Baby, it’s cold outside and I couldn’t be happier! lol
Now while most people loathe winter, I am 100% on board with Jack Frost. After 10 years in the south, I couldn’t have been happier to wake-up on Thanksgiving to snow. So while we all embrace wearing many layers and start working on our winter bod from all the hot cocoa, we need to also be keeping up with our social media calendars.
Because I know you are a smart content planner, you’ve got your holiday marketing on point with killer posts, converting landing pages, and emails that are to die for (if not go here, listen, do. You’re welcome!) So we are focusing on the OTHER things that are happening in December to help your marketing not be red-o-cromatic

Gift guide are the bee’s knees during the holidays. These are not only a great click-bait, but they are really fun too! Check out this article on how to make a gift guide, but basically, make a list of your favorite products that are relatable to your business that would also make for a great gift. Make sure to include your product, make some sweet images, post and boom! watch the view roll in.
In the event you have been living under a rock the past year, Star Wars episode 8, Last Jedi comes out December 15th. I convinced everyone as a Star Wars story so share it! Post pictures (old or new), dress-up, just have a jedi-of-a-good time connecting with your followers and customers with this super fun pop culture event.
Share your holiday traditions. Are you a baking queen or the decorating type? What do you guys do every year? What do you love about Christmas? Whatever your holiday story is, share it! posting pictures, do a Live video, ask questions, get involved with this. The holidays aren’t always about stuff, its about how they make you feel. So have fun with it and share those moments that are special to you.
And lastly, start thinking about your 2018 goals. Its never too early to start putting together a plan for the new year. Crowdsource your ideas with your community by asking them what they want to see you do and what they want from your business. Give the people what they want.
Ok, now for the good stuff. Here is this month content calendar. If you need me, I’ll be snuggling with my puppy drinking cocoa and watching Netflix. Peace! 🎅 🎄
