Small Business Marketing - Unusual Holidays & Special Days

We've already celebrated some special days in March including International Women's Day and the International Day of Awesomeness.

I missed the 20th anniversary of Pi Day, beloved of math geeks everywhere on March 14th. But to make up for it, here is a great resource for holidays and celebratory months around the world, many of them quite unusual and bizarre.

How about these? March is

  • Irish American Month
  • Music in Our Schools Month
  • National Craft Month
  • National Frozen Food Month
  • National Nutrition Month
  • National Peanut Monthbutton_event.png
  • National Women's History Month

And still to come in March

17 Saint Patrick's Day

20 International Earth Day

24 National Chocolate Covered Raisin Day

29 National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day

30 I am in Control Day

30 Take a Walk in the Park Day

Can you take any of these special celebrations and have some fun with them in your business?

You can also use special days for serious marketing.

Shannon Cherry is a business owner who has registered National Be Heard Day, to help small businesses be heard with simple but effective marketing ideas.

She offers some free resources you can access if you visit her site... offer closes soon.

  • How do you celebrate special days in your business... with staff or for promotion?
