On the Fourteenth Day of Christmas, We’re Repackaging Old Content for New Wins! 🎄♻️
Creating fresh, original content for the holiday season can be as daunting as untangling a mess of Christmas lights. But here’s the good news: you don’t always need to start from scratch. Repackaging existing content with a festive twist is a savvy way to save time, stretch resources, and keep your audience engaged.
Here’s how to take your past blogs, videos, and campaigns and turn them into holiday magic.
1. Refresh Old Blog Posts 📖🎅
Give your evergreen content a seasonal twist by reworking the title, intro, and imagery to fit the holiday theme.
👉 DO THIS: Reframe timeless tips with a festive angle to stay relevant for the season.
❌ AVOID THIS: Simply changing the title without updating the content to reflect the holiday vibe.
2. Revitalize Video Content 🎥✨
Take past tutorials, product demos, or explainer videos and dress them up with holiday visuals and messaging.
👉 DO THIS: Add seasonal intros, overlays, and music to create a holiday feel.

3. Reimagine Past Campaigns 🎄🎁
Breathe new life into successful old campaigns by tweaking messaging and visuals to align with holiday trends.
👉 DO THIS: Update offers, slogans, and images to reflect holiday themes and emotions.
❌ AVOID THIS: Repeating campaigns word-for-word without tailoring them to seasonal needs.
4. Bundle Content into Holiday Giveaways 🎁🎄
Combine existing eBooks, guides, or templates into holiday-themed resources to engage your audience.
👉 DO THIS: Compile valuable assets into a festive package that addresses seasonal challenges.
❌ AVOID THIS: Offering generic bundles without any holiday context or creativity.
5. Repurpose Testimonials and Success Stories ❤️📖
Showcase how your products or services made a difference during past holiday seasons.
👉 DO THIS: Feature customer feedback with festive visuals and captions.
❌ AVOID THIS: Relying on bland testimonials without giving them seasonal relevance.
6. Create a “Best Of” Collection 📋✨
Highlight your most popular content of the year as a curated holiday wrap-up for your audience.
👉 DO THIS: Share a year-end collection with a seasonal message to extend its value.
❌ AVOID THIS: Listing old content without organizing it into a cohesive holiday theme.
