WHAT’S NEW
JA-NUARY IS JA-MPACKED WITH CONTENT

WHAT’S UP THIS WEEK
DECEMBER 26 – NATIONAL THANK-YOU NOTE DAY
Christmas is done. Today we hunker down and write the thank-you cards. In the spirit of #HolidayFun, why not share some cheeky posts and channel the inner-Grinch’s in your followers! #ThankYouNoteDay
DECEMBER 26-31 – KWANZAA
No better time than to bring the community closer together than by celebrating the African American culture and traditions. The #Holidays is an ideal time to promote solidarity with every community in the U.S. Show your support! Remember small gestures lead to loyal followers. #HappyKwanzaa #HeriZaKwanzaa
DECEMBER 27 – CUT-OUT SNOWFLAKE DAY
Today, in other words, is another excuse for #FamilyFun. Encourage followers to sit with their kids or friends and cut-out snowflakes. Why not try a fun competition – ask them to upload their creative snowflakes for a chance to win gift cards or services! #CutOutSnowflakeDay
DECEMBER 28 – NATIONAL CARD PLAYING DAY
With the Holidays in full swing, family time means eating and playing cards! The best part of holiday card playing is watching our grandparents go for the win (at all costs)! For businesses, maybe do a card draw in-store – every customer picks a card (each card is labelled with a discount)! Get in on the fun! #CardPlayingDay
DECEMBER 31 – NEW YEAR’S EVE
Chances are every single one of your followers is celebrating this day! Take advantage by wishing them well or reminding them of what’s coming up in the new year – exciting sales, enticing promos and/or awesome tips. #HappyNewYearsEve #NYE2016
JANUARY 1 – NEW YEAR’S DAY
It’s one of the only days that almost everyone is not working and in all likelihood they are browsing their newsfeeds. First and foremost, wish them a #HappyNewYears and then slowly get them ready for the new year with resolutions and motivational posts.
