Promote Your Business Everyday

There are 365 days (sometimes 366), 52 weeks and 12 months in a year.  Within this time, there are hundreds of national and international holidays, awareness days and promotional events, which small business owners can take advantage of, in order to promote their businesses.

This Month:  December

December is home to over 30 promotional and/or awareness days, weeks and months and holidays.  Below are a few that might help you to promote your business.

Bookstore OwnersRead a New Book Month

Encourage your customers to expand their horizons by reading a new book.  Let them know why your store is the best place to purchase that book.

Toy Store Owners:  Safe Toys and Gifts Month

As various gift giving holidays are right around the corner, many people will be purchasing toys for the children in their lives.  Of course, child safety is very important and no gift giver wants a child to be hurt by the gift he/she gives.

Let consumers know why your toys and gifts are safe.

Gift Shop/Printing Store Owners: Write to a Friend Month

Nowadays, the joy and intimacy of sending and/or receiving a long, hand written letter have been all but replaced by the speed, convenience and brevity of social networking, texting and emails.

Encourage your customers to go back to basics and spend a little more time in your stationary section, and perhaps, make a purchase.

December is also National Made in America Month.  Now is the perfect time to publicize your business’s efforts in producing products and goods in the United States.
