” romantic date nights, and spring break outings. The only question is: will your DealMagik digital storefront be ready when they start searching for things to do?
Experience providers-from wineries and tour guides to cooking schools and adventure parks—on DealMagik are already prepping for the influx of adventure seekers. Here’s how to make sure your business stands out and captures those memory-makers:
1. Unleash Seasonal Showstoppers
Your standard city tour or wine tasting is a great foundation, but holidays are the time to shine with unique, limited-time events!
- Action: Add new, seasonal experiences to your storefront. This is the perfect time to attract new locals and tourists with something they haven’t seen before—think a “Cupid’s Chocolate & Wine Pairing Class”, a “Galantine’s Ghost Tour”, or a “Spring Bloom Harbour Cruise”. Give them a reason to book now.
2. Hit the “Easy Button” with Experience Bundles
Busy shoppers love a “one-click” date night or family outing solution. Make it easy for those who may not be familiar with your venue to buy experiences as gifts—a complete day out without the guesswork.
- Action:Create ticket + add-on bundles. Don’t just sell a high-ropes ticket; sell the “Adrenaline Junkie Package” (Admission + GoPro rental + snack voucher). Don’t just sell a cooking class; sell a “Date Night in Italy” bundle (Class for two + a bottle of wine).
DealMagik makes it seamless for customers to buy a complete adventure in a single online transaction whether they are looking for a new local spot or visiting and looking for adventure!
3. The Gift That Keeps on Giving: Season Passes & Series
This is a huge opportunity for increasing predictable revenue. Subscriptions or passes make incredible, high-value gifts for Valentine’s Day, Spring Break, Summer Vacation – keeping your regulars coming back time and again!
- Action: Package your experiences into memberships or series. Think “The 2026 Summer Season Pass” for your adventure park, a “Quarterly Wine Club Membership,” or a “4-Week Culinary Masterclass Series.” Selling these upfront on DealMagik secures revenue and keeps your venue top-of-mind for the client all year long.
