December is all about Christmas when it comes to business. Everyone is talking about Christmas plans, Christmas shopping, Christmas trees, carol singing, patties and more. When it comes to social media for your business, you need to do this too. Christmas is what your audience are talking about. This means that you should be talking about it on your socials too. If you’re not sure what else to share other than “Merry Christmas” then we have some great social media ideas that will help you engage with your audience this December.
- National Christmas Light Day falls on the 1st December. The simple post idea for this is a photo of the Christmas lights on your home, in your business or in the local area.
- Tree Decorating Day is 4th December. Just as with National Christmas Light Day share a photo of your tree. Maybe start a conversation by asking if Christmas trees should have tinsel, be real or fake, or have a star or angel on top?
- 5th December is International Volunteer Day. Try and volunteer for a local charity on this day. Alternatively, you could talk about the volunteering you or your business has been doing over the last year.
- 9th December is Gingerbread Decorating Day. Why not have a competition in the office for the best decorated gingerbread. Your audience on social media can be the judges.
- Christmas Jumper Day is on 12th December. Get the team in Christmas jumpers and a share a photo online. This helps to show the people behind the business name. It’s also as bit of fun!
- 14th December is Free Shipping Day. If you ship items to your customer, find a way to offer free shipping on this day. Do you always offer free shipping? Shout about this too!
These are just some of the social media post ideas that you can use in December. Of course, it’s a good idea to wish your audience a Happy Christmas. You may want to share your Christmas opening hours too.
