Seven March Holidays to Create Content Around
Feel like you have nothing to talk about with editors this spring?
No new products? No business updates? No partnership announcements? No worries!
There are a plethora of national holidays every month that provide ample opportunities to build content.
These built-in holidays range in categories and industries from food to pets to cause awareness and some are sure to align with your brand’s product or service. These holidays offer easy opportunities to generate story ideas, from blog posts to pitching the media, and building social content around.
A few March holidays to keep in mind include:
Women’s History Month / March 8, International Women’s Day: If you’re a woman-owned business, this is the perfect time to promote yourself, especially if you created a business around a solution for other women that you saw lacking in the market. For social media, do a roundup of other female-owned businesses you love.
National Nutrition Month: Are you a food or beverage brand? National Nutrition Month is a great time to highlight the nutritional value of your products, as well as your own expertise if you are a nutritionist. Create an educational weekly series for the month!
March 4th, National Employee Appreciation Day: Always falling on the first Friday in March, this holiday is the perfect time for you to show your team some love! Make a social reel about the team and all they do for the business.
March 17th, St. Patrick’s Day: Have any green products? Or a St. Paddy’s sale? Share it out! Do a social giveaway where a follower can “get lucky” and win a freebie.
March 18th, National Awkward Moments Day: Great for a pitch to the media or social media, share an awkward learning experience you had as a business owner and what it taught you. Award moments are crucial to “live and learn!”
March 20th, First day of Spring: Hello flowers, picnics, wardrobe refreshes, and playful makeup! How can you tie your brand to the kickoff of Springtime?
March 21st, National Fragrance Day: Does your brand have a unique fragrance? Pitch it to the media for a roundup of the best products for the holiday. Share where the scent inspiration comes from.
