How To: Create Holiday Content For Your Business

Have you ever considered incorporating holidays into your content strategy? You should. For starters, people are more likely to spend money during a holiday season (even the made-up social media holidays!)`

Celebrating a holiday can serve as an expression of your brand's values and community involvement.

There are a variety of ways your brand can intentionally incorporate holidays into its social media strategy. Check out the tips below:


FACEBOOK

Donโ€™t sleep--Facebook is still one of the leading platforms in terms of engaged users. Facebook is great for engaging with niched down communities. If your community is family-friendly try posting DIY crafts for kids. If your community is filled with fellow business owners, try sharing a lead magnet idea or a sale.

- Discounts or sales

- Curated playlist or watchlist

- Costume contests
