October’s almost here, international coffee chains are offering pumpkin spiced lattes, and winter is most definitely coming. Halloween is coming too which means you can have some spooktacular fun with your content. I’m also hoping that if you are a retail/product-based business that your Christmas social media strategy is planned and ready to go? You do have a plan – right?!
September. Back to school (thank goodness), back to college and university. The return of International Talk like a Pirate Day on 19/09/2025, shiver me timbers! The shorter days are starting to make themselves more noticeable and the ramp up towards the end of the year (while it might seem too early to be mentioning Christmas, it is coming up and your business needs to be ready). Are you thinking ahead over the next few months?
August is the eight month of the year and is named after the Roman Emperor Augustus, chosen because it is the time of several of his “great triumphs”. However, these days it is known for school summer holidays, ‘silly season’ in the newspapers, and a whooping Bank Holiday to see the summer out at the end of the month.
Ruby, ruby, ruby. July starts the second half of the year with a bang, and its birthstone (my birthstone and favourite gem if anyone is feeling flush) is the ruby symbolizing contentment. Do you have contentment with your content, or still in need of prompts and a chat about how to shine online?
June is nearly here and here’s some ideas to shine online in the approaching midsummer – which is the 21st June and the longest day. We’ve also got Father’s Day, get the novelty mugs and pint glasses at the ready.
May is nearly here, there are two bank holidays, Star Wars Day, excuses to buy coloured pens and pretty notebooks, smiles are encouraged as is mental health awareness. There’s chances to celebrate bees, firemen, local history, museums, nurses, whisky and so much more…read on for more ideas..
It’s April and spring is most definitely here. Is it time to have a spring clean of your content and start to post quality content consistently?
Here’s some ideas and inspiration to help you.
Spring is very nearly here as we are about to enter March. March is Women’s History Month with International Women’s Day on 08/03/2025 (you don’t need a reminder that International Men’s Day is later on in the year, do you?). International Transgender Day of Visibility will be 31/03/2025. These days are excellent prompts to demonstrate your business’s inclusivity and approach to equality.
February is here, so long January. February also returns with the National Storytelling Week running 01/02/2025 to 09/02/2025. Customers and clients buy from businesses they can relate to, so this week is a good time to tell your business story.
Create evergreen content by telling your story, which will also help your audience connect with you and the person behind the social media feed.
