The Automotive Industry has always been famous to leave each holiday as “just another day” and not include a ton of excitement and fun into each of the holidays for their customers and employees to enjoy!
Mind you, I have been in a few facilities that do things over the top, but, in this blog, I’m talking about the average. Which means, that perhaps this Easter there is a new opportunity in the air to bring out some egg-citement and fun in your Automotive facility! With Easter being just around the corner, it’s important to enjoy the small things that make life and work more meaningful and fun. Embrace this Easter’s holiday spirit and make it memorable. Both for your employees and customers!
Celebrating holidays will not only boost employee loyalty in your automotive facility but also leave a strong impression on your customers. A perfect combo for boosting productivity amongst employees and showing you care about customers!
Prepare for this year’s Easter at your Automotive Facility by reading this article that’s full of joyful ideas on how to make working around Easter fun, enjoyable, and festive!
Time to Decorate! The Festive Ways to Decorate for Easter at your Automotive Facility
Sometimes it’s hard to come up with creative ideas to decorate your automotive facility for Easter and other holidays because it seems like what others do can’t be applied to your business.
But why would we limit Easter decorations only for our home, why wouldn’t we bring that joy to the work as well?
Work is an important part of everyone’s life because we spend so much time there, and Easter at your Automotive Facility deserves to be festive this Easter!
Putting in a little bit of work to decorate and share the joy amongst your employees and customers can get you a long way!
But you have the advantage because there aren’t many in the automotive industry who do it and it will make your automotive business stand out easily! So how can you decorate for Easter at your Automotive Facility so everyone is excited and can’t wait to visit your business to see what you’ve prepared?
- Easter-themed decorations with a dash of automotive sparkle.
You can hang wreaths on the walls and decorate them with automotive-related ornaments. Wreaths are a lot of fun and they’ll grab the attention of everyone who passes by. What better way to leave an impression?
- Bring Easter bunnies, lots of eggs + decorative eggs.
What is Easter without bunnies and eggs? You’ll need tons of them and if there are kids, they’ll enjoy eating chocolate Easter bunnies! Eggs are a great way to add a little bit of healthy competition by organizing an egg hunt, but more about that later. If you want to sweeten the deal (quite literally) check out Easter Egg Candy..
- Serve Easter cookies.
Put them into the mason jars and offer them to both customers and employees. You can also serve them in a bowl or decorated tray.
- Decorate every corner of your facility with Easter centerpieces.
You can also use letters and create words such as Easter, or some quotes and arrange them in hallways and on doors.
I strongly recommend checking out Pinterest to get great ideas about Easter decorations and see how your automotive facility can look festive for this holiday!
Easter Celebration Ideas for your Employees
Customers are the lifeline of your business. But employees are the foundation. And without a strong foundation, you don’t have a viable business. Interpersonal relationships among your employees and you should always be nurtured.
Be the leader your employees need and give them a memorable Easter not only at home but at the workplace, too. It doesn’t always have to be about work – create an atmosphere that will increase productivity and efficiency where people will charge their batteries. Holidays are a great time to do that, and this Easter is the right time to start with celebrating your employees and your automotive business! Here are some ideas for making it unforgettable:
- Organize an Easter Egg hunt for your employees and their families.
Youngsters will love it, and everyone will feel the joy of being among people who are closest to them. If you want to spice it up, even more, you can proclaim winners, and give out rewards. It will create healthy competition and people will laugh and joke about it for the months to come!
- Easter basket raffle is another great idea you should definitely try out.
It will bring your employees closer together and lift the morale!
- DIY decorations.
Devote time to doing something different than the usual job. It will take your mind off work and your employees will be grateful for the break but still have fun while working together on something a little bit different. Of course, combine easter spirit with automotive and make something completely authentic.
- Prepare Easter cookies.
Remember the Easter cookies I’ve mentioned? You don’t have to buy them. Instead, have fun with your employees and make them together!
Easter Gift Ideas for your Customers
Don’t forget your customers! Increase their loyalty to your automotive business and surprise them this Easter! What are some great ways to do so?
- Handmade with love.
Use gifts your employees and you made and give them out to the customers (such as Easter cookies and DIY decorations)
- Decorate & celebrate together.
Ask them to decorate eggs on the spot and maybe hold a competition for the best automotive egg where they can win some reward.
- Partner up and celebrate.
Form partnerships with other automotive businesses and promote each other (for example if you are a collision repair business, partner up with a car wash and hand out a coupon for a free car wash to some of your customers)
- What’s better than a surprise? Easter surprise!
Every time a customer picks up their vehicle, leave a nice Easter surprise in their vehicle. This website offers personalized Easter chocolate bars that are both designed well and tasty! Check it out.
A little kindness will leave a lasting impression on your customers, and they’ll happily return when they need automotive services again. They’ll probably talk about it to their friends which will grant you referrals for the months to come!
Get Involved in your Local Community
Easter is a celebration of life, spring, and what better way to do so than by connecting with people in your local community?
Volunteer for events organized in your local community, share kindness, and show how much you care about making your community a better place.
There are tons of events that take place around Easter, and you can participate in the ones that make the most sense for your automotive business. You’ll connect with great people and give back to the places you all love and cherish!
You’ll have a great time while raising brand awareness for your automotive business. Customers and potential ones will see that your business is trustworthy which will increase your credibility among them!
