It’s that time of year when September breezes in, bringing pumpkin spice lattes, cozy sweaters, and a whole treasure chest of quirky social media opportunities. You’ve got your unique small business – now, let’s make it shine brighter than a disco ball in a funhouse! 🕺✨
September 1: “Emma M. Nut Day”: Who’s Emma M. Nut? Nobody knows, but it’s an excellent excuse to go nuts (pun intended) with your nutty products! Post goofy nut-related memes, share nutty facts, and watch your engagement go nutty too! 🥜😂
September 5: “International Beard Day”: Even if your business isn’t beard-related, there’s room for a beard-tastic post. Maybe you have a bearded mascot or a bearded team member willing to show off their facial fuzz. The hairier, the better! 👨🧔
September 13: “Positive Thinking Day”: Time to spread some positivity! Share uplifting quotes, stories of overcoming challenges, or how your business is spreading good vibes. Remember, your small business is a beacon of positivity in this world! 🌟😃
September 16: “National Play-Doh Day”: Get your hands dirty (virtually) and craft some Play-Doh masterpieces. Challenge your followers to create their own mini sculptures. The more colorful, the better! 🌈🎨
September 21: “Mini Golf Day”: Even if you don’t run a mini-golf course, you can have a virtual putt-putt tournament. Get creative with mini-golf-themed posts and maybe even a prize for the best mini-golf hole design! ⛳🏌️♂️
September 26: “Love Note Day”: Spread love like confetti! Share heartfelt messages from your customers or colleagues. Encourage your followers to leave love notes in the comments. Bonus points if you doodle a love note to your favorite product! 💖💌
September 30: “International Podcast Day”: If you’ve got a podcast or love listening to them, today’s your day! Share your favorite episodes, invite followers to share theirs, and maybe even host a mini-podcast party. 🎙️🎧
Remember, social media is your stage, and your small business is the star of the show. Be quirky, be yourself, and let your business’s personality shine. With these offbeat September events, your small business will be the life of the virtual party!
So, grab your social media props and dance your way through September. Your followers are ready to groove to your small business’s quirky beat! 🎉💃 If you need ideas for the rest of the year, don’t forget that we created a 12-month long calendar set up for you, divided into Weeks and their respective events.
