Have a great Valentine’s Day, [customer name]! Come visit us soon!”
7. “Valentine’s Day is a day for couples to express their love for one another & grow closer together.

Happy Valentine’s Day from all of us at [your business]!”
8. “At [your business], we understand that Valentine’s Day is a special day. Sometimes it can be hard to figure out how you’re going to spend the holiday, but remember that if all else fails, a trip to Walmart with your significant other can be a lot more fun than it sounds. Don’t skip the flowers and chocolates, though. Happy Valentine’s Day, [customer name]!”
