Imagine ringing in the New Year with a sense of accomplishment, knowing that your printable business had its most successful holiday season yet.

Sounds dreamy, doesn't it?

In this section, we'll dive into the types of printables that are especially relevant during the holiday season and how you can market them effectively. Let's make this holiday season a win-win for you and your customers

Types of Printables to Focus On

Games and Activities for Kids

Why it's Important: Engaging the younger audience can bring joy and increase your customer base - parents are always looking for ways to keep their kids entertained during the holidays.

Examples
  • Holiday-Themed Coloring Pages: Consider incorporating popular characters like Santa, reindeer, and popular themes that are trending

  • Mazes and Puzzles: Create mazes that lead to a Christmas tree or puzzles that form a Hanukkah menorah.

  • Educational Games: Think about printables that teach kids about the history or meaning behind different holidays.

If you'd like to make some kids stuff but it seems like a lot - and it IS a lot - we can recommend a lovely tool developed by a woman whose work we love, Amber Jalink. It's an online tool that has literally hundreds of layouts and images that make it so easy to create activity books, and it's less than $30.


Planners for Big Events

Why it's Important: The holiday season is packed with events, and planners can help your customers stay organized.

Examples
  • Christmas Party Planners: Include sections for guest lists, menu planning, and decorations.

  • Holiday Meal Planners: Offer templates that help with grocery lists and cooking schedules.

  • Gift Trackers: Create a tracker that helps people keep tabs on gifts they've bought, wrapped, and sent. (you’ll find one in our Christmas Planner)

New Year's Resolution Topics

Why it's Important: The New Year is a time for reflection and setting new goals. Providing tools to help can be incredibly valuable.

Examples
  • Goal-Setting Templates: Offer a step-by-step guide to setting SMART goals.

  • Habit Trackers: Design a tracker that monitors daily or weekly progress.

  • Vision Boards: Create a printable template where people can paste images and quotes that inspire them for the coming year.

  • New Year Planner: design one now so people have it ahead of time, ready to say goodbye to the old year and hello to the new.
