OCTOBER 2018 HOLIDAYS FOR SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT
Creating graphics to post on Social Media for various holidays – both traditional and fun – is a great way to engage your followers. And, if you include your website address at the bottom of the graphics it’s a great way to promote your business when the graphics are shared. Last month as I was researching September 2018 holidays I had a “lightbulb moment.” I figured if I find these holidays helpful to create social media content, that other businesses will too. So, I decided to share. Why should you compile your own list when I’ve already done the work? You’re welcome!
Here’s what you can do to create social media content for holidays:
- Look at the list and determine which holidays you’d like to feature.
- Create simple graphics regarding each holiday that include your website address.
- Post them on Social Media the day of or the day before the actual holiday.
To create the graphics, use whatever graphics program you prefer. If you have a program or app on your computer or mobile device that works, use it. If you need a source for royalty-free graphics and photos, a great source is Pixabay. For online design options, try Fotor or Canva.
