3 Questions to ask yourself before creating your calendar

  1. Is this holiday relevant to my brand? It is best to pick and choose the holidays that will fulfill your end goal. Some holidays are perfect for your type of business and others will have not relevance at all. For example, a pizza joint probably wouldn't plan a campaign around Vitamin C Day, but Pizza Party Day should be huge!
  2. How much is too much? It is important to give your customers time between campaigns. Don't do too many or your brand could become annoying to some subscribers. Just give them enough to strengthen your brand and keep it top-of-mind.
  3. Which marketing methods will work best? If you don't know the answer to this yet, now is the perfect time to figure it out. Plan out your campaigns evenly and consistently. Mark your best campaigns with a certain color or other indicators, then go back and make choices for the next month, quarter or year. We strongly suggest SMS and MMS marketing as the best, most effective form of customer engagement.
