family obligations, and plan a vacation to rejuvenate yourself. Perhaps you

dive with sharks in Cape Town or uncover the many magic of Asia and the
Pacific, there's very much to see and experience. Remember that things can be
lost, discarded or substituted but no matter where your daily life may lead,
your travel experience will always be yours. So waste materials not a

<br>2) The Santa Brand Book
"Santa is a Concept, not an idea. It's an Emotion, not a feeling. It's both
Yesterday and Today. It's Tomorrow as well." That's how this ingenious brand
book from communications consulting firm Quietroom begins. And believe me
when I say the rest of it is just as kooky and wonderfully facetious.
Case in point: Take a look below at this "brand house" that details the core
components of Old Saint Nick's brand strategy. I ... I can't even.
<br>3) Apple Holiday Commercial</b>
Oh, Apple — how you've done it again. Say what you will about the tech
giant, but hot damn, do they know how to churn out one wonderful ad after
another.
The streak stays alive with this touching spot that, once again, shows the
company's a step ahead of the competition when it comes to showing the
usefulness of its products and adding in that human element that draws
people in.
(The use of Cat Power's rendition of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"
certainly bolsters that personal touch Apple is so well-known for adding to
its commercials.)
<br>4) Coke Zero Sweater Generator</b>
Interactive sites are becoming more popular each and every day, and thus,
it's no surprise that some well-known brands are jumping on board with the
marketing concept. Take Coca-Cola for instance.
With this Sweater Generator, it's clear the soda-maker certainly gets that
holiday marketing doesn't need to focus on its product and should be warm,
inviting, and personable.
<br>5) Netflix "Fireplace for Your Home" Trailer
Think of where Netflix was just a couple years ago, when it announced its
ill-fated plans for a second service called Qwikster (which led to
substantial backlash and some poor PR). Today, though, it's a whole
different story.
In addition to awesome original programming (if you're not watching House of
Cards, you should be), it's nailing every aspect of its marketing. Want
proof? Look no further than the fake trailer below.<br>
<br>6) Topshop Pinterest Contest
Conducting a social media contest is a premier way to draw visitors to
your accounts on Facebook and Pinterest. One company that seems to have hit
the mark with its own contest is the clothing retailer Topshop.
With a contest like the one the company created around its #DearTopshop
hashtag, in which users can win various prizes by pinning Topshop items to
their boards, brands can secure not only hefty amounts of traffic to their
social sites, but also garner loyal followers and even customers.<br>
<br>7) John Lewis Christmas Advertisement
Another sentimental promo in the vein of Apple's aforementioned ad comes from
John Lewis and harkens back to the days of the old-school, animated
Christmas specials (A Charlie Brown Christmas, The Velveteen Rabbit, etc.).
The retailer certainly worked some magic with this spot, which has generated
some considerable (and warranted) buzz. And once again, here's another
promo using music to perfection — this time, it's Lily Allen with a lighter
version of Keane's "Somewhere Only We Know." Well done, John Lewis
marketers. Well done.<br>
<br>8) Uncommon Goods
Though not as "sexy" as minute-long commercials, interactive sites, or social
contests, good-ol' email marketing is still a more-than-viable option for
marketers around the holidays. Uncommon Goods understood this, as evidenced by
this appealing email below (which actually displays as an animated GIF in
your inbox).
It's not only clear and concise in its promotional copy, but the brand also
effectively relays the benefits of shopping with the company with its
"urgency" angle: 'We offer quick shipping, just in time for the 25th.' Plus,
the animated GIF shows you when you can place your order to receive your
gifts in time for Christmas.
